Schalke 04 fans got carried away and started celebrating what they thought was the winning of the Bundesliga title on the final day of the 2000-01 season. Schalke needed to win at home to Unterhaching and hope Hamburg’s HSV could beat Bayern Munich. Hearts were in mouths when Schalke went 2-0 down only to pull back to 2-2 before half-time, while over in Hamburg it was 0-0. Schalke then fell 3-2 behind, but celebrations really started with a comeback to win 5-3 and the news that HSV were 1-0 up in the 90th minute. Schalke fans were suddenly silenced when in the 94th minute Bayern squeezed home an equaliser to shave the title.
