Internal USI soccer duel
On July 3, 2025, the USI indoor kickers and their selection met a selection of the USI artificial turf kickers at the SV Donau sports field in Kneipgasse. Two 30-minute matches were played in sweltering heat. Nevertheless, both teams gave their all in these conditions. In the end, the indoor footballers were able to celebrate. The match was refereed by (perhaps) future FIFA referee Klaus RISS. You couldn’t tell it was too hot for him. Afterwards, we went to the canteen of the Donau sports club and ended the evening together.
