All he had to do was get the ball on target, but instead he fluffed his chance. You realize he was not in the right balance, right? Not sure what the English word is, in German we'd say Rücklage.

Yes, maybe so, but it was still a big chance missed. "Rücklage", I shall remember that word. Good luck against Hoffenheim in your next match. It's a must win game really for Fortuna, especially with two very tough games against Dortmund and Leipzig coming straight after on the fixture list. The one consolation, might be the fact that Mainz also have two tough fixtures remaining against Dortmund and Leverkusen, which one would expect them to lose.
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Great long range attempt from Neuhaus with a lobbed shot from his own half trying to catch Gikiewicz off his line and his attempt produced a back peddling diving save from the Polish goalie. Intelligent and spectacular effort from Neuhaus.
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Thuram also forces a save from Gikiewicz with a shot, but the Polish keeper caught the ball fairly comfortably.
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 Neuhaus! Goal Gladbach! Enjoyed watching him recently. Had a cracking effort saved from his own half and now persists to tuck it past Gikiewicz off the post. Deserved lead.
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Neuhaus scores with a great effort! A lovely run by him, where he beat his marker, before he got his shot off which hit the post and went into the net. Gladbach 1-0 Union Berlin
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Friedrich with a header over the bar for Union Berlin. Union are battling hard, but Gladbach are still dominant with the chances.
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Thuram with a lovely header from Plea's cross to score! Gladbach 2-0 up! Union Berlin's defending left a lot to be desired there.
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Well Gladbach as expected, with a dominant performance in that 1st half. Neuhaus was arguably the best player on the pitch and with his excellent form this season, it's surely just a matter of time before he's called up for the German national team. If Union don't show a significant improvement in the 2nd half, then it seems inevitable that Gladbach will add to their goals tally in this game.
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 Ooh, Berlin back in it? A quick goal after half-time. Close-range header after a Trimmel free-kick and an Ingvartsen assist for Andersson. On replays, very fortunate with the assist!
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Andersson pulls a goal back for Union with a header after the ball finds it's way to him from a set piece. Gladbach 2-1 Union
Michael Posted May 31, 2020 Posted May 31, 2020 Hermann goes close to scoring a 3rd for Gladbach as he managed to round the goalie only to put his shot wide under pressure from a Union defender.
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 3-1! What a lovely assist from Plea for Thuram to knock in. Very incisive pass to cut the defence open!
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 Ouch! Just saw the slow-mo replay of the Union player getting tackled. You can see part of his knee move in and out
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 Ha, what a nonchalant finish from Plea that was. Deft finish with his left-foot from about 12 yards out. Lovely. 4-1.
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 Sancho still looks a bit rusty
Administrator Stan Posted May 31, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 31, 2020 What a save from Paderborn's keeper. Hakimi denied!
