On Wednesday, the famous bush throw marks on Mönchengladbacher Bökelberg for the 50th time. The 7: 1 triumph against Inter Milan was at the end waste.
Roberto Boninsegna also like 50 years later in the role as innocent.
Again and again I assumed in Germany to have only played the injury. That s not true, I have not been acting. The can hit me on the head and I fell to the ground unconscious, the former Italian football player said in Sid interview and took to that incident position that will mark on Wednesday for the 50th time.
Boninsegna was October 20, 1971 at Borussia 7: 1 has been taken triumph against Inter in the second round of the European Champions Cup from a Coke can and went to the ground.
later the UEFA canceled the meeting, the designated that decade Gladbach best game of the then standing in the square 1974 champion Rainer Bonhof as.
Gladbach raises Boninsegna fraud
Especially in Gladbach Boninsegna fraud was accused. The return leg in Milan in San Siro lost the Moenchengladbach 2: 4, which canceled duel was repeated in Berlin s Olympic Stadium. A goalless draw was enough for Inter progress.
But that 7: 1 is hotly debated in the Borussia fans today. Just as an autumn storm ruffled the trees, flew 50 years ago Borussia over Inter s star ensemble of time. The showpiece club had initially held when booking the flight Moenchengladbach for a suburb of Munich.
But after the debacle at the Niederrhein each inter-Star should be Moenchengladbach been a household name. The newspapers revel the day after rightly so. This is not a result, but a dream, the kicker formulated.
And Bild ruled: The greatest game that has ever probably existed on German soil. The Süddeutsche Zeitung attested Borussia the best match the club s history .
Bonhof: The box was empty
The cancellation of the sensational result is evaluated at Borussia as a great injustice today. Nearly 50 years after the rifle throw Bonhof, however, has his peace with the alleged actor Boninsegna closed.
Of course it still hurts, and both sides stick to their argument. But I m with Roberto at peace , today s Club Vice President.
He was still of the opinion that the box was empty. He claims as before, that he was fully unconscious and the can, mused Bonhof.
Only 27,500 spectators were allowed to attend this truly historic football spectacle. And in the TV Sensation game was not to be seen. Borussia s former CEO Helmut Grashoff could not agree on the license fee with the West German Radio. The WDR wanted (around 30,000 euros) broadcast the game for 60,000 marks. Grashoff demanded plus tax which at the time was ten percent.
The WDR insisted on including. The global broadcasting thus failed to 3000 euros. Good for those who still can show a ticket and may say: I was there!
Inter specifies a protest
In the 28th minute, those ominous scene contributed to, which led to many contentious discussions. Boninsegna, who in the 19th minute the interim one who scored one compensation, was hit by a thrown from the stands at the head of Coke (Inter) or shoulder (Borussia). Full (Inter) or empty (Borussia)?
Anyway Boninsegna was brought on a stretcher from the square. How hard the supposed Blessur the Inter striker was later could not be detected properly, because a German doctor was not permitted in the cabin of the Italians.
The Italians played on the advice of the UEFA observer on, but appealed against the valuation of matches after the match protest. The reason: the team was weakened and shocked. In general security was not guaranteed on the Bökelberg. Thus, the UEFA decided to annul the result and to set a replay on neutral ground.
