While Borussia Dortmund are known for being one of the best teams in Germany, football fans from around the world will also know them for their bright yellow and black kits and their famous 'Yellow Wall'.

This Yellow Wall is located in the southern part of the Signal Iduna Park and can hold a staggering 25,000 standing Dortmund supporters, creating an electric atmosphere from the club's dedicated fanbase who continue to wave flags and beat drums throughout the match.

This Kop is the largest free-standing grandstand in Europe and can often be an intimidating sight for any side that visits.

On Tuesday evening, it was Mauricio Pochettino's Tottenham team that visited the Signal Iduna Park and Harry Kane and Co were treated to the spectacle that is the Yellow Wall before having to turn their attentions to matters on the pitch.

While this will be the only time Spurs will play in front of the Yellow Wall this season, they will more than likely have the chance of playing in front of their own 17,500-seater Kop, if they move into their new stadium before the start of April.

And it's easy to see why Spurs chairman Daniel Levy wanted his own version of the Yellow Wall in the new White Hart Lane.

Throughout Tottenham's impressive 1-0 win over Dortmund on Tuesday, the south stand continuously cheered their side on no matter what the circumstances.
