📸 Goal against former club: Bundesliga player does the anti-Rocco Reitz

📸 Goal against former club: Bundesliga player does the anti-Rocco Reitz Two weeks ago, Leipzig star Rocco Reitz caused quite a stir when he celebrated his goal against former club Gladbach with his tongue stuck out. Before his summer move, he had spent 17 years playing for the Foals. A similar situation now unfolded in Mainz: SGE striker Jonathan Burkardt made it 2-0 against his old love shortly before halftime. Before his transfer in 2025, he had played for the Rheinhessen side for no fewer than eleven years. Burkardt handled it differently from Reitz afterward and chose not to celebrate the goal. He demonstratively raised both hands, kept his tongue to himself, and was clearly making an effort not to provoke any annoyance from the Mainz fans. Only then did the forward let his teammates celebrate him. 📸 Neil Baynes - 2026 Getty Images What do you think: Was that the right decision?
