"Haben uns nie aufgegeben" | S04-PK nach Dortmund | FC Schalke 04

Yes, welcome to the press conference after the home game against BVB. The final score was 2:2. I can always welcome the two coaches to the podium and, as always, the guests deserve the first word. Mr. Terzic, please comment on the game. Yes, we have a good night before the game. I already mentioned that there will be two ways we can approach this game, the first is the passionate and emotional way that the opponent is probably prepared for. They wanted to put everything into this and we knew we had to counter that, but then we know it's going to be close and the second way we wanted to approach the game was to want to bring our qualities and the football quality that we have to the field. field and that worked very well in the first half, yes, we had very good plays.

We showed football, we managed to create many clear scoring opportunities, we had control over the ball and a little over the opponent. a little bit of trouble being able to put pressure on each other again and again because we kept our distance very well and that's where we got one. We had some good songs that came up during the break and we didn't want to stop, but then we failed. for this to happen and then I opened the door for the opponent again and then the same thing happened in the second half of the football, which I mentioned first, where it became very emotionally wild and passionate and then, even though we were winning twice and we had to catch two counterattacks and Schalke played with a lot of passion in the end they became very open and we just didn't want to allow that and that's what disappointed us today because today we really showed a good performance and we deserved a victory and we didn't get it. "That and that's why we go home with a draw today and we have to get out of it and learn if we want to achieve higher goals.

It was an exciting match. I think it was nice for the spectators. It was very frustrating for us at the same time. final but we will learn from it and then we will do better as quickly as possible and then we will get three points again next week at the latest to drive thank you very much thank you very much Thomas your comment on the match please I hope my voice still works to a certain extent, so I can also say that after watching more than 90 minutes you already noticed that Dortmund was superior in terms of play and was superior in some aspects, but you still have the opportunity.

To participate, Salad would have had We had to take the lead, but maybe it would have been a little bit easier, in quotes, because I think we can all thank Fährmann, who kept us in the game time and time again. He deserved to take the lead, but I think my team, which He never gave up, he accepted the fight, he did what we really wanted. In the first part, the distances were too great for us. We don't press well, let the opponent play against the goalkeeper again instead of running and a little. Applying pressure earlier was more successful in the second half and in the end you are always happy when you score a point against a great opponent and we are very happy. take that with us or at least we will keep it here and we will have to see if we still have our feet on the ground and we know that we still have to get some points and we have another difficult game on the weekend. and I'm sticking with that.

It is seen that we have to fight for every point, but today it is always natural to be happy because it was a point that we have been fighting for, thank you, there are questions for the two coaches. That's good, yeah, so it was the shortest press conference ever. We thank you. Now the event for the Süddeutsche Zeitung would not have happened, so I wonder, in my opinion, the second half was much more open than "In the first half. They have to make the pitch there. Yes, Schalke no longer had this game under control to have allowed exactly what they needed, I think that's what I wanted to express in my statement.

Yes, I think we did very well. In the first half we kept the distances wide, we rotated again and again, especially in the center It was exactly what we had planned before the game, we wanted to have a physical presence in the last chain with the starting eleven. We wanted to have safe players in the center, we wanted to have fast flying players so that we could always go deep and that was the case. We worked well over and over again, as Thomas mentioned, with our goalkeepers to make sure that we could create an outnumbered situation so that we had enough time to get into position and then keep the distances large so that we didn't have them in this position.

We let a 1v1 situation arise and then we always had good offers in the deeper areas so that Raffael Hero had a very good run with a counter move, which is exactly what we wanted to do against a team that defended very man-centered. and that it didn't work in the second half. We were very static in the center, we didn't support each other as much as in the first half and then we opened the door for the opponent to open things up more and that's what we have to blame ourselves for today, so I, We just showed how you can do really well today, but we also showed how you can do really badly today and that's why we can't complain if you catch two counterattacks like that and then hit them.

There was still a big chance for the schallkapp, but in the end we still had a chance to go home with the win. We simply did not achieve it and that is why we have to learn to accelerate to capture even more and more consistent points. Patrick Berger For Sport1, it currently gives the impression that Bellingham is fine, maybe overplayed, a little out of shape, obviously the young player has had many great games so far, but do you share the impression a bit and how does he cope? The balancing act? Also to dose a little in the coming weeks, yes, jute has been praised very often this season, not only by us but also by you.

Jud is an extremely important player for us and if I had that impression, a subjunctive and then I wouldn't share it with you but with him? So I would discuss it with him, but we are open and honest with each other. Of course he played a lot and why because he is just good and also had a Today we had a lot of good scenes. However, today as a team we could not defend the goal in such a way that the opponent could not win the match and there were some situations today where we simply should have done better than as a team. group and that's why we don't think about it today We, as a team, didn't manage to close the bag and close the door to drive here today in the same way, so we will continue here at the front, yes, the Krampe without straightening up again Jude such Maybe for a very short time you have been holding a bandage on your knee for a few weeks.

