Two days before the start of the European Championship
ÖFB team wants to “clear its head” with world star
An unexpected concert visit awaits Austria's national team just two days before their European Championship opener against France. Team boss Ralf Rangnick has organized tickets for his entire squad and some of the coaching staff for a show by British rock legend Rod Stewart in Berlin on 15 June.
The following day, the ÖFB squad will travel from their European Championship quarters in the German capital to Düsseldorf for the match against the favored French.
"It's great to clear our heads a bit before we really get going," said attacker Christoph Baumgartner after the successful European Championship test against Serbia (2:1) in Vienna on Tuesday. "It's not quite my generation now, I have to be honest," said the 24-year-old. But Stewart, 79 years old and an ardent soccer fan, is a world star. "It will certainly be a cool atmosphere, so we're looking forward to it."
