After the Cup noise Borussia Mönchengladbach in the league. The growing demands of coach Adi Hütter did not meet the compulsory victory against Bochum but not.

When looking at the table Jonas Hofmann had to smile shortly. Yes, the national player of Borussia Mönchengladbach admitted, it was important that we stand in front of them.

Hofmann meant the 1st FC Cologne, because with the 2: 1 (2: 0) liable victory against the research promoted VfL Bochum, the Gladbacher passed by archrivals.

The claims on the Lower Rhine are others. At least since the rushing cup night with the gala against FC Bayern (5: 0) you know what the team of coach Adi Hütter is capable of.

The three points were therefore not only important to overtake Cologne, but so we do not lose the connection to the international places, said Hofmann.

Gladbach only three meters behind the Champions League

Despite the extremely modest start start, the foals have only three counter behind the coveted Champions League Square. We are well on the way and can be partly satisfied, was Hütters conclusion after the tenth matchday. However, the coach also announced to internally discussed some things.

After all, after a strong first half with the gates of Alassane Pléa (12th) and Hofmann (40th), the Gladbacher was much quieter in the second round.

The first half was outstanding. Maybe we had already had my head that we already have the three points safely, Hofmann said.

It was totally unnecessary that it became tight again

After the counterpoint by Danny Blum (86th), the late Gladbacher continued to tremble even the undefeated Gladbacher. In the detention time, goalkeeper Yann Sommer rescued the victory against Milos Pantovic. It was totally unnecessary that it was tight again. We have already given enough points, and today it would almost happen again, said national player Matthias Ginter at Dazn.

Gifts do not want to make the Gladbacher anymore – on the contrary. In addition to the qualification for the international business in the league, you also dream of cup victory. We have pronounced the goal that we want to Berlin, reported Hofmann. The secondary finals at the second division Hannover 96 is a feasible task.

Against the Lower Saxony, Borussia lost the Cupendiel in 1992 in penalties. Now the clear goal of moving on a lap, says Hofmann.

The last title brought the Gladbacher with the Cup victory in 1995. That this durse route ends, would be more beautiful than a table spot in front of Cologne.
