It is matchday 13 in the 1991/92 season. Bayer 04 are away to the reigning champions of Germany FC Kaiserslautern on 12 October. The Werkself are battling to take over top spot in the table in the usual heated atmosphere at the Betzenberg Stadium. The match ended in a 2-1 defeat after Andreas Thom appeared to have made it 2-1 to Bayer 04 in the second half but the strike was ruled out due to handball or offside – the decision was never really explained in full.
Marcus Feinbier was the first player in the history of Bayer 04 to be sent off for two yellow card offences albeit they would probably not have been shown in any of the stadium. And because a match at Kaiserslautern at the start of the 1990s usually lasted as long as it took for the Red Devils to win, the winning goal for the side from the Palatinate came in added time.
The video shows you highlights of this match with its historic event.
Michal ‘Katsche’ Kadlec was born in the Czech town of Vyskov on 13 December 1984. At the age of six, he moved to the Pfalz region in Germany with his parents because his father Miroslav accepted an offer from FC Kaiserslautern where he played as a sweeper for the Red Devils for eight years. Katsche learned German in the kindergarten at Kaiserslautern. And he played football at an early age: first as a teenager at SV Alsenborn and then for FC Kaiserslautern.

Bernd Schuster was born in Augsburg on 22.12.19 59. His first club as a teenager was local side SV Hammerschmiede. From that time there was an anecdote that a former groundsman told us when we had a Pokal game in Augsburg in 1993. Bernd was always the first person on the training ground after school. With a running track around the pitch and goals without nets, the young Bernd practised free kicks and corners in the knowledge that he had to collect the ball himself. In that way he not only practised his technique but also worked on his stamina as a teenager.
