The Road to Munich: Champions League Season 96/97
A thrill of anticipation runs through every Black and Yellow supporter after this stunning season that culminated in the win of the 7th championship. After years of abstinence our young guns managed to qualify for the UEFA Champions-League. It has been six years since Borussia Dortmund was on the brink and each of us suffered from not knowing if our future was with or without our love. For years we were thirsty for competing with the best European football teams. The Europa-League excursion of last season could only satisfy our thirst short-time. The team and the supporters wanted more! But not only the team and supporters profit from the European tour. Also the club profits from the payout of the Champions-League that will be used for debt repayment. To encourage the anticipation of the CL season and the upcoming important match against Arsenal London, I will today make an historic excursion back to the years 1996 and 1997 and regard the successful Champions-League season that is now more than ten years ago.
