The Longest Beard in German Football

Matthias Holst

Just got a little bit longer.

Courtesy of Matthias Holst, a central defender, who is currently playing for Hansa Rostock in the 2. Bundesliga. Or rather, he is not playing but under contract – otherwise his beard would be gone. Matthias Holst has made it a habit to grow a beard whenever he got injured and/or didn’t play for his club. This has been the case for over a year now. A lengthy knee-injury followed by a suspension, due to a lengthy night out, kept him out of action.

He was back in Hansa’s squad for Monday night’s game against Bochum (0-0) but didn’t make an appearance, so his beard will keep growing for at least another week.
