The 1st FC Nuremberg and the problem with top teams

The zero stops: After the narrow defeat against St. Pauli is Nuremberg's balance against the top clubs zero victories, three draws and two defeats. The duel with Schalke is still out. In addition, the club on Sunday had to accept the fourth defeat in the last five competitive games. At the same time, the Nuremberg against St. Pauli had shown an appealing performance, despite a 0-2 after ten minutes, had been at the end and turned on turning the game.

Cleaning can be clarified that the FAN against the KietzManuel Schäffler good, temporarily strong, in the sum but was not good enough on the road, without now a big questioning. It lay on little things, says Club coach Robert Klaus aptly. Even the scorers Johannes Gas ( There are still no small things missing ) and Manuel Shaffer ( Today we did not do some little things well ) Share this assessment.

1: 3 instead of 2: 2, because the offensive negligently acts and the defensive weakened

Of course, according to the coach, this does not change the fact that all brutally disappointed are — especially with a view of the phases before and after the break. Klaus speaks in his analysis of angry attacks, with which his team had rung after the conceivable bad start (0: 2 after ten minutes). However, only a strong spacer shot from Gas found the way to the gate (21.). At the beginning of the second pass, the Nuremberg was equal to two huge opportunities. Especially after the side change, the club then covered the defensive weaknesses of the hamburgers with force and vehemence relatively, the compensation was in the air.

That instead, St. Pauli from the Nothing could restore the two-goal distance was because of a throw of a throw away, although avoidable, but not just bad luck. The most recently so strong defensive weakened in the crucial scenes, sometimes the distance was too big, sometimes the two-fight guide was not determined enough — and sometimes was the case. Christian Athenian made sure that in the face of nine chances against his team only three goals sat.

Shaffer gate only hope for hope

With his header to the 2: 3 in the 72nd minute, Shaffer had once again grained hope. We hoped for the Lucky Punch, says the striker who had not met for so long. But St. Pauli defended all attempts of the Nuremberg Clever in the final phase, so the club in the end again without victory against a top team. The next attempt dares the FAN on 10th December on Schalke. Previously, however, the game against the table clothed Holstein Kiel is on — next Saturday, back home.
