Unique protest by spectators in football match, tennis balls and chocolate coins thrown on the field

The anger of the spectators has not subsided yet regarding the new investment plan made by the Bundesliga, Germany's biggest football league, in December 2023. Its effect was also seen in the match played between Borussia Dortmund and FC Freiburg on Friday night. In the first half of the match, spectators started throwing tennis balls and gold coin-sized chocolates on the field. It seemed as if it had rained chocolate on the entire field. Due to this, the match was interrupted for a long time. The special thing is that the protesting spectators belonged to both the teams playing the match.

This match started very peacefully. But in the 37th minute of the match, the spectators suddenly started protesting and throwing a large number of chocolates made in the shape of tennis balls and gold coins on the field. Due to this the referee had to decide to stop the match immediately. Due to this, the game was interrupted for about ten minutes. Finally, when the matter calmed down, the match was restarted.

Donyell Malen, on the other hand, was Dortmund's team hero, scoring twice in the 16th and 45th minutes. In the 87th minute, Niklas Fulkarg scored a goal for the side. With 40 points from 11 wins in 21 games, the squad is in fourth place. Freiburg was facing its third straight loss at the same time. They have lost nine of their 21 games and are in seventh place with 28 points.
