Suspended for five games for throwing a drink bottle at a fan after the match between Hannover and Hamburg ended in a draw. The full bottle is supposed to have struck the fan’s shoulder.
Fans started jeering when the Hamburg striker began walking off the field when the incident occurred.
In addition he got slapped with a $26,700 fines by the German federation and an undisclosed club record fine. He is also supposed to meet with the fan and apologize. To be fair the fan also needs a bit of attitude adjustment.
Last week, it was Kevin McDonald of Burnley who exited Turf Moor at half time to go to a nearby pub. City by halftime had hammered in 5 goals, so there needs to be some context to his momentary lapse of reason. He was fined and has since then apologized. Brian Laws also confirmed that McDonald would be included in the Hull City away game.
