Soccer - Mönchengladbach commemorates long-time stadium announcer Göttel

Borussia Mönchengladbach paid tribute to long-time stadium announcer Rolf Göttel before the Bundesliga match against Werder Bremen on Friday evening. According to the club, Göttel died on Friday at the age of 79. He was "the voice of the Bökelberg" until 1992.

Göttel is still regarded as the most famous stadium announcer in Gladbach's Bundesliga history. His distinctive "Goal for Borussia", which he recited matter-of-factly in Rhenish singsong after every Gladbach goal, is still played over the loudspeakers every time Borussia scores.
