Bundesliga: Bayern Munich-M'Gladbach interrupted by chocolate coins

For the 20th day of the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich hosts Borussia Mönchengladbach this Saturday. But the German Championship clash was interrupted in the 12th minute of play. Indeed, the game was stopped after Bavarian supporters threw chocolate coins to protest against the German Football League (DFL). It took a few minutes for play to resume, while the stewards at the Allianz Arena took the time to clean the pitch of the numerous chocolate coins.

Slogans hostile to the German League were then chanted in the Bavarian enclosure. This is not an isolated case, since numerous groups of supporters of Bundesliga clubs have been carrying out this type of action since December to protest against the probable entry of an investor into German professional football. The Cologne-Borussia Dortmund match, counting for the 18th day of the German championship, was interrupted for the same reason.
