Unnecessary and bitter

It was another home defeat against Wolfsburg that can be categorised as unnecessary. After the furious performance against Dortmund, the Werkself could have made up ground today against a fellow competitor for Europe and kept the opponent at bay. After the furious opening phase, you could almost guess that it would backfire. And lo and behold: suddenly, after a good half hour, it was actually 1:0 for the Wolves.

But the performance in the second half was off the charts. Trailing and then one shot on target in the second 45 minutes. The Werkself was lacking at all corners and ends today. We can do better and must do better again quickly, otherwise the other teams will be in the fast lane and we will suddenly only be in midfield.
