Bundesliga Fan Protests with Tennis Balls and Toy Cars Interrupt Werder Bremen Win
Fan protests halted another game in the Bundesliga when supporters threw tennis balls and sent remote control cars careening around the penalty area during Werder Bremen’s 1-0 win over Cologne. The match was halted for almost 10 minutes early in the second half. Fans have been protesting at games across the country against a proposed deal to sell a future stake in the league to a private equity investor. Players kicked the tennis balls off the pitch as two bright orange cars sped up and down the penalty box doing flips and about turns.
