Oliver Glasner: I look at the right way

The 2017-- 18 DFB-Pokal was the 75th season of the annual German football mug competitors. Sixty-four groups joined the competition, including all teams from the previous year s Bundesliga and the 2. Bundesliga. The competitors started on 11 August 2017 with the initial of 6 rounds and ended on 19 May 2018 with the final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin, a nominally neutral location, which has organized the final since 1985. The DFB-Pokal is considered the second-most crucial club title in German football after the Bundesliga champion. The DFB-Pokal is run by the German Football Association (DFB). The safeguarding champions were Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund, after they beat Eintracht Frankfurt 2-- 1 in the previous final. Dortmund were knocked senseless of the competitors in the round of 16 by document champions Bayern Munich, losing 1-- 2. Eintracht Frankfurt defeated Bayern Munich 3-- 1 in the final to claim their 5th title. As winners, Eintracht Frankfurt automatically got approved for the team phase of the 2018-- 19 version of the UEFA Europa League. They also organized the 2018 version of the DFL-Supercup at the start of the 2018-19 period, when they encountered the champion of the 2017-- 18 Bundesliga, Bayern Munich.

5:14 Torchuses, 40 percent ball possession and only 43 percent recovered two-fighting: As a referee Felix Zwayer on Sunday evening the match between the VfL Wolfsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt put an end, the statistics of the 90 minutes spoke a fairly clear language.

Three days after the Europa League game against Fenerbahce, the team of coach Oliver Glasner could not hide the English Week. Against this background, Frankfurt s coach was satisfied with the appearance of his team. The point is deserved because we brought a very good performance fighting, found Glashner and underpinned his assessment with the running work that had performed his players in the VW Arena. The Eintracht route about 120 kilometers away, 6.5 more than Wolfsburg.

In some situations Frankfurt is lucky

The lack of use could not be damaged by the SGE. But also belonged to the truth: Glasner s team had lucky in some situations, for example with a slatted goal of Wout Wayhorst (16th) and a tight orientation decision, by the Weghorsets 2: 1 denied the recognition (90. + 3).

Both in the initial phase and in the second half Wolfsburg had enough scorchances to decide for themselves, nevertheless stressed Glasner: I look at the right track. Wherever this leads, is not yet foreseeable, but satisfactory is the start of the season. In the DFB Cup Frankfurt has failed to third division Waldhof Mannheim (0: 2) - and in the Bundesliga is not a single victory after five games.
