A sample of Terzićball: Welcome to the Bundesliga, Edin Terzić! Successor Lucien Favres at BVB barely had time from his performance to kick-off in Bremen to read his starting grid with first and last names. The first peculiarities of his game idea could already be glimpsed against Bremen: 4-1-4-1 as the basic order, Marco Reus as an influential creative player somewhere between eight and ten, some attractive phases in high pressure . And: Dortmund once again have a coach who can be heard through external microphones. Almost a breath from Jürgen Klopp crossed the Weser Stadium.
The first half: The handball metaphor is often used when trying to express dominance without goal area scenes with words. At the first half, however, it was often the case that it was not Dortmund who was pushing the ball around the Bremen penalty area, but Werder: Florian Kohfeldt’s team had great problems to overcome the first line of pressure from the Dortmund. The deficit was logical, but the pressure from BVB, which then relented, was an invitation: Werder was fully in the game at halftime and could even have led through an Augustinsson film (minute 44).
The second half: Dortmund held up better, but it was never as overwhelmingly good as in the beginning. With the best chance, Reus nosed in with a header to Jiri Pavlenka (72nd). Because Bremen provoked an avoidable penalty and for their part neither took an orderly nor really dangerously ahead with a lever, that should be enough.
Genius and madness: It is well known that superheroes only become interesting because of their human side. Bremen would have preferred it that night if goalkeeper Pavlenka had not exhibited his human weakness, “grip security”, in addition to his superpower “reflexes”. After the Czech held out for as long as humanly possible, Pavlenka slipped the ball, believed to be safe, out of his hands a quarter of an hour before the end, then hit Manuel Akanji as he tried to regain control of the ball. As a last joke, Pavlenka saved the Reus penalty, but could not with the margin.
Contact person: When talking about Raphael Guerreiro, the word “underrated” is almost certainly used. To the disadvantage of the Portuguese, he plays for a BVB that has never made the move from a good to a very good team in recent years, and then he is also nominally left-back. You cannot be the center of attention, but there is hardly a player in the Dortmund team that is that important. A dust goal like the one against Werder (12th) is not the reason, but an occasion to point out: Guerreiro had 115 ball contacts, almost in every game no other player participates as actively as he. The technical skill and intelligence of the game did the rest.
Three 911, it doesn’t make sense: Werder handles it like many in this pandemic: the people of Bremen spend their time with series. The nine games in a row without a win are certainly unpleasant, but other midfield clubs like Frankfurter Eintracht (and Schalke 04 shouldn’t even be mentioned here) pull it off. The fact that in the third game in a row a careless penalty led to defeat and ultimately defeat should give the people of Bremen pause.
Initiate difficulties: Youssoufa Moukoko does it wisely: he divides his age records. The 16-year-old was the youngest player in the Bundesliga before, and in Bremen he became the youngest player in the Bundesliga in a club’s starting line-up. Moukoko has to wait a bit until the youngest scorer in the Bundesliga: the Dortmund striker was busy on defense, but barely visible with the ball. 19 ball contacts in 79 minutes is the lowest number of all the players who have been on the field since the beginning. Only at the start of both halves did Moukoko cause a bit of danger when he came one step too late to insert five meters in front of goal. You should, yes, you have to take care of it.
Knowledge demo for those interested in Werder: On a total of three occasions, Sky commentator Markus Lindemann mentioned that Florian Kohfeldt wanted to bet more on long balls with the inclusion of Nick Woltemade. The offensive 18-year-old from Bremen is actually a redwood among homegrown ones: 1.98 meters tall allow associations with the Peter Crouches of this world. In the end, Woltemade won a single header duel, but processed the ball twice under pressure in a tight space – the youngster is not a striker at all, but a lanky coach who is only 8 inches tall for his type of player.
