Hansa Rostock Fans Flood London, Matchday Scarves Run Out

Thousands of Hansa Rostock fans have traveled to Watford, England for a friendly match against FC Watford, causing a shortage of official matchday scarves. Only about 1,200 scarves were produced for the estimated 6,000 traveling supporters. Fans have arrived by car, ferry, and plane from across Germany, with some driving through the night from Brandenburg. The fan shop employee noted high demand and the possibility of ordering more. The article highlights the extraordinary dedication of Hansa supporters, including Lutz Bartel who drove 1,300 kilometers with his family, and Kay from Lübeck who booked flights for his children's first London visit. The hosts were reportedly surprised by the scale of the blue-and-white invasion.
