The Spitting incident: Rudi Völler and Frank Rijkaard
In the wild world of football, where rivalries run deep and tempers flare hotter than a summer barbecue, the clash between Germany and the Netherlands at the 1990 World Cup was more dramatic than a soap opera marathon. Picture this: two powerhouse teams, one spitting incident, and enough drama to make Shakespeare blush.
In the midst of this soccer spectacle, Dutch dynamo Frank Rijkaard decided to add his own special ingredient to the mix by giving German striker Rudi Völler a surprise shower of saliva. Talk about adding some extra flavor to the game!
But wait, there's more! The referee, probably thinking he stumbled onto the set of a reality TV show, promptly showed both players the red card, sending them off like disgraced contestants.
Fast forward a few months, and Rijkaard, feeling more sheepish than a lamb caught in the rain, apologized to Völler, blaming his momentary lapse of reason on relationship drama. And just like that, the feud went from fiery to funny faster than you can say "goal!"
In a stroke of marketing genius, the two rivals buried the hatchet (and probably a few tubs of butter) by starring in a commercial together, proving that sometimes all it takes to smooth things over is a good laugh and a stick of butter. Who knew football could be so deliciously entertaining?

"Now Virgil, win titles that really count and then we'll talk."
Cristiano Ronaldo's sister Katia Aveiro certainly didn't hold back as she ranted at Virgil van Dijk for a joke he made about the Juventus star's absence from the Ballon d'Or awards ceremony!