Is there a problem? What maybe is hindered? And the second question that you talked about before this week in English is that it would be the most important week of the season so far now it's coming out of the Champions League unnecessary actually I think you can say and I've left a little bit of something here Today, what is the conclusion? Well, Tu has already played a lot with the blindfold, it just gives him stability, there's nothing crazy about him, he's just someone who plays very intense football and, of course, that leaves Traces behind, but that's how I think I played the whole game. the World Cup with this bandage, so that's not a problem at all for the second half.

I said it last week before the Leipzig game against the most important week we have had so far of the season and what we are talking about is that we are fighting to have even more important weeks and now of course there were two disappointing moments in the last two days, but the match was totally different like you said now, of course there was something somewhere. It is always unnecessary to be eliminated in the Champions League, but we already mentioned it after the game. We played against Chelsea and we deserved to be eliminated because the opponent in these two games was simply better in both comparisons and scored that goal.

They were better, it's annoying, especially how this goal came about. It's annoying, but it was deserved. Today I think we deserved more than a draw and, however, that is part of the game when you do not close the door on the opponent, but you always leave it open and then you let him come back with this energy and with this in this atmosphere then it is not It's surprising that you don't leave the field a winner, and yet we have to learn from it. You and we have been there more often in recent weeks. I asked questions and emphasized again and again that We still have many issues that we have to work on, that is one of those issues and that is why we remain humble and also remember the situation we were in before the World Cup and where were we.

Now we are much closer to our goals and it is frustrating, but now we have a streak, the winning streak has been interrupted, but we are still eight games unbeaten in the Bundesliga at 20-23 and we will continue to work on that and try to do that. It's even better, now there are a few more questions, so let's go back there yes, hello, thanks a question to Mr. Reichs after the four goalless draws he now had defensive stability and now three games followed in which Schalke scored, the offensive game also developed. Um, can you explain this development a little bit?

What are Schalke's offensive strengths and how do you want to continue developing this offensive game? Now you think that now we can also score goals and I said if you always put your foot. down, if you always believe in it, you will break some knot and then we managed to do it against Stuttgart and it was something more significant than the second talk in Stuttgart about the heel trick that I also said three weeks before, probably. "Well, I broke my ankles and that's sometimes hard to explain. We have moments and then some things work out. Yes, we were lucky in Bochum that he went ahead with his own goal, even though he wasn't so good in the game." today's game, yes.

Then you won certain things. No one came in, um, they got there before the first man. We tried to be present in the area again and again and then make the header because it was not so easy because the flag was not played so tight, so we had to apply a lot of pressure to achieve this touchdown and of course we kept trying to create goals or score goals, if they can see. I just said that Salat also had the opportunity in the giant where we can also take advantage of the rival's mistakes and yes we do.

We know that we definitely still need that, but we still have to be alert in defense because it is also important there, there are not so many goals. Now we have achieved it. do that three times with two goals, but if the defense is good then you always have the opportunity to score points and yes of course we want to continue training please hello, end of a frustrating evening and Mr. Reis, how do you do it ? you end such a successful evening from your point of view, so I know that the evening will last a long time because we are really very disappointed and it is very annoying to have left two points here today, but as a brush you get up the next morning, we will try to be honest with each other, we will approach the situation very self-critically and then try to do better, so tonight will not be pleasant, but we know that the next morning we will work even harder and "Then make sure that next Saturday, after the game against Cologne, the night will be nicer again.

Of course, the night will probably be a little shorter for me or a little more euphoric because we have to play against a very, very good team, umm, caught up twice and then , as a coach, of course you are happy if you can continue to build a certain series, which is incredibly important, but also because we will not be too euphoric because there is another game on Saturday, which is what we want We are still in a place where we do not want to be at the end of the song, so be humble, try it and try to score a lot of points so we can have derbies again in the coming years.

I'll take another look at Patrick Berger for Sport1 A question for Thomas asks Thomas what with the kids Karaman brought someone he doesn't know yet, we're thinking why you choose him of all people and maybe it's Him. We don't see every training session. Someone who tries really hard and where everything just works out, but maybe not exactly in the game, that was the reason I made a different decision today, you can't just meet the guys, so You can't really blame them. The boys do that less in training, there is actually a good atmosphere in training and a good intensity and yes, I had the feeling that we wanted to make another change and try to score another goal.

We want to make offensive changes and bring in new players and of course it's good when a substitution like that works but he deserves it and um yeah we didn't get a point because of him and I'm happy for him because we really invested a lot . a lot, but we have also seen it very critically here and said that we have to be a community that is more, that will always have phases or one or two maybe there is a hole in it, we can also remember a photo we took. Not playing in the hole, but that is what we have developed and we have to continue on this path.

So now I can finally announce that we have three wins in the betting gameVeltins, which our colleagues Erder Schwenneker and Rutemann have The prizes can be picked up at the press office. Thank you so much. We wish you all a pleasant afternoon and a safe journey home.
