Soccer Ghost

The soccer match today between Germany and the U.S., reminded me of a viral video I saw last year in May.

This video drew a lot of attention, because supposedly during this match between Bayern Munich and BVB Dortmund, a figure of a ghost was caught running in the middle of the field.

Skeptics immediately announced that the figure was not a ghost but a mirror image of a player on the other side of the screen. But this didn’t prevent over 4.5 million people from viewing this video on YouTube.

Just the month before this game, another supposed ghost was caught on camera, during a soccer match-- or “football” which most of the world calls it--in Bolivia. One article at the time stated ghosts must like soccer.

Here is the video recorded at the DFB Cup Final that Germany won.
