Had this been the case, the objection would have been done."[17] The Federal Court of the German Football Association confirmed the Sports Court decision.[19] Hertha BSC can appeal the decision to the Sports Court for Arbitration.[19] After the final verdict, Hertha BSC players went on vacation while Fortuna Düsseldorf players were not immediately released for vacation.[20]
