Bayern Munich’s Game With Union Berlin Called Off Due to Snow Chaos

• Bayern Munich against Union Berlin has been postponed due to extreme snowfall
• The city of Munich has been hit by heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures this weekend
• Local transport had also been cancelled due to the inclement weather

Heavy snowfall led to the cancellation of Bayern Munich's home game against Union Berlin on Saturday.

Munich and southern Germany are experiencing transport chaos due to cold weather, snowfall, and ice.

“It was decided not to play the game because of the security risks for all involved,” Union said in a statement via Skysports.

The German soccer federation reported that the decision not to host the game was made by stadium management "due to persistent heavy snowfall."

This call followed a winter storm that blanketed southern Germany and portions of Austria and Switzerland, disrupting travel throughout the region.
