One or two football fans rub their eyes when they look at the Champions League table for group B. Because there is no great Real Madrid and there is no top Inter club at the top. With eight points from four games, Gladbach leads the Hammer group.
And the starting position for coach Marco Rose’s team in the premier class is now very promising. “Now we have it in our hands,” Rose commented fittingly. With a blockbuster win against Inter Milan tonight (21:00), Gladbach would soon qualify for the round of 16. And that would be a historic success! On September 28, 1977, the Gladbachers qualified with a 1-1 draw against Vasas Budapest for the second round of the National Champions Cup. Since then, however, they have never again made it to the top 16 teams in the biggest European Cup competition.
One point might be enough …
But now the foals are confident. The main test has already been successful. Gladbach won 4-1 against Schalke on Saturday with Swiss Yann Sommer, Nico Elvedi (on the bench), Denis Zakaria, Breel Embolo and Michael Lang (on the bench). “We are happy with the victory, we drink a small beer and then we look to Tuesday”, is the final analysis of Oscar Wendt
In the first leg at the Giuseppe Meazza stadium, Gladbach scored 2-2 at the end of October. Incidentally, a point at home at Borussia Park would be enough today if Donetsk cannot win against Real Madrid at the same time. “We have created a starting position that allows us to create great success – for the club, for the fans,” Rose happily told Sky. “We have confidence in ourselves and we want to point it in the right direction for us.”
Nati defender Nico Elvedi is missing against the Milanese. The 24-year-old suffered a mild muscle injury. (mum)
