Bundesliga – Kehl criticizes BVB’s start: “That just doesn’t work” – Sport

Berlin (dpa) – Sports director Sebastian Kehl from Borussia Dortmund has sharply criticized his team for the disappointing first half at 1. FC Union Berlin. “The way we concede goals, that shouldn’t happen to us.” We have to defend our goal better. We have to conduct our duels better. “The first half was just nothing,” said the 44-year-old after the 1:2 in the Bundesliga against the Berliners.

BVB was never able to build on the convincing performance from the 7-1 win in the Champions League against Celtic Glasgow. The sports director is particularly worried about the lack of concentration in the defensive. The black and yellow team have conceded eleven goals in the last four Bundesliga games alone. “That’s just way too much. “We have a lot of bad passes,” Kehl continued to criticize.

Kobel: “We’re going to bed late”

The sports director did not want to identify a main culprit for the next setback in the Bundesliga. The entire team is responsible. After all, there are enough national players in their own ranks on the field. “How we sometimes behave is simply not possible.” “Every player will know that for themselves,” said Kehl.

Goalkeeper Gregor Kobel was already in the interview zone looking for explanations for the drop in performance four days after the win against Glasgow. “We play every three days. We go to bed late, we travel a lot. You’re tired. “It’s difficult that you perform for 90 minutes every three days,” said the BVB goalkeeper. As a top team you still have to achieve good results.
