Til minde om Mathias – en ven, der aldrig bliver glemt

Den 22. september 2026 mistede vi Mathias i en tragisk trafikulykke. Et liv blev alt for tidligt revet væk, og tilbage står familie, venner og alle dem, der havde fornøjelsen af at møde ham, med en sorg, der er svær at sætte ord på.

Mathias var noget helt særligt. En ægte glædesspreder, der bragte smil, latter og liv med sig, hvor end han kom. Han var et menneske uden fjender, en ven, der var elsket af alle omkring sig, og en person, der havde en helt særlig evne til at få andre til at føle sig velkomne. For Mathias handlede relationer ikke blot om at mødes – det handlede om at skabe forbindelser, der varede ved. Han byggede stærke og langvarige venskaber med de mennesker, han mødte på sin vej, og han efterlod et indtryk, som ikke forsvinder, bare fordi tiden sammen blev alt for kort.

En stor del af Mathias’ liv og identitet var hans kærlighed til fodbolden. Især F.C. København og Hamburger SV havde en helt særlig plads i hans hjerte. Hans passion rakte langt ud over de 90 minutter på tribunen. For fodbolden var et fællesskab, en livsstil og at leve et liv efter et højere mål. Gennem sin passion blev han en del af noget større, og selvom hans liv blev alt for kort, har han sat et varigt præg på den københavnske fanscene. Hans engagement, hans venskaber og hans tilstedeværelse vil fortsat leve videre blandt alle os, der delte tribunerne, oplevelserne, udebaneturene og kærligheden til klubberne med ham.

Det er svært at forstå, at vi ikke længere skal møde Mathias på vores vej. Men midt i sorgen står én ting klart: Mathias satte spor. Dybe spor. I sine venners liv, i fællesskaberne omkring fodbolden og fælles hos alle dem, der var så heldige at lære ham at kende.

Denne indsamling er oprettet i kærlighed til Mathias familie og i ønsket om at stå sammen i en svær tid og tage den økonomiske ekstra omkostning. Den skal være en måde at vise omsorg og støtte på og hjælpe med at skabe plads til at mindes et menneske, der betød så meget for så mange.

Mathias fik ikke det lange liv, han fortjente. Men han nåede at skabe venskaber, oplevelser og minder, der vil leve videre i mange år fremover.

Nogle mennesker er kun en del af vores liv i alt for kort tid. Men de kan sætte spor, der varer hele livet. Mathias var én af dem.

Æret være Mathias’ minde

In Memory of Mathias – A Friend Who Will Never Be Forgotten

On the 22nd Setpember 2026, we lost Mathias in a tragic traffic accident. A life was taken far too soon, leaving behind family, friends, and everyone who had the privilege of meeting him, all struggling with a grief that is difficult to put into words.

Mathias was someone truly special. A genuine source of joy who brought smiles, laughter, and life wherever he went. He was a man without enemies, a friend loved by everyone around him, and someone with a rare ability to make others feel welcome. For Mathias, relationships were about more than simply meeting people – they were about building connections that lasted. He formed strong, lasting friendships with the people he met along the way, leaving an impression that will not fade simply because our time with him was far too short.

A huge part of Mathias’ life and identity was his love of football. F.C. Copenhagen and Hamburger SV, in particular, held a very special place in his heart. His passion extended far beyond the 90 minutes in the stands. Football was a community, a way of life, and a commitment to something greater than oneself. Through his passion, he became part of something bigger, and although his life was cut far too short, he has left a lasting mark on Copenhagen’s football fan scene. His dedication, friendships, and presence will live on among all of us who shared the stands, the experiences, the away trips, and our love for the clubs with him.

It is difficult to comprehend that we will no longer cross paths with Mathias. Yet, in the midst of our grief, one thing remains clear: Mathias left his mark. A profound mark. On the lives of his friends, on the communities built around football, and on everyone who was fortunate enough to know him.

This fundraiser has been created out of love for Mathias family, and out of a desire to stand together during an incredibly difficult time. It is a way for us to show our care and support and to ease the financial burden.

Mathias did not get the long life he deserved. But he created friendships, experiences, and memories that will live on for many years to come.

Some people are part of our lives for far too short a time, yet they leave a mark that lasts a lifetime. Mathias was one of those people.

May Mathias rest in peace and may his memory live on forever.
