The evening of April 6th, at Dortmund's Westfalen Stadium.
Long before the match began, the German media had already put out a teaser.
Several of Dortmund's fan clubs had jointly planned to give the visiting Chelsea a show of force at their home stadium before this crucial quarter-final knockout match.
Previously, the TIFOs at Westfalen Stadium were usually confined to the South Stand.
But this time, it would be expanded for the first time to sections of the East and West Stands. The goal was to create the largest giant TIFO formation in history to celebrate Dortmund winning the Bundesliga title for two consecutive seasons!
This was a decision the Dortmund fans had been brewing for a long time!
Therefore, the live television broadcast was also paying close attention to the activity in the stands.
Just before the players from both teams were about to enter the pitch, the fans in the South Stand were the first to unfurl the core section of the giant TIFO.
