BVB victory in the DFB Cup: Sloppy semi-finals
In the DFB Pokal against Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia Dortmund was known weaknesses conclusion yet reached the semifinals. At the end of a standard situation decided the quarterfinals. But where would the team of Jürgen Klopp, if it did not deal so sloppy with its opportunities?
As referee Knut Kircher had finished the game, sounded cheerful songs from the Frankfurt Fankurve. Why not? Finally, the hosts were just barely at Borussia Dortmund failed and had the favorite shooter.
That was not good enough to at least force an extension was due to a scene from the 83rd Minutes, the annotated acidified an otherwise good-humored Frankfurt coach: "That after a standard situation, we lose the game, makes me sad." Especially since it is this was a variant ("that extend to the far post"), before Armin Veh had his players at half-time nor specifically warned: a corner of Hendrikh Mkhytaryan prolonged Sebastian Kehl to the back, where Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang the Ball only had heads over the line to make 8000 BVB fans happy.

Eintracht 0 - 1 Dortmund |
Dortmund's victory was not undeserved. In the "final en route to the semi-finals" ( Jürgen Klopp though) actually played both teams as aggressive as it had announced their coaches. Therefore, the spectators saw a high-class, fast-paced game. A small difference in quality between two good teams but was just to see that. And that was not just the significant opportunities Dortmund-Plus. If Mkhytaryan, Aubameyang, Nuri Sahin and Robert Lewandowski whirled up the last third of the game, it went many Frankfurter similar to the bulk of the Bundesliga Defensive: It's simply a little too fast. So it came to opportunities of Aubameyang (13), Sahin (33), Mkhytaryan (38) and Kevin Grosskreutz (39./79.). However, to hits it did not come. "We have super switched," said Klopp annoyed. "The odds were huge, but we have to make because the gates stop."
The old familiar discussion where this dynamic, strong team probably would if they would not deal so sloppy with their chances, so it can be continued safely. Everything else worked fine, however in Frankfurt : BVB began in the last third of the first half, each Frankfurter attack on the halfway line from, for 70 minutes showed strong football - and would have been still can not complain if he with a 0-1 would have gone into the break. But Sebastian Rode screwed up an inch-perfect cross by Johannes Flum conceivable unhappy: he flailed simply on the ball "It is bitter as a game to lose," said team-mate Sebastian Jung annoyed. "We are taken on an absolute top team and were equivalent."
That may be have been a bit exaggerated, but the harmony played much better than you could expect from a team from the last third of the table. Finally, the ball runs very presentable through the ranks, the route to goal was also against BVB always in view. Only that this is also precisely the weakness of the game is Frankfurt: Both full-back moved sometimes very far, after turnovers had the defensive for it accordingly disordered. A less playful lace-team as the BVB - we call it simply times: Bayern Munich - would have won very clearly that evening.
Jürgen Klopp still praised the game system of concord ("very great footballing Plan") - probably also because he sees a kindred spirit in fellow Veh: Both have a 3:2 rather than a 1:0 when 90 minutes earlier, pretty good for football offer have.
Beautiful game? If Frankfurt's defender Carlos Zambrano plays along, this is not true at least for the opponent. And no matter whether the man is now provokes now and again - it is and remains the master of the hidden fouls. It speaks for the Dortmund players that they noted that only very discreetly, "I will not attack Zambrano" said Nuri Sahin. "But it's not that a game every two minutes must be interrupted."
