Dynamo Dresden could be facing a large compensation payment. After the riots at the match against SpVgg Bayreuth on 1 October this year, the damages incurred amount to 31,300 euros, as the “Nordbayerischer Kurier” reported on Thursday, citing a list of damages from the city of Bayreuth. Dynamo’s press spokesman Marcel Devantier was unable to confirm this sum when asked by the Deutsche Presse-Agentur on Thursday.

During the match, there had been riots in the Dresden block, including with the police. Afterwards, commercial director Jürgen Wehlend described the destruction caused by some Dynamo supporters, who were also on a special train, as “sheer anarchy”. 14 people were injured.

In addition to paying damages to the city of Bayreuth, Dynamo faces further financial compensation. Wehlend put the damage to property in a demolished special train at “more than 50,000 euros”.

The team, which was relegated from the second division, is in eleventh place in the table of penalties in the third division. For misconduct during and in the vicinity of matches in the stadium, the Dresden team has so far had to pay 2600 euros for two incidents.

“Table leader” in the penalty table in the 2022/2023 third division season, however, is TSV 1860 München. The club has already experienced eight incidents and a total fine of 47,300 euros in this still young season. Behind them is Rot-Weiss Essen with fines totalling 25,000 euros. They are followed by Hallescher FC (five incidents, 19,900 euros), Waldhof Mannheim (two incidents, 17,300 euros), 1. FC Saarbrücken (three incidents, 14,700 euros) and VfL Osnabrück (four incidents, 11,950 euros).

Borussia Dortmund II (two incidents, 9800 euros), MSV Duisburg (three incidents, 7650 euros), and SC Verl (one incident, 350 euros) have also accumulated fines. The most exemplary fans so far are the clubs of Viktoria Köln, FSV Zwickau, SV Wehen Wiesbaden, Spielvereinigung Bayreuth and frontrunners Spielvereinigung Elversberg. These five clubs have not yet had to transfer a single euro to the DFB’s bank account this season.
