Leistner was born in Dresden, where the match was played, and spent several years at Dynamo Dresden before leaving the club in 2014.
Back in town, he came into focus - but for the completely wrong reason.
In the player above, you can see the clip of the 30-year-old getting up in the stands and getting into a fight with the fans.
The player himself tells German Bild that he received serious insults directed at himself and his family.
According to the news agency AP, the match was watched by just over 10,000 spectators, the largest number in a German football match since the corona pandemic broke out.
