nudge Posted April 28, 2020 Author Posted April 28, 2020 Coming up shortly. Got confirmation that @SchalkeUK won't be submitting his answers this time and @Relling's participation seems to be a one round only, so all the scores are now calculated and answers are coming up in a few. In addition, we have a new participant join us this round. @Deco.
nudge Posted April 28, 2020 Author Posted April 28, 2020 Round 5 Question 1. Which player has the most yellow cards in the history of the 1.Bundesliga? (1pt) Correct answer: Stefan Effenberg with 114 yellow cards. Kind of surprised more of you didn't know this. Well done @Rucksackfranzose and @Deco. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 2. Name the player who left the pitch in the middle of the game after a conflict with his own fans and had his contract terminated a few days later? (1 pt) Correct answer: Goran Curko while playing for Arminia Bielefeld in their match against Waldhof Mannheim in 2000. Legendary scenes: Somewhat unsurprisingly, nobody got this one right. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 3. Name 3 DDR football clubs that played in the Champions League final (3 pts) Correct answer: Now, this turned out to be a trick question because I screwed up and said Champions League final when I really meant Cup Winners Cup final So two answers were considered correct here: either saying that no DDR club ever played in the Champions League final (which is true) or Magdeburg, Lok Leipzig and Carl Zeiss Jena who were the only DDR clubs to take part in the Cup Winners Cup final. @Faithcore and @Deco get 2 points each - the former for naming Magdeburg and Lok Leipzig, the latter for Magdeburg and Carl Zeiss Jena. @Tommy gets 1 point for Magdeburg. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 4. Name the player who has played most 1. Bundesliga matches without scoring a goal (not incuding goalkeepers) (1 pt) Correct answer: Dennis Diekmeier, who played 203 matches in 1. Bundesliga without scoring a goal. Once again, a point goes to @Faithcore and @Deco. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 5. What is the highest number of penalties given in a single 1. Bundesliga match? Name the two clubs involved (3 pts) Correct answer: Five penalties, Mönchengladbach v Borussia Dortmund in 1965/66. 3 penalties given for Gladbach, 2 for BVB. @Deco, @Dan, @Faithcore, @Stan get 1 point wach for correctly guessing the number of penalties. @Viva la FCB gets a point for correctly naming Gladbach as one of the clubs. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 6. Which club had 4 of their players sent off in a 1. Bundesliga match? Name their opponent for a bonus point (2 pts) Correct answer: Ulm against Hansa Rostock in 1999. Well done @Rucksackfranzose for being the only one to correctly name SSV Ulm as the club in question. Nobody got the other club right. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 7. Name the player who holds the record for most scored goals in a 2. Bundesliga season (1 pt) Correct answer: Horst Hrubesch with 41 goals (!) for Rot-Weiß Essen in the 1977/78 season. Once again, @Rucksackfranzose is the only one with the correct answer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 8. Which club from the 36 clubs currently playing in the top two divisions has the oldest stadium in Germany? (1 pt) Correct answer: Greuther Fürth and their Sportpark Ronhof stadium which opened its doors on the September 11th, 1910. No correct answers here - @Rucksackfranzose just missed out on the point here as his guess (Holstein Kiel) was just 1 year older... Many of you thought it's Frankfurt's Waldstadion, but it opened in 1925 so 15 years older than the oldest stadium in the top two leagues. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 9. Which club holds the record of most losses in a row in 2. Bundesliga? (1 pt) - Duisburg Correct answer: MSV Duisburg with 14 losses in a row from November 30th, 1985 to April 19th, 1986. No correct answers here. I would like to apologise to @Faithcore for making this negative record public. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Question 10.Which match holds the record of the highest attendance in the 3. Liga? Name the two clubs involved (2 pts) Correct answer: Fortuna Düsseldorf vs Werder II in 2009 with the attendance of 50.095. Well done @Tommy for being the only one to get a point here (for mentioning Fortuna, of course!).

Deco Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I’m quite happy with that actually. Can’t believe that attendance figure though! Looking forward to the next round.
Rucksackfranzose Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 Was surprised to see Labbadia was still an active player in 2000, in my mind he's managing clubs battling Buli relegation since eons.

Relling Posted May 3, 2020 Posted May 3, 2020 nudge is such an unforgiving mistress. But then again, forgiveness is for monks.
