Odd! ÖFB Legionnaire's Jersey Hangs from the Locker Room Ceiling

After a mixed start to the season, TSG Hoffenheim and coach Christian Ilzer recently returned to winning ways with two consecutive victories.

Alexander Prass played a crucial role in the resurgence of the Sinsheim team. The ÖFB international contributed two goals and an assist in the last two match days.

However, his goal for the temporary 2-0 lead against Bayer Leverkusen will not only be remembered positively. After having already received a yellow card in the 45th minute, he celebrated his game-sealing goal by taking off his jersey.

The logical consequence was a second yellow card leading to a red. As his sending-off had no negative repercussions, Christian Ilzer took his blunder with humor >>>

Prass: "I won't be taking off my jersey that quickly again"

As Prass himself revealed on TSG Hoffenheim's social media channel, he has taken a special measure to ensure such a mistake never happens again. "The jersey I was wearing got a bit damaged on the way to the locker room because I somehow ripped it. A nice tear was created there. It's now hanging in the locker room from the ceiling on a coat hook."

In retrospect, he can smile about his carelessness. "Because it turned out well, I say: 'No big deal'. But it certainly annoys me," said the 25-year-old. One thing is clear for Christian Ilzer's protégé after this incident: "I won't be taking off my jersey that quickly again."
