'X' was involved in an unsavoury incident with Rudi Völler when West Germany played the Netherlands in the 1990 World Cup. 'X' was booked for a bad tackle on Völler. As 'X' took up position for the free kick he spat in Völler's hair. Völler complained to the referee and was booked as well. From the resulting free kick, Völler then dived, according to himself to avoid a collision with Dutch keeper Hans van Breukelen, while others, notably 'X', saw it as a dive in hopes for a penalty. 'X' again confronted Völler by twisting his ear and stamping on his foot. Both Völler and 'X' were sent off but 'X' again spat in Völler's hair as they left the pitch. The German press nicknamed him "Llama" for his spitting.
