The cheering moment shared by Bayer Leverkusen's Jeremie Frimpong and Amine Adli has become very popular on the internet. This happened when Bayer Leverkusen qualified for the DFB Pokal final.
Xabi Alonso's team won 4-0 against Fortuna Dusseldorf, extending their record of not losing any matches this season. The Germans still hope to achieve the feat of winning three major titles.
Although the Bundesliga team appeared to be much better than their second-tier rivals, it wasn't solely their playing approach that stood out.
After Frimpong and Adli both scored during the semi-final match, they celebrated together by pretending to smoke marijuana.
During the seventh minute of the game, following Frimpong's goal, he acted as if he was rolling and smoking marijuana before passing it to another member of his team.
In just seven minutes, Jeremie Frimpong netted a goal, setting Bayer Leverkusen in the lead against their opponents Dusseldorf.
He marked the occasion by imitating the act of consuming a joint alongside his teammate Amine Adli.
On the first day of April, Germany has officially permitted the possession of marijuana for personal purposes. This means that people are now allowed to have marijuana without violating the law.
On April 3, Jeremie Frimpong and Amine Adli pulled off an energetic celebration during the German Cup semi-final. They were seen sprinting and laughing uncontrollably.
Frimpong, who was born in the Netherlands, may have been showing respect to his hometown of Amsterdam, which has allowed the use of marijuana for many years.
Germany, which is the largest country in the European Union, legalized recreational marijuana possession just two days prior to the match.
Following the revised legislation, individuals are now permitted to carry a maximum of 25g of cannabis in public without it being considered an unlawful act.
The inhabitants of Germany have been granted the permission to cultivate their own plants within the confines of their homes.
Alonso's team in Leverkusen has played 35 matches so far this season, and they have not lost any. They are currently leading the Bundesliga table by 13 points.
They are going to compete against West Ham United in the quarter-finals of the Europa League in hopes of achieving an impressive treble.
It is still uncertain if Leverkusen will be able to keep their important players like Frimpong. However, there is a possibility that Germany's recent legal changes could persuade Frimpong, who is originally from the Netherlands, to prolong his stay with the team.
