This is what the coaches say about the performance of their teams on this 9th match day.
VfL Bochum – Eintracht Frankfurt 0: 2 (0: 1)
Thomas Reis (VfL Bochum): “Of course we got into the game very well, that gives us confidence. I found the first half even, it was an open game. I was annoyed that we didn’t end the counterattack consistently But a big compliment to my team and the spectators, the atmosphere was fantastic. “
Oliver Glasner (trainer Eintracht Frankfurt): “The win for Bochum is okay because of the higher number of clear chances to score. We started very sleepy and actually started the game behind. After that, a lot came together, missed penalties and two injuries. We have tried everything, but if you only win 40 percent of the duels, you have a problem. The roller coaster ride continues. ”
VfB Stuttgart – 1. FC Union Berlin 1: 1 (0: 1)
Pellegrino Matarazzo (coach VfB Stuttgart): “As expected, it was a tough game with few high-quality scoring chances on both sides. The second half makes me extremely positive. The people who were in the stadium gave us energy and tailwind again.”
Urs Fischer (coach 1. FC Union Berlin): “The team showed the required and desired reaction. We had our opponents and the ball under control. We were very good at the game, in the end you have to close the bag. You can see that football can be brutal at times, but that’s part of it . I’m very happy with what the team showed today, they deserve a big compliment. ”
1. FC Cologne – Bayer Leverkusen 2: 2 (0: 2)
Steffen Baumgart (coach 1. FC Cologne): “We invited our opponents in the first half. Once again, we made it easy for our opponents. It was excellent for the boys to get back into the game like this. In the end it is a well-deserved draw.”
Gerardo Seoane (coach Bayer Leverkusen): “It was two completely different halves. In the first half we created the dangerous situations. We had a lot of situations in the majority, we should have scored more goals with more determination. Because of the second half, Cologne deserves the equalizer.”
Bayern Munich – TSG Hoffenheim 4-0
Dino Toppmöller (interim coach FC Bayern): “It was a well-deserved victory. The team played very strong football for 30 minutes. After 2-0 there was a bit of idle time. There was a lack of sharpness on the defensive, so Hoffenheim managed to get out. In the end we had another one We’ll all be happy when Julian (Nagelsmann, d.Ed.) comes back as soon as possible – and I can take a step back again. “
Sebastian Hoeneß (coach TSG Hoffenheim): “It was a deserved win for Bayern. We are not satisfied with the first half in particular. We wanted to be more courageous, but we were hesitant. Bayern punished that. We did create situations every now and then, but we lacked conviction We were braver in the second half and had two or three very good chances. ”
Hertha BSC – Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-0
Pal Dardai (coach Hertha BSC): “We had to confirm last week’s performance. The goal freed us a bit. In the second half we did well with compactness. It was difficult for Gladbach to play something. We ran more than our opponents and had the duels accepted. It was a well-deserved job win. “
Adi Hütter (coach Borussia Mönchengladbach): “I’m very upset and disappointed that we didn’t manage to score. We didn’t manage to make anything out of the superiority in the first 30 minutes. The referee whistled very petty, so the game was very chaotic. ”
RB Leipzig – SpVgg Greuther Fürth 4: 1
Jesse Marsch (trainer RB Leipzig): “We played really badly in the first half. It has a lot to do with Fürth’s performance. We played uncertainly. Thank God we had Yussuf Poulsen in the second half. He almost turned the game on his own. It is a story of two halves. And it’s good we had an answer. “
Stefan Leitl (coach SpVgg Greuther Fürth): “We saw a really good game by my team in the first half. We had good ball wins and switching moments. It would have been possible to lead higher at halftime. We were very satisfied with that. But we also knew that the Leipzigers will make a difference. It’s bitter that the equalizer and the lead fell so quickly. In total, the 4: 1 is perhaps a little too high. ”
VfL Wolfsburg – SC Freiburg 0-2
Mark van Bommel (coach VfL Wolfsburg): “We can get out of this situation one hundred percent, even if it takes too long for me. The important thing is that we don’t do any weird things now. We have to question the fact that we conceded another goal after a set piece.”
Christian Streich (coach SC Freiburg): “We currently have the momentum and the luck we need to go in the right direction. Both goals came at a good moment. But I will not be blinded. We know where we come from and who we are.”
Arminia Bielefeld – Borussia Dortmund 1: 3
Frank Kramer (trainer Arminia Bielefeld): “After a start-up phase, the team was very good in the game. Unfortunately we didn’t improve our chances. The penalty was extremely unlucky for us. I have to say that the team invested everything and never stopped.”
Marco Rose (Trainer Borussia Dortmund): “It was a very open game in the first half. We held against it in the duels and reacted well to losing the ball. Unfortunately, we missed out on zero at the back. It was a good reaction against an unpleasant opponent.”
1. FSV Mainz 05 – FC Augsburg 4:1
Bo Svensson (Trainer Mainz): “I’m very satisfied. We knew that there was a bit of pressure. We were annoyed about the last few games. We saw a reaction, even if we didn’t get on the pitch for more than 90 minutes.”
Markus Weinzierl (Augsburg trainer): “We can’t blame each other. That was unacceptable as a team. We couldn’t get the two strikers under control. The second half was better, but that’s not worth mentioning. Just like in the first 45 minutes you don’t play a Bundesliga game. ”
