Tuesday marked the 42nd anniversary of Borussia Monchengladbach's 2-1 victory over 1. FC Koln in the DFB-Pokal final, a match that saw Gunter Netzer score the winning goal in extra time.
Looking to rub some outdated salt in the wounds of their opponent from that memorable day, Monchengladbach took to Twitter and trolled Koln in brilliant fashion.

It's probably worth noting that Koln have claimed three DFB-Pokal titles since 1972-73, while Monchengladbach have only captured one.
