Borussia Monchengladbach

Borussia Mönchengladbach is a Bundesliga club that plays in black and green. The team's nickname, Fohlenelf, comes from their young players, who dominated Germany in their prime with an attacking style known as fast-paced football more commonly seen on American soil than European ones - albeit not quite as hard!

The club celebrated its greatest sporting successes almost exclusively in the 1970s. They won all 5 German championship titles: in 1970 and 1971 and 1975 to 1977 only FC Bayern Munich managed such a hat trick in their Bundesliga successes!

The Fohlenelf's two UEFA Cup victories came at a time when there were not many national cup competitions in Germany. In 1975 they defeated Twente Enschede 0-0 at home and scored 5 goals in the second leg to lift the European title (the first German club side since Bayern Munich 13 years earlier). They reached the final again the following year but lost to Liverpool 3-2 after extra time and an early Christian Ziege penalty that also made headlines across Europe!

Mönchengladbach also made it to the final of the European Champion Clubs' Cup, beating Liverpool in Rome 1977. Allan Simonsen equalized but the team lost 3-1 A great story from 49 years ago when Mönchengladbach's Borussia played at home to decide who would win the championship between England and Germany or Italy (travel was too risky).

Borussia VfL 1900 Mönchengladbach GmbH is a company that was founded in 1960. In order for her to be successful, she needed the help of some famous footballers who have put their stamp on this wonderful story that has been written so far! The most important victory comes from 1995 when they defeated Wolfsburg 3-0 with goals from Martin Dahlin and Heiko Herrlich, proving how tough it really is sometimes but has been a source of joy every day since. There are many reasons why people love to follow this team called Borussia.
