Subscriber nudge+ Posted September 14, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted September 14, 2019 Another penalty for us, Gickiewicz saves, corner, Füllkrug scores with a powerful header. 1-2 for us! What a weird match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ Posted September 14, 2019 Author Subscriber Share Posted September 14, 2019 Uff... a tough match but 3 points in the end; so relieved. I must say that the game got completely out of control though; with numerous interruptions, three penalties given (two of them very debatable), two red cards (still don't know what was the reason for Sahin's second yellow), a yellow card for Kohfeldt, and everyone falling down in the box and then running to the ref asking for a penalty/handball. Ridiculous really. Gebre Selassie man of the match for me. So reliable, even when played out of position; did his job really well today. Him and Groß looked much better today than I expected them too; Lang and Friedl also more than decent. Klaassen finally back to his old self; running and fighting from the kick off till the final whistle, unbelievable work rate. A somewhat disappointing match for Osako and Johannes Eggestein, probably the result of the international matches. Bittencourt looks like he's been playing for Werder for a few years already, so good. Can't wait to see more of him, especially once most of our other key players are back. A very important win; bring on Leipzig now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had more of the play and more shots but we didn't take our chances and our defending wasn't good either. I'd personally like one of Abraham or Hasebe replaced by one of the younger talented defenders like Toure or N'Dicka. But I thought we really missed Kostic today, his creativity and his crosses are key to our game. But we can't make too many excuses, we just didn't take our chances today and we were punished by Augsburg. It's interesting to note that we also lost 2-1 to Augsburg last season, it seems like we don't like going there to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like Werder played quite well despite all their injury troubles. It's good to hear that Klaassen is regaining form, he's the key player for me and if he starts playing well again, I think that bodes well in general for the team.

To be fair, we didn't play that well but it was a hard fought win and it's admirable how committed everyone was... fighting for every ball and for every inch of the pitch, going in every challenge. It's a bit of a cliché but matches like these are a real test of character and attitude. In terms of actually playing football it was a pretty poor performance by both teams; we maybe tried a bit more going forward, made less mistakes and also had a bit more luck. I'm not complaining though; especially given how depleted our squad is and how the flow of the game was ruined by very poor refereeing. It's a pity we'll be now missing Sahin against Leipzig next week... Sorry about Frankfurt losing; it's never easy playing Augsburg. A win would have been good today though, especially ahead of next week's matches against Arsenal and then BVB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted September 15, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted September 15, 2019 Weird match probably a draw was the correct result in the end with a little better quality we could have squeaked out a win. RB came out alot stronger in the second half, we had the first. VAR had a part to play and finally made the correct call with a little bit of surprise. The penalty on Hernandez is a weird one it's clumsy for him to go in like that and there was contact but Poulson was looking to draw the foul the whole way I hate plays like that but it is what it is.
