Well played Dortmund, very well played indeed.
Borussia Dortmund are having a bit of a rotten season domestically so far this campaign but they’ve still managed to maintain their status as the hipster’s club.
They’ve got the cool manager, the deadly fans, they play innovative and attractive football and football followers have a certain degree of sympathy for them considering that their best players are nicked by Bayern Munich on a regular basis.
We can’t think of many football clubs who would go out of their way to mark the 25th anniversary of the first full-length episode of the greatest show of all time, but the German side did just that with a classy post to their yellow counterparts on Twitter this morning.

In return, let us remember how The Simpsons themselves paid tribute to the beautiful game many years ago…
