A look behind the scenes for the match against SC Verl reveals: the scoreboard is controlled by an RWE employee. From a place in the stadium where the video wall is exactly in the field of vision, what is happening on the pitch is linked to the corresponding images. Via a panel, the controlling employee also has the opportunity to select certain events, such as a goal or the display of Corona hygiene rules, by quick selection. There's no question about it: this task requires an eagle eye, after all, every situation on the pitch has to be assigned to the corresponding player in a fraction of a second so that it can then be passed on correctly to the Red and Whites in the stadium.

The digital glow above the green of Hafenstraße not only displays text and logos, as part of the Rot-Weiss Essen media day, pictures of the players were also made to match match events. This way, Christian Neidhart's team will hopefully celebrate goals frequently this season not only with the fans from the field, but also with matching imagery on the digital scoreboard.
