The Dortmund relief is great
to go As Table in the fourteenth round of the Bundesliga is tricky and uncomfortable, especially for Borussia Dortmund, a football team in the relegation battle has no experience. Late Friday night, after the hard-won 1: 0 on the TSG Hoffenheim, the day’s work seemed easier than it was, at least in the analysis of the coach. When Jürgen Klopp should consider the progress in words he said with ease that mattered.
“The most important finding is that we can actually score a goal and get none – even in a game,” he said. To make in defense as good as any mistakes and make the front (at least) once – this combination is not often Borussia managed in recent weeks and months. Yet they had from the beginning as a team that believes in being able to make it this time.

The header from Ilkay Gundogan from the seventeenth minute was enough to leave the last place for now and again to have reason to believe, to cope with the relegation battle, which is declared in Dortmund since at least a week. “We deserved to win, but more is not happening,” Klopp said.
No more, but enough to recent disappointments in Paderborn (2: 2) and Frankfurt (0: 2) to be absorbed. A narrow victory, fought with great difficulty against a weak opponent shape, would have been ticked in Dortmund as gray work still win a few months ago. On Friday, however, the work of the great black-yellow majority among the eighty thousand people in the stadium was a warm feeling when looking at the result.

None of Borussia made it a bit to let the high footballing claim fall, to be levied at this location otherwise, and the art of subordinating the fight. “In the end we sometimes just knocked off the balls when it got difficult and not even try to play nice,” said midfielder Sebastian Kehl.
This was not a sensitive group of artists at work, but a compact collective, with his football might send a message primarily: We withstand the pressure, heart and with rigor. Dortmund were not too bad to choose a rustic gait. “It was a fight,” Kehl said. It was clear Given the table stand that much would depend on the two combat strength.
“Sometimes it goes a bit unfair, but that’s part, we need to defend ourselves and the time we have very, very well done.” There unsuspected almost like a change in style that Gundogan decided the game, a representative of the filigree football; moreover, one that gradually comes back ride after an injury break of fourteen months. Gundogan succeeded for the first time since April 2013. a goal for BVB.
In the second half, offered enough chances to increase the lead, but in the end there was a lack of due diligence as it was already observed in games that were lost. Nevertheless, fell a second goal. Referee Felix Zwayer but it did not accept because he, the shooter, imagined Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang offside. Klopp fretted over this mistake.
“It would be cool if the goals that we shoot, would also count,” he said, alluding to a Dortmund goal in Paderborn, which was not recognized wrongly. Ultimately, however, kept the anger in check, because Zwayer Hoffenheim in the closing stages denied a penalty that would have granted them. Even Klopp would have understood if the referee would have recognized a penalty. “In such situations is already Penalty been caught,” Klopp said.
Because the pipe this time remained silent, Mitchell Langerak did not intervene in this situation. Klopp had the Australian situated surprisingly instead of goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller. Because his front men defended well and Hoffenheim was harmless in attack, Langerak got a chance to excel. The only chance that the opponent had, Mats Hummels nullified, who distinguished himself in his comeback fight than two strongest players on the field.
Will be
Whether the goalkeepers of time, could not or would not say Klopp after the final whistle. It was for the first “a gut feeling for this game.” Who next time the gate guards, he also had “ever not had any thoughts.”
But had Kehl, once captain thought before the game about how he could shake up the team, and decided to consult with a short speech to his colleagues. In parts of the statements do not seem to have been rated. Neither Klopp wanted to quote from it or players. It could indeed into the evening watching children said midfielder Kevin Grosskreutz. What Kehl has said may not be quotable, but apparently all his colleagues understood and acted upon. That’s worth a lot in a crisis, such as Borussia Dortmund they just experienced.
