The mid 1990s represented a return to the upper reaches of the German game for Borussia Mönchengladbach. The astute coaching of Bernd Krauss and smart acquisitions of future stars like Stefan Effenberg, Patrick Andersson, Martin Dahlin and Heiko Herrlich created a powerful side alongside long-serving stalwarts Uwe Kamps, Michael Klinkert and Christian Hochstätter. This up-turn culminated in a DFB-Pokal win in 1995, the club's first major honour since 1979.
