Dortmund keeper won't let anything stop bizarre pre-match ritual

Dortmund's official YouTube channel decided to compile a video full of their stopper carrying out his ritual before every match.

As the captains line up for the conventional coin toss with the match officials to see who will kick off the game, the Dortmund keeper consistently sneaks up behind the officials to either steal the match-day ball off them or one of the mascots.

Burki doesn't let anything stop him getting the match ball, sometimes asking politely but on other occasions forcing his way past the officials or simply taking it off one of the mascots!

The Swiss international clearly hopes it will bring his side luck, and with Dortmund unbeaten after six games and sitting top of the league, the fans might just want him to carry on the bizarre ritual.

Check out the video for yourself below.
