"Winning the Champions League was like Denmark in 1992 nobody put a lot of money on us, but when it's only one game, anything can happen': Former Borussia Dortmund and Liverpool forward on his European heroics
Briefly

Dortmund last won the Champions League in 1997, when Karl-Heinz Riedle scored twice in the final against Juventus in Munich. Riedle reflects on this upset victory, noting how no one initially believed in them, akin to Denmark's surprise win in Euro 92—'It's only one game, anything can happen. We took our chance, and it was a special moment.' His story inspires the current team as they prepare for a major rematch.
As Borussia Dortmund ambassador, Riedle shares their expanding presence in Asia through initiatives such as tours, youth development programs, and establishing fan clubs. He notes, 'We aim to grow our profile on the continent, and our efforts include offering Asian players opportunities to train in top German academies.' This strategic approach highlights Dortmund's commitment to fostering global football talent and community.
