A wild game against Hoffenheim cost Gladbach the chance of Europe. The fans reacted in an unattached manner and in turn angered their club boss.
The whistles of the fans had been falling away for a while, but Roland Virkus did not get out of his head of the Gladbach spectators. “That angry me,” said the managing director in the catacombs of the Borussia park about the reaction of the audience in the late equalization in added time against TSG Hoffenheim: “You felt that the boys are dead, but they gave everything to do the 4: 4-and no sow is happy. I didn’t understand that.”
In fact, Borussia delivered another wild game – but no reason for euphoria. The 4: 4 (2: 1) against the table 15. Mede the fifth winless game in a row. The Gladbacher gave up two tours, and the last chance of international business was finally out of reach. The disappointment was noticeable on and off the square.
“It’s the worm in it,” said Rocco Reitz at Sky. The midfielder, who met himself, spoke of an emotional roller coaster ride. Hoffenheim’s Tim Kleindienst, goal scorer to compensate, clearly criticized your own defense performance: “You can’t score that, you can’t score so many goals.”
The Gladbacher stay loyal to the end of the season: many goals, no victories. The offensive in the past three games scored nine goals, but the defensive conceded eleven goals. Light and shadow alternate – a symbol for this was Fabio Chiarodia on Saturday. The 19-year-old hit the Bundesliga for the first time in the 5th minute after producing a heavy mistake in the previous week in Kiel (3: 4).
Coach Gerardo Seoane summarized the game like this: Rarely had he experienced a game in which “both teams feel like a defeat”. While his team gambled away their good starting position in the fight for the top ranges, the TSG continues to wait for the safe relegation. Hoffenheim still has a five -point lead over the relegation site – the team could make everything clear on Friday in Wolfsburg.
