Barcelona vs Borussia Monchengladbach

The blackboard outside Tiles Bar and Bistro in Edinburgh became a social media sensation after their recent attempt to write the name of Celtic's opponents in match-day three of the 2016/17 Champions League. After a few failed attempts to write Borussia Mönchengladbach, the bar settled for A German Team.

The Bundesliga club responded well to the "A German team" naming and even the English version of the club's Twitter account was named A German Team.

So pleased were Die Fohlen Elf with their new moniker, the marketing department decided to produce a quantity of scarves for sale via the club's commercial outlets. 2,000 A German Team scarves were produced in the club's colours and sold out within 48 hours and with the visit of Celtic to Borussia Park tonight, the club are trying to secure more stock to meet demand.
