The Werkself continued its upward trend with a 3-2 win at Borussia Mönchengladbach. At the end of Matchday 16, our team built up a 3-0 lead, but had to shiver at the end due to a late double strike by Borussia. From the black-and-red perspective, it was not only the points on this icy Sunday evening that were pleasing, but also the comeback of Flo Wirtz in a competitive match.
The decisive factor for the victory was clearly the fact that the Werkself's wing players had much more speed, so that the Gladbachers were clearly overwhelmed on one or two occasions. Player of the match for me was Amin Adli. The Frenchman was on the move with a lot of dynamism, also asserting himself against his opponents in tight spaces and showing a few nice feints in the process. He won a running duel against the almost helpless Nico Elvedi and scored the 2:0 goal. The 22-year-old also prepared the 3:0 goal.
However, the two goals conceded at the back also show that you have to be wide awake until the end. That can also go wrong against a stronger opponent. The three points are important, and on Wednesday against Bochum the Werkself must find its way back to its old home strength.
