  "account": "On 12 May 2012, Borussia Dortmund secured their first-ever domestic double by defeating Bayern Munich 5-2 in the DFB Cup final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin. The match was characterized by Dortmund's dominant high-octane transition football, led by Shinji Kagawa, while Bayern's Arjen Robben scored a penalty to slow Dortmund's onslaught. Robert Lewandowski, who would later become a Bayern legend, scored twice in first-half injury time and extended his team's lead to 4-1 in the second half. The match, later dubbed \"the night the Yellow Wall stood tallest in Berlin,\" showcased Dortmund's tactical audacity and exacting hunger, leaving a lasting impact on both clubs and the world of football.",
