Saturday’s acrimonious German Cup match between bitter rivals Dynamo Dresden and Red Bull Leipzig was momentarily interrupted when a lump of livestock was hurled onto the pitch.
The two sides, who share a long and caustic history, met at Dresden’s stadium in the first round of the DFB-Pokal, with the home fans once again letting their collective disdain for Red Bull’s sell-out corporate bank-rolling be known to all.
This all came to a rather literal head (ahem) when a severed bull’s kopf was thrown in the general direction of the pitch from among the Dresden fans.
THE SQUEAMISH AMONG YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THIS YOUR FINAL WARNING.
*Gip*
It’s no good you asking, because it would appear that absolutely nobody knows how an entire, freshly-butchered bull’s head was smuggled past stadium security before eventually making its way pitchside.
We can only assume that the German Football Association (DFB) will be keen to have a little look into this.
