"Dortmund had produced many football stars throughout its history."
"Over the past few decades, the most famous legendary star had undoubtedly been Sammer."
"From 1995 to 1997, this club had been immensely glorious, laden with honors."
"After that glory came a gradual decline..."
"Then came Klopp's era."
"His heavy-metal football worked miracles, allowing Dortmund to once again stand on Europe's grandest stage."
The atmosphere at Westfalenstadion grew ever more thunderous.
The yellow beast bared its fangs, its gaping maw radiating an utterly terrifying pressure.
De Bruyne's expression turned grave.
Bendtner took a deep breath.
The two Premier League castoffs knew all too well that tonight's test would be brutal. Even Arsenal or Chelsea would find no easy time at Westfalenstadion.
BEEP!
With the referee's whistle, the match officially began.
Wolfsburg had possession.
Bendtner kicked off and played it sideways to Li Luo.
Sensing Dortmund's crazed high press, Li Luo deliberately put a little extra weight on his back pass.
"Let's introduce the starting lineups for both sides."
"Wearing their yellow home kits and attacking from left to right are Dortmund, lined up in a 4-1-4-1 formation!"
"Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller."
"Defenders: Piszczek, Subotic, Papa, Durm."
"Single defensive midfielder: Sven Bender."
"Central midfielders: Mkhitaryan, Reus, Gundogan, Jojic."
"Forward: Aubameyang."

-[Dortmund are fielding this fully fit lineup? Wolfsburg are in deep trouble away from home.]
-[Going all-in on over goals, brothers.]
-[Ever since Reus's serious injury, he's been playing less and less out wide? This 4-1-4-1 is really a 4-2-3-1, isn't it? During possession, the two central midfielders take turns dropping back to help build the attack.]
