the wrath of kahn
Tue

May

When he was an active player, it was easy to admire [retiring German goalkeeper] Oliver Kahn, but it was very hard to love him...for Oliver Kahn, football was never a game and, as he has said on numerous occasions, he never really enjoyed himself on a football pitch.
...
[I]n 1999, he grabbed Dortmund’s Andreas Möller by the ear, delivered a kung-fu styled kick aimed at Stephane Chapuisat and then pretended to bite Heiko Herrlich in the neck - all in one game.
