...and what a year it has been....part one
It was those six minutes in January, six minutes that changed everything. We had whitnessed the probably most astonishing first half of a season there had ever been. But Bayern wouldn't have been Bayern if they hadn't declared that the second half would be their half now and that us people from Dortmund should watch out and realize that there can only be one team in Germany dominant, successful and in the end: Championship winner. And even the journalists, maybe they didn't exactly doubt us, but in the end, wondered: will this team be able to hold up this standard, this way of playing football, this determination? The answer was given in six minutes in January. They would. They would not only hold up that standard of playing, but write football history and miracles in a new way. Ten years from now, twenty, maybe thirty, I am convinced, people will still talk about this season, this time, this era of a new BVB. A BVB that had given football romance, and everything it stands for, a new meaning. And surely this new football era had started a while earlier. With Jürgen Klopp coming, everything changed. But the year 2011 was important and amazing in so many ways. Let's take a look back at the wonderful, sometimes painful, emotional but always and forever memorable moments of our Ballspielverein in the year 2011.
