Alexander Blessin

I saw a team that lived. Despite the defeat, I feel positive about it. We have to take this path; it is rocky and uncomfortable. But I am absolutely sure that the results will come. Nevertheless, Blessin continues to believe in his team after the bitter 1:2 loss in the Rhine Derby against 1. FC Köln: You have to show character and stand firm. It was extremely important to me to position myself. And to document to the fans that the guys threw everything in despite the defeat. There is still a lot to do; we need to quickly fix some things: the structure against the ball, some unnecessary ball losses, more deep runs, and maybe a second touch. I am sure that the points will come as well. #Bundesliga #BorussiaMönchengladbach #AlexanderBlessin (translated)

Now one can say that I am a bad loser. But the goal should not count for me because it is a clear foul. If it is a normal block by Krauß, then I'm in. But he goes actively into Daiki, who cannot defend at all. Blessin at the press conference after the game: "Now one can say that I am a bad loser.
