First dog bite: people say Schalke’s Friedel Rausch being bitten by a police dog in Dortmund was unique. Wrong – a football myth that is simply false. Fortuna Düsseldorf’s left winger Dieter Wöske was the first bite victim in a top-flight match on German soil, ten years earlier, on 6 April 1959. In a home match in the Oberliga West against 1. FC Köln, Wöske fled into the goal from euphoric spectators and was bitten through the net by a police dog named Ajax.
You can leave your mark that way, too.
