Even on the sixth matchday, Gladbach is waiting for a win. The sporty crisis in the “foals” is heading.
Borussia Mönchengladbach also missed a victory in the sixth Bundesliga game this season. Against SC Freiburg, the previous bottom of the table only won a 0-0, so it has only three points in the account. After the separation of coach Gerardo Seoane and the resignation of sports manager Roland Virkus, the Gladbach crisis is worsened.
For Borussia it was the 13th league game in series without success – the traditional club had never had a longer dry spell before.
Both teams fought a duel from the start at a very manageable level. A week after the 4: 6 debacle against Eintracht Frankfurt, the Borussia tried in the game. However, flanks or passes in the top were often too inaccurate to be dangerous.
It took almost half an hour until the first real chance. Florian Neuhaus, who was in the starting eleven for the first time this season, staged Rocco Reitz. But his Freiburg counterpart Christian Günter clarified the shot of the Gladbach captain.
Freiburg retired and let the hosts come. Borussia did not bring about much more than a few more harmless shots of distance. After all, the defensive of the Gladbacher looked safe for the few attempts to attack the SCF. Against Frankfurt it had already stood 0: 5 at halftime and the players had been adopted into the cabin with whistles.
This time there was encouraging applause from the Gladbach fans at the break, who thanked a large saying band at the sports director Roland Virkus for 35 years of work in the club. Borussia had already had promising discussions in the succession search, said Managing Director Stefan Stegemann at DAZN. It did not become much more specific.
At the beginning of the second half, Gladbach showed more offensive urge than the guests at the beginning of the second half. With a new house attempt from 20 meters, Freiburg’s keeper Noah Atubolu had no problems. On the other hand, Jan-Niklas narrowly missed the Gladbach goal with a head. The scene after almost an hour was the best chance to score Freiburg until then.
However, the guests now became a little researcher. Substitute Johan Manzambi moved away from a short distance. The Freiburg Gate was now in the air. Especially when Derry Scherhann put a free kick on the crossbar (83.). Gladbach defended further attempts to attack with luck and skill. The Borussia itself was no longer dangerous.
