Lehmann Relieved During CL Match

Judging by the headline, you probably are guessing that Jens Lehmann's club, VFB Stuttgart, substituted the German during a hard-fought Champions League victory over Unirea Urziceni on Wednesday night.

But that wouldn't be news now would it? No. What I'm actually telling you is that Lehmann is guilty of urinating on the pitch against Unirea.

Funny how that has a ring to it, right?

Yep. The Stuttgart keeper hopped over an advertising sign, went down to one knee, and started peeing before the Romanian club forced him to return to his goal. I have the video to prove it:





These wacky events transpired before nearly 40,000 people. Stuttgart's director of sport Horst Heldt was quoted in England's The Guardian praising Lehmann for his handling of the sticky situation.

"I thought he handled it very expertly," he said.

Just another reason why soccer can be so unpredictable.
