Overview
- Al-Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo departed Austria on July 30, five days ahead of schedule, after heavy downpours left the training grounds waterlogged following their lone test match against Toulouse.
- Hundreds of fans besieged Hotel Brandlhof each day during the camp, overwhelming public areas and disrupting the team’s privacy.
- Security gaps allowed children and other supporters to reach Ronaldo’s suite, leading him to threaten calling police to regain order.
- Hotel owner Alexander Strobl blamed the club for not reserving an exclusive wing and announced stricter access controls before Borussia Dortmund’s arrival.
- Daniel Fischer of organizer Onside said security and logistics plans will be overhauled ahead of the hotel’s next occupants.
