On this day in 2001, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund met in a feisty league fixture that produced 14 yellow and three red cards.
The Bavarians were at the top of the Bundesliga table, leading second placed Dortmund by just one point. Dortmund, playing at home, could have over taken Bayern with a win but the game ended 1-1.
Bayern’s young Paraguayan striker Roque Santa Cruz opened the scoring in the sixth minute and then the fireworks begun. Bayern had a total of six yellow cards before the first half interval with left back Bixente Lizarazu sent off for two yellows.
