At the Fanfest in Dortmund, the focus will also be on eSports during the European Championship. Together with the FLVW, a bridge will be built between real and virtual sport
The soccer euphoria is huge in Germany these days. Hundreds of thousands of people have been and continue to be drawn to the country’s fan miles, including a very special offshoot in Dortmund. In addition to real soccer, eFootball also takes center stage in the home of BVB. An esports area set up especially for virtual soccer makes it possible
All good things come in threes
The Football and Athletics Association of Westphalia (FLVW) is also involved and wants to use the opportunity to bring gaming and sport together. A special kind of triathlon is planned, in which 12 teams from FLVW clubs will take part and compete in real and virtual soccer
This is made possible by the game mode in which the teams of three will compete for the tournament victory on July 13. A match consists of three games in total, two of them on the console and one on the streetkick court next door. While a singles and a doubles match will be played on the console, it will be three-on-three on the real leather. The winner is the one who wins the overall score
City clash for supremacy in the district
One day later, on the day of the European Championship final, things will get really hot again in Dortmund. The big Revierderby against Schalke 04 is on the agenda. A match that has been sorely missed in the Bundesliga since Schalke’s relegation, FC 24 will at least be able to decide who has the edge in the Pott.
To answer this question, it will be possible to play against players from the Fan Zone in Gelsenkirchen between 5 and 7 pm. There are no restrictions on participation. Anyone can represent their regional favorite and contribute to a possible victory. The winner will be determined by the number of games won. But even without an overall victory, a successful game will guarantee you a small prize on site
