Herrlich accepts fine
The sports tribunal of the German Football Association (DFB) has imposed a 12,000 Euro fine on Heiko Herrlich for his actions during the 1-0 DFB Cup win at Borussia Mönchengladbach.
In the closing stages of a hard-fought DFB Cup Round of 16 tie on 20 December 2017, Herrlich went to ground in the 75th minute with the score at 1-0 following slight contact from the Gladbach player Denis Zakaria. The 46-year-old immediately apologised to the player and officially after the game.
Bayer 04 and the Werkself head coach have accepted the DFB decision.
