After a series of spectacular upsets, the third division champions hope to do the unthinkable against StuttgartAs the clock ticked down on one of Arminia Bielefeld’s most famous victories, there was a moment when time seemed to stand still.

But it’s pretty obvious what happened: he tried to exit the garden bed by climbing over the border of diagonally laid bricks and overbalanced. It’s an obstacle he surmounts without difficulty between five and 10 times a day in the warmer months, but occasionally – perhaps once every four years – he puts a foot wrong. So far, I have always been there to turn him back over. Continue reading...
