Nuremberg liberation at Desolate Düsseldorfers

Fortuna Düsseldorf slips deeper and deeper into the crisis. Against the Nuremberg, which was also struck, there was the next disappointment in the arena – the club and his coach Miroslav Klose landed a liberation with the 3-2 success on the Rhine. For Daniel Thioune, on the other hand, it will be very tight.

Rafael Lubach brought Nuremberg 1-0 in the 25th minute, anoar el Azzouzi equalized (67.). Julian Justvan scored 2-1 for the guests (80th) before Christian Rasmussen gave Fortuna hope again (83.). But in the 85th minute, Finn Becker put the lid on for Nuremberg.

“Stupid, naive, children’s football”

Düsseldorf’s goalkeeper Florian Kastenmeier showed himself to be frustrated accordingly after the game in the Sportschau interview: “Stupid, naive, children’s football”he summarized his team’s game. “We finally manage to score two goals at home and get three again. It doesn’t work at home, it doesn’t work away, it doesn’t work in the league. It’s just rarely stupid.”

For Düsseldorf coach Daniel Thioune, the air becomes even thinner after the fourth home defeat. “Frustration, disappointment, depression” were the first words that got the Fortuna coach in the head. “Everything that comes together when you have done so much more and get so little,” said Thioune, who struggled particularly with the performance in the first half.

Suddenly “brought in from the outside” ascent destination “

Fortuna’s sports boss Klaus Allofs made an amazing statement. The managing director suddenly did not want to know anything about the topic of “climb”, which he himself spent in June as a clear goal in June and curiously declared it “from the outside”. He said to the team’s performance: “After the victory in Bochum, the pressure was still there. I already imagined that we would see another game, but there was a lot of room for improvement.”

Nuremberg coach Klose was significantly solved after the important victory of his team: “The team has proven morality,” he praises. Klose, on which the pressure in the past less successful weeks has also grew, is “happy about the three points”.

Coaching seminar At halftime start

When the first half was long gone and the Düsseldorf players were already trotted into the cabin, the Fortuna coaching trio was still on the bench. All three looked very thoughtful, especially chief coach Thioune. He leaned deep in his red seat and looked quite stunned, while his assistant Manni Stefes and Jan Hoepner debated gestures. They definitely couldn’t exchange ideas about good scenes, there were no.

The goal shot ratio during the change of sides was 1: 7, in a home game. The often discussed value of the goal probability was actually meaningful this time: Fortuna was 0.08. In the duels, too, this team did not look like throwing everything in the balance for their strongly battered coach, the quota was 42.7 to 57.3 percent in favor of clubberers, where the coach was also supposed to be on the brink.

But Miroslav Klose was allowed to go into the catacombs with a very satisfied face. His Nuremberg dominance radiated enormous dominance from the kick -off, dominated the midfield and, until the break, also developed a clear overweight with the possession of almost 55 percent.

Breithaupt loses decisive duel

The 1-0 lead was even too low after this course, but the creation said a lot about Fortuna’s problems: Tim Breithaupt only lost the decisive duel in midfield, then also missed the Nuremberg counterattack by a tactical foul. Breithaupt also got zero support from his colleagues, so that Mohamed Ali Zoma was able to take on the pace freely and operate Rafael Lubach – the Florian Kastermeier did not look brilliant with a degree in the Torwarteck.

From a Fortuna perspective, it was a bad idea in all matters, but at the beginning of the second round it actually seemed as if the almost five-minute trainer seminar had fertilized. Düsseldorf suddenly set up pressure and had the big chance in the 55th minute to equalize: Danny Schmidt, who had only been substituted for the second half, got stuck on Fabio Gruber from a short distance, then club keeper Jan Reichert threw himself into the additional shot and buried him with a little dusel.

A penalty collected, one transformed

As a result, the guests missed using their rooms to counter, became more and more passive and finally collected the punishment for it: Schmid put the ball in the run of El Azzouzi, who did not make the ball optimally, but it gave it into the long corner unsustainably.

After that it got tricky. A quarter of an hour before the end, referee Wolfgang Haslberger pointed to the penalty point after Fortuna defender Tim Oberdorf Zoma had brought down. However, the Var ordered the impartial to the video circuit and there was noticing that Oberdorf’s action was the ball and that he had only put his foot in the shot movement of the Nuremberg – the penalty was collected again.

Rasmussens compensation is not enough again either

But three minutes later the ball was actually at the penalty point. Fortuna defender Moritz Heyer was shown pitifully on the outer lane, whose pass was played by Finn Becker on the hand of El Azzouzi – Justvan converted sovereign. But Fortuna reacted again, Joker Rasmussen overcame Reichert after a nice combination about Cedric Itten and El Azzouzi.

How fragile the whole structure is especially in the home games became clear only two minutes later: again, Heyer was disoriented by his own penalty area, Becker used the freedom to create a liberation for the club and Klose – while in Düsseldorf it is now being discussed again.
