On Saturday, May 31, 2025, the famous German streamer Simon “GamerBrother” Schildgen actually wanted to go to the Champions League final in Munich for EA FC 25. However, he was stuck in Düsseldorf. Spontaneously, he made it possible for a fan and his father to have an unforgettable evening.
Why did the streamer miss the final? GamerBrother actually planned to fly from Düsseldorf Airport to Munich on the afternoon of May 31, 2025, to watch the Champions League final between Inter Milan and Paris Saint-Germain at the Allianz Arena.
Due to poor weather conditions with rain and thunderstorms, the streamer’s flight kept getting delayed. At 16:40, GamerBrother posted the following on X:
The streamer’s flight was canceled, making it nearly impossible to arrive in Munich on time. Despite his sadness over the situation (“maximum breakdown”), the streamer immediately thought of his community and called on his followers on X to apply for the free ticket.
The priority should be for people who are from Munich and have time. He would make the ticket available to a fan via app.
GamerBrother drives a fan and father crazy
Who won the final ticket? Over 400 users commented on GamerBrother’s X status. Among the numerous applicants, user arda.sab won the ticket with the following comment:
- “Dude, what a crap. I have a ticket, could then go with dad …” (via X)
The streamer replied:
- “Then your dad is going to a UCL final today, I would say” (via X). He also posted a picture showing the confirmation that the ticket had been successfully transferred.
The user could hardly believe his luck and thanked GamerBrother on X, saying that his dad would go crazy.
Why GamerBrother chose this fan along with the comment remains speculative. Perhaps he felt reminded of his own father through the story of the shared stadium visit. The streamer is a regular stadium visitor and likes to show his father as a frequent companion in his vlogs on YouTube.
Many fans who did not receive the final ticket congratulated the winner fairly and wished him and his dad a lot of fun.
GamerBrother watched the final, which Paris Saint-Germain won 5-0, at home on the TV screen. Perhaps it was a small consolation that the final turned out to be relatively one-sided and the goals only fell on one side. Another streamer for EA FC 25 even scored over 40 goals in one game, but he was not in the mood for celebrating.
