The end of this football afternoon was approached, when the spectators were torn from their lethargy again. In fact, this man ran with the vokuuba- (briefly at the front, bottom of the beard) hairstyle to the sidelines, in order to be substituted shortly afterwards. Many of the 33,000 spectators were looking forward to him-some with every minute that had previously been left, one piece more: Jan-Niklas Best, just hired by Benfica Lisbon, therefore entered the field under benevolent applause and had in the remaining nine Minutes still time for three actions, a somewhat failed and two, in which he showed why he was fetched. One with its technology, game intelligence and dynamics would probably do well every Bundesliga team, the Freiburg is certain.
It was a very tough 1-0 that the sports club showed its fans on Saturday. Gahnend boring in the first, a little better in the second round, always shaped by cross and back passes. The fact that even the game -friendly goal scorer Vincenzo Grifo (30th) took part suggested the suspicion that was confirmed after the game: that this pragmatic, result -oriented approach of coach Julian Schuster was exactly like that. After all, after two high defeats with four goals each against Frankfurt and Stuttgart, it had to be collected not only to collect points, but ideally to stay without conceding goals. Against Heidenheim, whom not only the best said in summer, but also Eren Dinkci (also Freiburg) and Tim small service, a hesitant playing style with a lot of ball was sufficient – just like in the previous week, when a minimalist 1-0 was to be booked.
It is not what the SC is currently playing entertaining or even nice to look at, but effective: Freiburg is in sixth place, has taken 33 points from 21 games and has just performed the next learning success under Schuster: 36 Make Freiburg has received so far, that is (Together with Dortmund) The second most among the first 14 teams, but no more have been added in the past two games. Heidenheim’s coach Frank Schmidt rightly spoke of a Freiburg “work victory” and shaped the beautiful word “work defeat” for his own team. The struggle and attitude would have voted – the basis for relegation: “For us it is no longer about potential. We have to hold the league, we have to score. “
The sports club never had such existential pressure this season. It will probably end with a decent placement. And it cannot be ruled out that the current phase is only an intermediate step on the way to a football that brings more atmosphere into the most recently cooled Freiburg stadium. Since he took over Christian Streich’s job, Schuster has made many small changes to the playing style. You basically attack a little earlier and are much more careful about owning your ball, a strictly rational football with a lot of litter and tactical discipline.
Grifo always shows his skills – but also back passes over 40 meters
“The main focus was on the defensive after the many goals,” said defender Philipp Lienhart. “We wanted to gain stability.” Esprit, pace and joy of playing, i.e. elements, for which people buy an admission ticket, often fall by the wayside. On Saturday, too, it really hurt how the Formidable Ritsu Doan alone remained on the right wing with his ideas, while Grifo showed his skills again and again – but also back passes over 40 meters. The headquarters remained a creative vacuum until the substitution of Merlin Röhl, and neither Lucas Höler nor the substitute Junior Adamu convinced in the storm tip. One of the few successful combinations of the whole game used Grifo to the goal of the day, Doan had hit an exceptionally good flank after a double pass. From this scene, the spectators drove up to the 70th minute. Then Doan hit the crossbar with a pour. If it would have been necessary to prove that the best obligation was a good idea – the 82 minutes until it would be substituted.
Tactically disciplined, the Freiburger also behaved after the game. Above all, Grifo and captain Christian Günter, in the positions of which the best typical position would have to be used – the position in front of the defense network is more intended for him. Grifo, who had already joked in the past few days that he always had boxing gloves in the trunk, was full of praise about the competitor, who was a “very, very pleasant person and a good player”. As the latter, he should be in the starting eleven at FC St. Pauli on Saturday. And nobody has yet announced that another good footballer has to give way to him.
