Bayern Munich fans protest high ticket prices

They were protesting at the high prices for the game against Anderlecht, with the Belgian club having charged 100 euros for a ticket in the away end. The rain of fake notes appeared just after the quarter-hour mark in the game, when Anderlecht went to take a corner. They also had a banner reading: "Is your gr€€d finally satisfied. €100?".

This isn't the first time the fans have staged a similar protest. On 27 September, when Bayern Munich visited PSG they threw fake money and unveiled a sign reading: "€75 a ticket? We're not Neymar. The ticket price should be reasonable".
