A German soccer game was suspended Sunday after a fan threw a beer in the face of a referee during halftime.
Zwickau was hosting Rot-Weiss Essen in a third-tier match in which it faced relegation, and the two teams were tied 1-1 after the first half of play. Before the first half expired, referee Nicholas Winter gave Zwickau defender Nils Butzen a red card while also awarding Essen a free kick off a hand ball. Essen forward Simon Engelmann took advantage of the kick, scoring the equalizing goal right before halftime.

However, I’m all-in on videos of guys finally getting the call after years in the minors. That’s what happened Sunday for 33-year-old Pittsburgh Pirates “prospect” Drew Maggi.
The Arizona Diamondbacks originally drafted Maggi in 2008. But, he chose to go to college. The Pirates later selected him in 2010.
