From Dortmund reports Patrick Brandenburg
In the end, could not believe it really all what had just happened on the lawn of the former Westfalenstadion. 0 Gala
The guests, however in the Borussia Dortmund-duel against Mönchengladbach wondered what: after err 4 – For the fans of black and yellow to disbelief moved with childlike joy from. Tornado was there just swept over them. Even for Thomas Tuchel had the perfect Bundesliga debut a bit surreal at his new club. It was the highest debut victory of a coach in the history of BVB. “So of course that was not foreseeable today.”
The hope of a decent start was at BVB certainly present, even when coach himself. But that again succeed so quickly after the last epidemic season, such a exclamation mark to set – it would even the wildest optimists did not believe. With variable game strong combinations, tempo football and effective completion of Dortmund has an impressive return.
And that. Against a club that soon plays Champions League In just a few weeks with a new coach Dortmund has visibly developed. The always thoughtful to modesty Tuchel had not even arrogant, as he recognized: “We deserved to win even in the height.”
BVB burns an offensive fireworks from
After all was the clear result no two opinions. Gladbach’s goalkeeper Yann Sommer spoke after the opening defeat even by a “class difference” and a “lesson”. In particular in the first half burned BVB from an offensive fireworks, which also concerns children Dortmund shined. Mats Hummels about which recently caused with his confession of past frustration-food stir, played with great ease and as in better times. The national team was the BVB Quarterback: A number of attacks were from the wise build-up play of the defense chiefs. So the first two by Marco Reus (15th minute) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (. 21).
The other two goals put Henrikh Mkhitaryan after (33., 50.), realizing his great early form of the preparation was confirmed. Six goals and three assists are four official matches already for him to book. Against Gladbach would have even one more goal for “Micki” may be, but referee Tobias Stieler recognized incorrectly offside. Dortmund’s most expensive purchase of the club’s history seems to plan and to be about to make the breakthrough at the third attempt. The Armenians showed enthusiasm, self-confidence and no longer considered possible goal instincts. He flourishes under Tuchel, but the coach says modestly: “. We seem to have a rapport with each other”
“The youth-defense was not the problem”
The Gladbach had not even be able to complain about a higher defeat: In Hummels’ header saved on the line Raffael (36th), at Ilkay Gündogans distance Kracher Keeper summer was just the spot (87). And in between was aimed Shinji Kagawa from the best firing position a little too closely (66). BVB not subsided even after the clear interval lead. It is this aspect impressed Tuchel: “This is the art: draufzupacken for such first 45 minutes one more.”
Of course, the Dortmund victory was facilitated by the fact that Gladbach had traveled with personnel worries: The defender Martin Stranzl and Alvaro Dominguez missing injured Mittelfeldabräumer Harvard Nordtveit was locked. But not even visiting coach Lucien Favre wanted to leave as an excuse to be the 19-year-old Andreas Christensen competed in central defense with the 20-year-old Marvin Schulz and. He had still large parts of those troops available, which had put an insane second half of last season. “The youth-defense was not the problem. The entire team had problems with the pace.” Say: In the center of the Moenchengladbach were overwhelmed and left the BVB too large spaces
BVB in the fourth competitive match in a row without conceding a goal
When BVB could yet prove to be advantageous. that the club had to enter as early in the compulsory program of the Europa League. It seems to have certainly not hurt to be able to afford without consequence some wobbles in the 3rd qualifying round. Against Gladbach, a team at least two levels higher level than the Wolfsberger AC, made the now-established Dortmund on the defensive and nothing remained now in its fourth competitive match in a row without conceding a goal. After Dortmund conceded a whopping 42 league goals last season, the club appears also in this respect on the right track.
