Were's still not dealing with a satisfactory result here as the visiting 1848ers should have capitalized on a myriad of defensive errors from Edmond Tapsoba and Jonathan Tah.Īfter last round's thriller at the Castrop, the appetite for another spectacular story involving the league's non-embarrassment promoted team was just too strong to be satiated. Florian Wirtz certainly did his thing, missing out on the 2-0 only by a whisker in the 16th and the 39th. The low-scoring affair taken by hosts Bayer 1-0 on a 4th minute goal wasn't totally devoid of action. Neither the segue nor the classification of Leverkusen-Bochum as "boring" can be considered totally fair. Now they're stuck on nine points ahead of a meeting with Bayern in one of those "We have to show a reaction" games. They could have pulled themselves up to the relegation playoff spot. That one should end up being a real cracker! When it comes to the round ahead, once again spare some empathy for poor Bielefeld.
Presumably, Kohfeldt will have time to smooth some of this out in time for the UCL fixture and next weekend's duel against Dortmund. Builds are almost non-existent in this rough 3-4-3. Way too much of the attack comes from long-launches out of the back three. There also seems a persistent lack of communication with regard to link up play. Lots of direct midfield duel losses and half-baked ideas on the charge. Plenty of bad and disjointed football on display before the blitz-strike late-comeback. Those of us still not convinced that Florian Kohfeldt has put together something wholly convincing in at his new club found quite a bit of validation in the 2-2 draw. Then came Dodi Lukebakio's fresh-legged flare off the bench and a collective team blackout on the subsequent play. Leather-faced veteran club hero Fabian Klos converting from the spot to double the advantage and potentially put the game beyond reach. Masaya Okugawa playing so thoroughly lionhearted that one was sure he would deliver the second. The masked superhero Patrick Wimmer fighting hard to set-up the opening goal.
