Today, on May 11th in Mönchengladbach, the Ukrainian national team will play a friendly match against the local "Borussia" (kick-off at 9:45 PM). We present our opponent.
The club was founded on August 1, 1900. League: German Bundesliga. Stadium: "Borussia Park" (54,000 spectators). Five-time German champion (1970, 1971, 1975, 1976, 1977), three-time winner of the German Cup (1960, 1973, 1995), and one-time winner of the German Super Cup (1977). Finalist of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1977). Two-time winner of the UEFA Cup (1975, 1979). Club ranking in UEFA - 48th (April 2022). Nicknames: "The Donkeys," black-white-green.
Goalkeepers: Jan Sommer (Switzerland), Tobias Zitzel, Jan Olchowski, Jonas Kerschen.
Defenders: Mamadou Doucouré (France), Stefan Lainer (Austria), Ramy Bensebaini (Algeria), Joe Scally (USA), Niko Elvedi (Switzerland), Marvin Friedrich, Jordan Bremer, Luca Netz, Toni Jantschke, Matti Ginter, Kaan Kürth.
Midfielders: Kadio Kane (France), László Benes (Slovakia), Conor Noss (Ireland), Christopher Kramer, Patrick Herrmann, Jonas Hofmann, Torben Mühlenweg, Rocco Reitz, Florian Neuhaus.
Forwards: Marcus Thuram, Alassane Plea (both - France), Breel Embolo (Switzerland), Kinan Bennet (England), Lars Stindl.
The 52-year-old Austrian specialist, Adi Hütter, has been coaching the Mönchengladbach «Borussia» since July 2, 2021, replacing the German Marco Rose. His contract with the club runs until June 30, 2024.
Prior to this, Hütter worked as head coach of Austrian «Altach», «Graz», «RB Salzburg» », Swiss «Young Boys», and German «Eintracht Frankfurt». With «RB Salzburg», he became the Austrian champion (2012/2013) and won the Austrian Cup (2014/2015), with «Young Boys» — Swiss champion (2017/2018).
Under Hütter's leadership, Mönchengladbach's «Borussia» has played 36 matches. They won in 13 of them, drew nine times and lost 14.
In the current season, it is difficult to single out one undisputed leader in Mönchengladbach's «Borussia». Traditionally, this role has been played by the French forward Marcus Thuram. The 24-year-old striker stands out for his excellent dribbling, plays well in the second half of the pitch, is a master of short passes and executes set pieces skillfully. However, in this season he has only played 20 league matches, scoring just three goals.
Therefore, his compatriot and teammate Alassane Plea, who has scored nine goals in 32 matches, as well as the German midfielder Jonas Hofmann, with ten goals in 25 games, could also be considered leaders.
Hofmann, who is the top scorer for "Borussia" in this season, usually plays as a right winger. He is very strong with key passes and executes various passes well, possessing a powerful shot from his right foot. The authoritative portal Transfermarkt values him at 16 million euros.

News from the Ukraine team camp: the team arrived in Germany and held a training session in Munich Gladbach Note: "Munich Gladbach" seems to be a combination of two different places. The correct place name should be either "Munich" or "Gladbach". Since the original text combines them, I've kept it as is but noted that typically these would be separate locations. However, strictly following instructions, no alterations are made beyond direct translation.
