However, it should hurt the “cops” a bit to have lost points in the previous three games. Not only and especially in the first 2-2 game against Lok, but also in the games against the clear favorites Bayern Munich (2: 6, 1: 3) and Athletic (2. 3). Time and again, the defense came into the media crossfire. After all, he has conceded at least one goal in every international game this season and in seven of the nine league games.
“It’s a shame we conceded a goal,” Marsch said Tuesday. The late connection hit by the Russians after an avoidable foul of André Ramalho (“I apologize to the team”), but he made it exciting for just a few moments in the 79th minute anyway, because Karim Adeyemi a little later with 3: 1 (81º) I closed the bag. Marsch, however, was extremely pleased with the behavior of his troops. “Today we have defended very well, especially with standards, where Lok has many great players,” said the American and once again emphasized the character of his team: “For me it is also a mentality, the feeling that we have Do everything possible for protecting our objective. That was very, very clear today. “
The mentality again showed double goalscorer in Moscow Mergim berisha (28, 41). The German under-21 kicker already has seven goals in the current CL and took over at least until Wednesday against the former Salzburg player Erling haaland (BVB / 6 goals) the list of top scorers. Berisha was humble as always. “I think we got very good in the innings, we played our game and we were very brave. They all ran for each other,” said the 22-year-old. “I’m very happy for him,” Marsch said again. “He wasn’t always totally happy, but when he got the chance, he delivered.” Once closed Altach, the LASK Y Magdeburg Award-winning Berisha outperformed in preseason despite stiff competition and has now finally made it to Salzburg.
The same can be said for Adeyemi. Berisha’s compatriot has been mainly in the Youth league Noted, even in the Bundesliga he only played 16 games. Now he was able to celebrate his first goal in his third “real” European Cup match. Hunted on the center line Murilo the ball, seconds before he had faced the Brazilian as a result of a commotion after the goal. “That was the perfect response to what happened before,” he said in the interview with Sky. “I ran as fast as I could, I’m over the moon,” he said of the goal and his 34 km / h sprint and promised: “It will be faster.”

It remains to be seen how quickly the young star will leave Salzburg. the FC Barcelona He should have already offered around 15 million euros for Adeyemi in autumn 2019. The club is aware of the value of his action and extended the contract with the forward in January this year until 2024. “He is a great talent. We believe he has a great future “, emphasized Marsch, who finds more and more alternatives in the offense: In the end, the six-time league scorer gave Patson daka his return earlier than originally expected after a five-week injury break, Masaya okugawa at least he sat on the bench.
