In ‘Match Memory’, we will now be presenting you with selected gems from Bundesliga history on a weekly basis: special matches, notable protagonists, unforgettable moments from four decades.  Episode 9: Volker Ippig. The year is 1991. In addition to the re-election of Chancellor Helmut Kohl, a German-German Wimbledon final and the launch of the world's first website, Borussia Mönchengladbach welcomes FC St. Pauli and cult goalkeeper Volker Ippig to the Bökelberg stadium. The goalkeeper, who lived in squats for a time and worked as a social worker in Nicaragua in the 1980s, is particularly challenged that afternoon by Gladbach's Thomas Kastenmaier. The Borussia player initially converted a free kick to give the Foals the lead against Ippig, but was then beaten from 11 metres by the future dock worker in the course of the game. Ippig retained the upper hand and saved the Kiezkickers another point.
