Surely there should have been a mercy rule for this match.
Borussia Dortmund took on the mighty “Team Gold” at SignalIduna Park on Saturday in a pre-season charity match.
While most teams would take the foot off the gas pedal during a charity game, Dortmund powered through their opposition, firing home 17 goals in the 70 minute match.
Team Gold comprised of former German Olympians including former handball goalkeeper Silvio Heinevetter, beach volleyball Olympic winner Jonas Reckermann and ski-jumping legend Sven Hannawald. Former greats who are now reduced to getting humiliated by a professional football team in front of a stadium packed with 41,200 people.
On the bright side, the match did raise a whopping €250,000 for charity.
