Opposition Check: Hertha BSC

It's the year 2011. A flood of 77,116 people stream into the Berlin Olympic Stadium on the 34th matchday of the 2nd Bundesliga. To this day the attendance record in Bundesliga 2. The encounter against FC Augsburg (2-1) will be a worthy conclusion to a brilliant season for Hertha, who had already secured promotion to the Bundesliga on Matchday 31. The return to the Bundesliga is of course also associated with the hope of becoming a permanent fixture in the Bundesliga again in the future. A goal that has not been fully achieved to date.
