Hertha BSC
Freiburg (dpa) – Bruno Labbadia had carefully considered his words. It is very rare that he even does something like that, said the frustrated Hertha BSC coach. After the 1: 4 defeat at SC Freiburg, he did it.
Labbadia buttoned his noble engineer Matheus Cunha. The appearance of the Brazilian national soccer player in the first half was “underground”, said the 54-year-old. “He pulls himself down, doesn’t perform well, pulls the team down.” After the clear bankruptcy in Breisgau, the “Big City Club”, which started with great ambitions, is now actually downstairs.
PROBLEM ZONES: Once again, the Berliners’ dependency on Cunha was shown in the Black Forest Stadium. If the Brazilian doesn’t work, Hertha doesn’t seem to work either. After his bloodless performance, Labbadia took the 21-year-old down during the break. Only without him did the guests pull themselves together. Substitute Javairo Dilrosun put on Dodi Lukebakio (52nd), who scored 1: 1 in the meantime. Then Hertha pushed for the opening goal. But when Ermedin Demirovic (59th) made 2-1 out of nowhere, the Berlin riot was over. Manuel Gulde (67th) and Nils Petersen (90th + 3 / foul penalty) followed up.
CRISIS: In the short winter break, 13 points after 13 games are now on the account of Hertha, who were spiced up with a lot of money before the season. Instead of dreaming of Europe, it could now go against relegation. «I’m less annoyed with where we are now. I’m more annoyed about where we could have been, ”said Labbadia. And above all, the appearance of his team annoyed him in the first round. The coach must have been shocked that the Berliners appeared so defenseless. That is why he could not stand in front of his team, said Labbadia. The next few weeks could also be uncomfortable for the trainer.
SERIES: What is missing from Hertha, Freiburg had mercilessly shown. Right from the start, coach Christian Streich’s team exuded readiness and the will to win. The reward was the third win in a week. “It’s crazy sometimes in football. It feels like we’ve made more points in one week than we did in three months, ”said the happy 55-year-old.
