On May 1, 1932, the Hessians beat Bayern 2:0 in the final of the South German championship. It was a scandal match. Eintracht went two goals up through the Swiss forward Dietrich, Bayern grew stronger in the second half and felt wronged by the referee.

Shortly before the end, Bayern fans stormed the field. The match was abandoned seven minutes before full time. The quick rematch came on June 12 in the German championship final.

Bayern triumphed 2:0 in front of 55,000 spectators. Only after that final was Eintracht officially awarded the May 1 match, while Bayern were fined.
