All of a sudden it was completely dark in the Red Bull Arena.

In the DFB Cup quarter-final between defending champions RB Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund, the floodlights suddenly went out for a few seconds with a quarter of an hour to go. The 47,069 fans took it with humour on Wednesday evening in Leipzig. Especially when the lights went out again for a few seconds immediately afterwards. The game was resumed after the mini-interruption with full lighting and the score at 1:0 for the Saxon hosts with a referee’s ball.
