Is Weigl not playing?

Tuchel probably wanted to give the other players a chance thinking this opponent is weaker but forgot Ginter cant play football, Castro is no right defender and the other team must be able to play at least decently to get this far

LOL

well aritificial turf is a thing. I remember that Germany played somewhere on it under Loew. It was by far the worst performance by Germany.

Hummels is having too many days where he just looks like a chicken without a head to be worth 40 mil or what stupid amount teams are willing to pay for him. He is realllllllllly good but his off days just kill the entire team sometimes.
Well and there is the fact that 3 or 4 of those 11 shouldnt be playing because there are better options

Wow 3:1, comeback time or just the calm before the norwegian storm?

I have no doubt Dortmund will make it through, so I kinda hope they lose for being behind up to 3-0. Expecting something like 3-3 though.

Good to see Tuchel fixes the mistake of Castro as right defender and the 2-3 is not a bad start
maybe they can turn this around

Great that he fixes his mistake, but he needs to get his shit together and get 7 or 8 more goals this tie.
Pande is way to smug.

They still can't fix their scoring even if their lives would depend on it, they need so many chances to score
Yeah ok i get it BVB, every time i write what i dislike you do everything to make me look like an idiot. At least its 3-3 now

But fair enough on the technical ability thing. American sports are more physically based then soccer.


I don't support this argument at all. Football players can't be bulky muscular guys because they'd take 15 minutes to rotate around their own axis. Football requires a completely different body definition. They are extreme athletes in their own right with massive endurance. American sports players wouldn't be able to keep up longer than 15 minutes in the modern day of football.

One could argue that the cyclist that ride the tour de France each year are extremely physical but they all weigh like 50 kg's.

Maybe it's just arguing semantics though because your definition of 'physical' may be different.

They could have easily scored 10 this game, but to be fair they hit the woodwork 4 times. And still a nice comeback, 0-3 must have been quite the shock.

odd leading 3-0 against dortmund after 22 minutes is literally the weirdest football result I've seen in my life.

Fantastic day for Norwegian club football though. Besides Odd shocking europe for the better part of an hour, Rosenborg won 3-0 away vs Steua Bucurest, which basically means that fk yeah back in europe!! And this time with a good team again hehe. Although this match was a total robbery, Steua was dominating for large portions of the match, way more chances, one rosenborg goal was clearly offside, but oh well, finishing and goalkeeping are important parts of the game.
Molde also beat Standard Liege 2-0 at home which is also nice!

Respect for Odds. Sure we shouldn't have made a lot of mistakes but you need to use the openings given to you and Odds did just that in fantastic fashion. They played exactly how you want an underdog to play. Intense game but I'll hope we can close it out early next week or I'll fall off the stands because of a heart attack.

What I really take from this game is that we have a rb-problem. Pisczcek was by far the weakest player during the pre-season and now that he and Durm are injured Tuchel has to decide if he trusts one of our youth players or if we need to spend some more money. The difference between our left and right side has been enormous. I'm not a fan of "suddenly" spending money because of 1-2 games but even against the Asian teams during our promo-journey the right side was extremely weak.

That performance in the beginning sure was Castro's way of saying I'd rather sit on the bench than play right back.

Yeah i am happy they pulled it back but even though Odds played good, winning 4-3 is nothing BVB can be proud of^^ glad they showed moral and won though. They really have to fix their scoring :/ but it's been like this since forever so i expect nothing to change^^

He played quite a few matches as lb/rb during his career and that was something talked about quite a lot during the last months. Apparently he talked to Tuchel about that and it was clear that he will be played as a midfielder. Now with all the injuries/lack of match fitness on that position he had to do it and most fans will inteprete his performance as being pissed instead of having a bad day or playing out of position and bad as a result.

I knew he was doing it at Leverkusen for some games but was he really that good on that position? The games i cought were decent but nothing mindblowing. Maybe it was just a bad day but i hope Pisczec is back soon so there won't be any discussion

Edit: Obviously i dont think he was playing bad on purpose, i dont think he would do that + it would ruin all his chances to play again

Lol. Quite some upsets there.

Southampton. WTF.
Atleti wallops Barça and then loses to Zilina (not a bad team by any account, but come on...)
Rubin Kazan 1-1 vs. whoever the fuck that team is...
Liege losing to Molde (even if it's away game)
RB Salzburg losing
