Nine seconds. What can be done all in nine seconds? A song title of the “Beatles” guess for example. A serving of rice heat at 900 watts in the microwave. Or just 100 meters race (but only if you Usain Bolt’s called).
Internal nine seconds but can be surprisingly also a goal in the Bundesliga shoot . Dortmund and Leverkusen have proved on Saturday night in the late part of the first matchday. Nine seconds – as long as it took for Borussia with 0: 1 lay back. The match ends 0: 2 (0: 1), but will be remembered two things: long term the fastest goal in the 50 years long history of the league. Medium term, the fact that Bayer away has enormously strong position plays before 80,677 spectators.
Normally infuses the scenery in the Dortmund stadium itself experienced players respect one. All the more remarkable, as the research team of the new Leverkusen coach Roger Schmidt from the opening whistle went off to work and how they take the first attack crowned with success. Hakan Calhanoglu fit after the kick-off to the left to Heung-Min Son, from where the ball found its way to Sebastian Boenisch. Boenischs pass again took Karim Bell Arabi on, he was quickly BVB defender Matthias Ginter stand and at the near post at the Dortmund goalkeeper Mitchell Langerak pass into the goal.
Nine seconds. As the experts and the laity were amazed wondering. A similar early goal end of March 2013 was in the Bundesliga last Adam Szalai of Mainz succeeded against Werder Bremen. He met then officially after 12.5 seconds. In the match against Ecuador Lukas Podolski had met two months later, just like Bell Arabi after nine seconds
The interesting question Saturday night so was not. How would Jürgen Klopp’s team act, but: How would she react? “For the first goal, I have no explanation. The game has become strange because the first minute,” the BVB coach says afterwards.
With the leadership in back remained Leverkusen always dangerous. Impressive to see how quick they implement the credo of their coach: “attack early, play fast forward and a quick conclusion,” all that had Roger Schmidt his players to put on the road for the first, the same very difficult positioning of the season in Dortmund.
Philosophy and handwriting of the new Bayer coach were clearly visible in the mid-term one. Even the SC Paderborn and Red Bull Salzburg Schmidt had indeed trimmed to teams that have the Umschaltspiel by far the fastest dominated.
His Elf “many things right, the opponents attacked early. We had great ball gains, had these situations but even better play, “analyzed Schmidt.
Borussia Dortmund was Saturday, so to speak successfully fought with his own weapons . After a good half hour Bayer led in terms of shots on goal (7: 3) as well as in terms of challenges won (58:42 percent), rarely visibly irritated Dortmund team had so few offensive actions such as this evening. Apart from a dangerous header Ginter there were few really compelling actions. On the opposite side whirled 14.5-million-euro-access Calhanoglu and Co. continue
With the 1:. 0 lead it went for Bayer in the cabin , Team Manager Hans-Peter Lehnhoff however schwante: “The 45 minutes have taken a lot of power.” Leverkusen would have to pay his aggressive playing style tribute? Wednesday, Bayer had played so 90 minutes in the Champions League qualifier against FC Copenhagen (3: 2).
In fact, Jürgen Klopp’s team solved after its tactical switch – 4-2-3-1 with double six instead of 4-4-2 with diamond – the beginning of the second half from the encirclement of the enemy. The offensive acted purposeful, the actions were safer as a strong Marco Reus got from now on more rooms
alone. Countable did not jump out. The best chances Dortmund defeated Bayer keeper Bernd Leno after head balls (84, 85 minutes). Then, in the final phase of the storm BVB in, Erik Durm vertändelte a ball on Bell Arabi. The fit to Stefan Kiessling and Kiessling scored the 2: 0 (90 + 5). “We made a big game,” beamed his coach, “at the end of the day we deserved to win.” Kiessling, it was also, who sighed. “We play a little wild against the ball”
