If you're a football fan and you are unable to get tickets in the same end as your supporters for a big game, the alternative is normal to go in the away end and keep your lips sealed.

If it's an intense derby game, it's in your best interests to try and blend in with opposition fans and it would probably be a wise move not to show any signs of celebration if your team scores or else there's a good chance you will get your head kicked in.

But one Borussia Dortmund fan did not give a shit at all this weekend in the Ruhr derby between Schalke and her beloved BVB.

The game at the Veltins Arena ended 1-1 and a picture of the supporter in the home end began to do the rounds. It seems as though she was unable to get a ticket in the away end and as she desperately wanted to attend the game, opted to sit and watch the match with the home fans.

Normally if you are sat with rival fans, you'll make sure that your colours are not on show.

However, the woman in question took a brave approach and proudly sported her BVB home shirt.

Dortmund defender Marc Bartra quickly became aware of the fearless fan and declared his intentions of finding her, tracking her down and giving her a shirt.
