Dynamo Dresden fans have been accused of trying to goad RB Leipzig supporters by tossing a severed bull's head from the stands. The alleged incident took place during a German cup match on Saturday, with hosts running out eventual 5-4 winners after a nervy penalty shootout.
Home supporters are believed to have smuggled the dead animal's head into the ground before throwing it towards the pitch in a sick jibe aimed at their rivals.
According to Sport1, it remains unclear how the bloody and severed head slipped past security on the way in.

And a word of warning, you're not going to enjoy it if you're the squeamish type.
