Jamie Carragher has been enjoying his time with Borussia Dortmund fans ahead of tonight’s Champions League final.
The Liverpool legend enjoyed a boozy night out as he sat in the ‘Yellow Wall’ for their Champions League semi-final first-leg win at Signal Iduna Park last month.
Carragher, who was sent into the stands by CBS Sports, later revealed that he suffered from a hangover after having eight pints with Dortmund fans.
Ahead of tonight’s showpiece event where the German side play 14-time winners Real Madrid, Carragher reunited with Dortmund fans in London on Friday.
In a video posted by CBS Sports, Carragher is seen smiling away with a beer in his hand, singing with the Dortmund fans.

Clearly, Carragher had learnt a song with his time with the Dortmund fans on his trip to Germany last month, and he was enjoying himself as he immersed himself in the raucous atmosphere as their supporters prepared for tonight’s final.
He can then be heard shouting: ‘Where have you gone now Madrid?’
A comment from a fan in the background then makes Carragher burst out into laughter before he returns to nursing his beer, while draped in a Dortmund scarf.
The club’s social media page responded by saying: ‘Jamie Carragher is Black and Yellow.’
His time in Germany saw Carragher drink ‘eight pints’ throughout the course of the evening and eventful post-match interviews saw him treat Jadon Sancho like a close friend, while PSG manager Luis Enrique refused to do an interview with him.
As Carragher lined up alongside Peter Schmeichel to conduct the post-match interviews, a concerned Abdo asked him: ‘Are you sober enough to do this Jamie?’
He replied: ‘You know that’s actually a good point. I haven’t had too much to eat. I had a cheeseburger around half two.
‘That might explain why I might be slurring my words because I’ve had about eight pints in the Yellow Wall.

‘I’ve got a new family, a family and friends. We all looked after each other.’
46-year-old Carragher might have had a tinge of regret when he woke up the next morning after telling Kate Abdo and Thierry Henry that he was ‘hungover’, but beamed as he looked back fondly on his experience.
Speaking on the CBS show, Carragher said: [I was] Hungover. But I loved it, it was on the bucket list I said that going to Borussia Dortmund as a football fan.
‘I have never actually been on the Kop and sang You’ll never walk alone but have now done it in the Yellow Wall.
‘To sing You’ll Never Walk Alone and be in their with my new family and friends was something I’ll never forget. It was brilliant, I absolutely loved it.
‘When I go next time I am going exactly there, I know where it is and those people are there week after week. Kaiser and Kaiser,’ he added.
