9 years ago? Day of high emotions in the Bundesliga. Borussia Dortmund celebrates the first championship under coach Jürgen Klopp after the 32nd matchday thanks to a 2-0 win against 1. FC Nürnberg and bathes the city in a sea of black and yellow flags. The Bild-Zeitung headlines: “The first master of hearts with a shell.” Klopp is proud of his gang of rascals (average: 24.2 years): “This kindergarten is nailing through the league as if there were no more tomorrow. That is simply extraordinary. “
A part of Eintracht Frankfurt’s fans are out of order after the 0: 3 in Mainz. Despite the commitment of coach Christoph Daum, relegation threatens in 2011. A horde of around 40 “fans”, some of whom are masked, drive directly from the game to the Waldstadion, where the players have parked their luxury cars and are in danger of becoming violent. The plainclothes policemen on guard there use pistols, and one of them has to fire a warning shot in dire need. Then the mob moves away. Eintracht board member Heribert Bruchhagen: “It’s not good, but it’s part of the Bundesliga.”
4 years ago? Relegated Hannover 96 said goodbye to its audience in 2016 with a negative record and also lost their 13th home game (1: 3 against Schalke). Just as often as Greuther Fürth (2012/13) before.
