Wtf is going on at the Hoffenheim/Bayern game

From what I gather, Bayern fans displayed a banner/banners calling Hoffenheim’s owner a son of a bitch. This is apparently not the first time visiting fans have done something like this, since fans of other German clubs resent SAP for pumping money into Hoffenheim. The referee interrupted the match twice to address it and was unsuccessful, so in protest of the Bayern fans’ actions, the players decided to play keep ups for the last 10 minutes.

Oh so the referees and owner were offended by the fans peacefully exercising their freedom of speech and adding passion to the game... well they shouldve ignored it and displayed mental strength not to be effected by words. Like men were men in the 60s.

But they keep on playing when a player is being racially abused

The sign was actually "son of a whore", so the insult was to the mother of the owner. Frankly, I have no problem with what the players did.

I am sure his mother is OK.

Let the police deal with it if there is something wrong with that banner and/or their songs.

If insulting someone´s mother now is enough to get games stopped. Honestly I can only laugh.

Bwaa, millionaire owner gets targeted by a standard chant.

It's an extremely common insult in German that is lobbed around all the time at soccer matches at opposing players and fans.

Just three weeks ago the referee and other players ignored monkey chants that Schalke fans aimed all match at a black player for Hertha, and the referee in fact ended up giving a second yellow to that player for being upset at the chants. Lovely example that throwing a banal insult at an owner will stop a match but the racism and far right banners that seem to pop up all the time simply have to be ignored.

 

[TheMoreYouKnow]

Well, the score line was 6-0 against the home team, don't think that would happen if the result was in doubt. But what you can take from that is that players, managers, club bosses etc. are all millionaires and have more in common with each other than with the fans.

The funny thing is that the Hopp/Hurensohn thing has taken on a life of its own precisely because Hopp finds it impossible to ignore. It's never going to go away now because it's such an easy yet highly effective provocation.

 

[Albatros]

The match between Köln and Schalke also temporarily suspended because of the same chant.

Yup

Let me be clear I don't mind the game was stopped although calling someone a SOB is pretty tame. It's just hilarious that it happened on the heels of some BLATANT racism on here. Hopefully the same energy is transferred to future racist behavior. In any case my post was pretty obvious mocking someone on here.

 

[Cassano]

Blatant racism is allowed, but good god if you don't support the 50+1 rule you're literally Stalin.

Also twice had contact made to his, umm, man parts in the space of, like, five minutes almost immediately after scoring.

Another terrible game from Nubel, letting in a howler own goal. With the way he has been playing since announcing him moving to Bayern next season, he won't be threatening Neuer's position at all nor getting to play many games there. Schalke are probably better off not playing him for rest of the season, or at least for the next few games.

 

[Albatros]

RB Leipzig kicked 20 fans out of their stadium for being Asian, somehow no outrage from the DFB or any other part of the establishment.

RB Leipzig apologise to Japanese fans for coronavirus 'error'

Dude cant handle the negativity. As expected he’s become a persona non grata for many fans after the announcement. Its not even surprising really..if his agent didnt prepare him for it, he needs a new one.

Schalke-Bayern tonight (DfB Pokal). Both teams agreed on terms they will leave the pitch, if something like last saturday at the Hoffenhem-Bayern game happens again.

This will be fun...

 

[Bon Esprit]

Some important games this weekend.

Hertha-Bremen
Mainz-Düsseldorf
Gladbach-Dortmund
Schalke-Hoffenheim

After yesterday's loss Paderborn's fate seems to be sealed.

Nürnberg lost to Hannover yesterday. Well, actually not newsworthy, but after the game two Nürnberg players received death threats. Sick world.

Unleash this kid, he's a beast

 

[HajdukSplit]

Bremen blew a two goal lead in Berlin, think its now between them and Fortuna for the final relegation spot. Title race could be all but over after this MD too if Dortmund don't win at Gladbach, Leipzig not in the best of forms (domestically)

 

[Bon Esprit]

Great game by Paulinho for Leverkusen. 2 goals 1 assist.

The censorship has led to mockery as could be expected, but Frankfurt did it better:

"Dietmar Hopp you son of a"

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Leipzig falling away, as expected. This is their first season challenging for the title. It was going to be difficult enough anyway to not get fatigued, but still being in Europe wasn't going to help. They'll be back next season.

Gritty win for Dortmund. That was one of our worst performances of the season, but it was against Gladbach, so almost a guaranteed win.

Bayern plays tomorrow. They are in great form, but the lack of Lewandowski could show up one of these games.

Actually it said: Hopp, you son of a mother.

TBH I don't understand this crap. How are clubs like Bayern, BvB or Eintracht Frankfurt different?
If they don't like it, they can watch 3rd league or amateur. Those ultras don't understand that Bundesliga is entertainment and business.
