Borussia Dortmund has played a safe victory at the Champions League start. Goalkeeper Gregor Kobel was then frustrated.
At the start of the new Champions League season, Borussia Dortmund already looked like the safe winner at the guest performance in Turin. At Juventus, BVB led deep into added time with 4: 2, but then two goals hit 4: 4 within three minutes. The frustration sat deep after the final whistle – especially with Gregor Kobel.
At Prime Video, the goalkeeper emphasized that the team was “disappointed” after the late compensation. The 27-year-old was quite to look at and listen to. “We have to win the game in the end. We are not allowed to get two goals in added time, which is very clear,” Kobel became clear. Although it was a good atmosphere at the Juventus Stadium, Juventus also has quality. “But it shouldn’t happen to us that in the end we still play a draw here after we actually played such a great game and actually could have scored three important points.”
The 4: 4 was the result of a wild second half in Turin. Dortmund took the lead through Karim Adeyemi after 53 minutes. After goals by Kenan Yildiz and Dušan Vlahović for Juventus (63./68.) And a goal by Felix Nmecha for BVB (65th) it was suddenly 2: 2. Yan Couto and Ramy Bensebaini (74./86.) As a result, brought the supposed decision before Vlahović (90. +4) and Lloyd Kelly (90. +6) put on the crown.
“We clearly said that in the second half we want to play more forward that we want to score goals,” Kobel analyzed his team’s game. “We did that too, but of course I am still pissed off after the game. Basically, it is ok to get a point at Juventus. “But of course we would have had the opportunity to get three. So of course it’s a shame.”
The Swiss particularly annoyed the defense behavior of his teammates in the final minutes. The game “cool and clarified” would have had to be completed, complained Kobel. “You just have to defend it. You have the ball, you live it forward, you play the time down and you’re done. We just have to play adult football at the end.”
