What?

Gala fans wanted to dig a tunnel to get into the stadium?

When and where?

You'll find out here on Get2Know Galatasaray.

Translated, Galatasaray means Galata Palace, and in Turkish football

Galatasaray is the most successful club.

25-time league champions, 19-time cup winners — that's unmatched.

But their biggest success came 25 years ago: UEFA Cup winners against the great FC Arsenal

with Thierry Henry.

It's well known that Gala fans get euphoric, but in 2013 in Gelsenkirchen it got out of hand.

They actually wanted, for their team's final training,

to dig a tunnel with their bare hands.

Surprise — it didn't work.

By the way, there are two coaches who have coached both Galatasaray

and our Eintracht.

Michael Skibbe and Karl-Heinz Feldkamp.

Feldkamp, by the way, even won titles with both teams, with our Eintracht

the DFB-Pokal and in 1993 with Galatasaray the league title and cup winner

There have so far been two direct encounters between Galatasaray and Eintracht, in 1992 in the UEFA

Cup.

Zero to zero and zero to one from Frankfurt's perspective.

So it's high time we scored a goal.

Who will score on Thursday evening?
