Since the fall 2010 the Dortmund football club BVB 09 was the top team of the German Premium Football League and was never topped since then. 320,000 wanted to attend the last match, the stadium only has a capacity of a little more than 80,000. Some 12,000 could attend a public viewing in the Westfalenhalle nearby the Stadium. Before the match began thousands came back from trying to get a spot in the public viewing - no chance at all.
