Super, an opening victory: Markus Gisdol finds it prima
The 93 minutes in the Rhein-Neckar-Arena in front of 23,792 spectators were not a great spectacle as so often in the past Bundesliga season at home games but the TSG took the lead in the second half, safely over time. After 70 goals conceded in the last round is indeed a season goal of reducing the number of strikes into his own net. TSG coach Markus Gisdol was very happy after the successful start of the round, he said. “For us it is important to find the balance in defense and still not lose our offensive power”
yesterday hinted the team their great playing skills only in phases – but then with impressive efficiency. Within 90 seconds, the TSG decided the game and took advantage of this gross error of Augsburg audible. The 1: 0 scored the new center forward Adam Szalai in instinctive Abstaubermanier (33) after first Augsburg captain and goalkeeper Marwin Hitz Paul Verhaegh could not clarify. And after a quick Hoffenheim’s shot after winning the ball and crass mistake of FCA central defender Jan-ginger Callsen-Bracker pushed the greatly improved Tarik Elyounoussi the ball after ball into the goal for decision Firmino (35). It was the first hit of the Norwegian in his second season at TSG. With notorious Pressing Hoffenheim wore down the weak Augsburg. However, they played at private possession often too hectic and then looked exhausted at the end.
But the new defense did not allow goal, goalkeeper Oliver Baumann had only once, after an attempt from substitute Shawn Parker, clarified (75). Above all, the come from Braunschweig central defender Ermin Bicakcic made his nickname “Iron Ermin” all honor. The 24-year-old Bosnian won almost all battles sovereign and confident with secure positioning and good look in the game design. Even coach Gisdol was surprised how quickly Bicakcic has integrated athletic. And: “It may hurt to play against him. He is a key communicator for us, “praised Gisdol.
This is also true for Eugen Polanski, who saw in the absence of the injured Pirmin Schwegler defensive midfielder for stability. Polanski and the TSG also agreed on a contract extension until the 2017th While the TSG Hoffenheim proved to have upside potential, the FC Augsburg has only a few marches will find new. “We have not yet running around,” admitted FCA manager Stefan Reuter: “We must all now be fighting in the season.”
