The story of how Edin Terzic, a boyhood Borussia Dortmund fan, has taken his team to the Champions League final.
On 12 May 2012, Jurgen Klopp's Bundesliga champions Borussia Dortmund beat Bayern Munich 5-2 in the German Cup final to complete a domestic Double.
And on Saturday, he will lead his boyhood club out at Wembley in the Champions League final against Real Madrid, hoping to do what it said on that banner in Berlin and become a bona fide Dortmund hero by lifting the ultimate prize. Not least on the final day of last season when, needing only to beat mid-table Mainz at home to seal a first Bundesliga title since 2012, Dortmund spectacularly choked.
Still, with Sahin immediately taking over attacking drills at a winter training camp in Marbella and Bender responsible for the defence, Dortmund's form picked up – at least until March when defeat at home to Hoffenheim again put Terzic under pressure before a 2-0 win at Union Berlin again saved his job.
Their European excellence continued into the knockout stages, now boosted by two Premier League loanees - Chelsea's Ian Maatsen and, of course, Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho, back at the club where he'd made his breakthrough. At full-time after the second leg in Paris, Terzic disappeared into the jubilant mob of Dortmund fans at the front of the away end. Those same fans who had picked him up on the final day of last season against Mainz.
