Dortmund fans protest ticket prices by lobbing tennis balls all over the pitch
If Liverpool fans need inspiration for any future protests against rising ticket prices, then they need look no further than Borussia Dortmund.Ahead of their cup game against Stuttgart, Dortmund fans boycotted the first 20 minutes and then caused the game to be halted after throwing what looked liked Wimbledon’s entire inventory of tennis balls on to the pitch.
The Dortmund fans were protesting ticket prices, with a quarter of away tickets for the game costing £55. Which makes you wonder what they would be throwing if they were faced with the kind of prices Premier League fans have to swallow.
Watch the footage in the video below. Oh, and despite the disruptions, Dortmund managed to win the game 3-1.

Ogbonna’s brilliant extra time header dumps Liverpool out of the FA Cup
Leaping like the proverbial salmon, West Ham’s Angelo Ogbonna scored a glorious header right at the death of extra time to secure a dramatic 2-1 win in his sides FA Cup replay with Liverpool.With the scores level at 1-1 after Coutinho’s cheeky free kick had cancelled out Antonio’s tasty volley, the game looked like it was destine for penalties. However, Lucas Leiva gave away a needless free kick in the final seconds of extra time, and Liverpool once again proved that they really don’t fancy defending set pieces. Dimitri Payet floated in a teasing cross and Ogbonna planted a firm header back across goal, leaving Mignolet with not a hope of sending the game into penalties.
Watch Ogbaonn’s glorious header below.
"It's a glorious header!" @OgbonnaOfficial wins the game for @whufc_official in stoppage time of extra time. (more…)

Ohh he had you tricked there didn’t he? For a moment you panicked and thought he was going to boot the American football didn’t you?
Rightly, when ever Super Bowl rolls around, football collectively decides it’s time to bring it up a notch or two in the general smugness and superiority levels. Neymar’s ‘real’ football jab is just about as smug as one could hope.
