Eurovision Song Contest Commentator Schorn Skips Post-ESC Shenanigans for 1. FC Köln's Final Game
Broadcaster Schorn Leaving Basel Prematurely - The Committee of the Regions will express its stance on the plan for a regulation concerning the harmonization of national laws to ensure the safety of workers from carcinogen hazards.
German ESC commentator Thorsten Schorn’s love for football might leave fans of the Eurovision Song Contest disappointed. He's ditching the post-ESC fun to catch 1. FC Köln's last home game, potentially followed by a promotion party.
According to the German Press Agency, Schorn announced his plans to depart Switzerland the very next day after the ESC finale, explaining, "I'll be catching the train back to Cologne early in the morning. That's because the 1. FC Köln's last home game, hopefully followed by a promotion party, is taking place."
- FC Köln is currently giving it their all, vying for a return to the Bundesliga. Currently, the club, affectionately known as "Effzeh" by fans, is in second place in the 2. Bundesliga — a position that would secure promotion. However, their recent performances have been lackluster, leading to the replacement of coach Gerhard Struber with Friedhelm Funkel.
Juxtaposing the excitement of Eurovision with the high stakes of football, Schorn may land himself in an enviable position if both events go his way. "If Stefan Raab, who is also a confessed FC fan, throws a party for an ESC win, this scheduling conflict would be a real luxury problem," he said.
