#Wittels- Posted November 23, 2021 Posted November 23, 2021 Canceled Matches, Quarantined Players, and Arguments Around COVID-19 Vaccine Mandates Canceled matches, quarantined players, and arguments surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine mandates. Sport in Germany is dealing with further disruptions as the country goes through a fourth wave of coronavirus infections. One of the Bundesliga's top clubs, Bayern Munich, had five players in quarantine on Monday due to not being vaccinated against the disease and two more in isolation after they contracted COVID-19. And everything points to an internal conflict because the club would contemplate deducting the salary of players who are not vaccinated - Joshua Kimmich, Serge Gnabry, Jamal Musiala, Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting and Michael Cuisance - given that their reluctance to get vaccinated puts you at greater risk of missing matches. "It's obvious," said Bayern coach Julian Nagelsmann, who missed four team games after contracting the disease despite being vaccinated. Bayern suffered an unexpected defeat while visiting Augsburg on Friday, with Kimmich absent. It is feared that players who are not vaccinated may miss the match against Borussia Dortmund scheduled for December 4. Dortmund are one point behind Bayern in the Bundesliga table and their team is fully vaccinated or recovered from the disease. Dortmund reported the vaccination status of their players on Monday, then the positive result of Thorgan Hazard. No other player has been affected. Without having several players, Bayern will also have fewer fans for their home games. Bavarian state authorities cut capacity for all sporting events to 25% in an attempt to bring the spike in infections under control. The situation is worse in the state of Saxony, which has completely banned the presence of the public to contain the infections. The World Cup Ski Jumping event in Klingenthal will be staged without spectators from December 9-12. Leipzig Dínamo Dresden and Erzgebirge Aue football clubs will play their home matches behind closed doors.
