Borussia Monchengladbach UEFA Europa League Tickets

Borussia Monchengladbach are a side that have increased their reputation around the world because of their efforts in continental cup football over the years. The Bundesliga outfit have played a number of matches in the Europa League over the years and after a period out of the tournament, and as a result, the 54,022 capacity Borussia-Park still becomes a vibrant atmosphere when the club take to the field and host a tournament match when played each season.

Die Fohlen, as they are nicknamed, have had a number of stars play for them ever since they were formed as a club and have been able to showcase some of the world’s very best individuals in the continental competition when they have taken part. Marcus Thuram, Yann Sommer, Denis Zakaria and Alassane Plea have all been able to show what they can offer in the side’s colours when taking part in the competition.

As mentioned, Borussia Monchengladbach have plenty of experience of playing in the Europa League over the years, as they have managed to reach the final of the old UEFA Cup on no fewer than four occasions.

Die Fohlen have managed to lift the trophy on two occasions, having won the competition in the 1974/75 and 1978/79 editions of the tournament, whilst they had to settle for runners up medals in the 1972/73 and 1979/80 editions. However, they have since failed to reach the final.

Of course, Borussia Monchengladbach’s most memorable moments in the Europa League will be their runs to the aforementioned finals, where they managed to beat FC Twente over two legs with a hat trick from Jupp Heynckes, whilst they also beat Red Star Belgrade in the 1978/79 edition.

However, there have been some memorable moments involving Die Fohlen that have been for all the wrong reasons in the tournament, with their appearance in the 2019/20 competition one standing out by a mile.

The Bundesliga outfit were leading their group heading into the final matchday with the possibility of qualifying for the knockout round still available, however the club suffered a last minute defeat to Istanbul Basaksehir and ultimately ended up finishing their continental campaign prematurely.

Nonetheless, fans of Borussia Monchengladbach will continue to flock to Borussia-Park in the hope their side can replicate their success in the 70s and, with the entertaining football on offer, there is certainly enthusiasm in the stands when they do take to the field on Thursday evenings.
