Bundesliga Review: The Ruhr Teams Lit the League Up as Bayern continued to win this week
The Bundesliga recorded a massive away victory in its history books this week. However, Bayern wasn’t the team to go off on a goal-scoring rampage this time around.
When Köln scored the opener against Dortmund via Milivoje Novakovic, there was a slight doubt about Dortmund’s chances of winning the game. All those doubts were erased soon afterwards as Robert Lewandowski, Shinji Kagawa, Ivan Perisic, Lukasz Pizsczek and Ilkay Guendogan all scored to win 1-6. Monchengladbach failed to recover from the misery of a cup defeat on penalties. They succumbed to Hoffenheim in strange fashion. Gladbach led the match for 75 minutes after Marco Reus grabbed an early goal to give his side the lead. In the 77th and 79th minutes, Hoffenheim scored through Roberto Firmino and Boris Vukcevic to lead and eventually win the game.
What is to become of Hertha Berlin after yet another 'firing and hiring' this season?
When Markus Babel was given his marching orders in December, Michael Preetz hardly had any idea about the storm that was to follow.
Hertha Berlin, the champions of the second division in Germany, the 2.Bundesliga had settled quietly back into the Bundesliga. They were in mid-table and had produced some good results including a 1-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund, the defending champions. Babel’s ambitions however led his mind away from Berlin, a team he felt he had gotten the maximum out of.Thus, Babel refused to extend his contract and paid the price. Wait- Babel didn’t pay the price; rather, Berlin did. In other words, Michael Preetz suffered. He hired a good manager in Michael Skibbe. Yet, Skibbe wasn’t the one fitted for the situation. He is easily the worst manager in the history of the club. His record reads: five losses in five matches in charge.
Bundesliga Mid Season Review 2011-12
The Final Weekend of 2011 in the Bundesliga ended with plenty of drama as Markus Babbel was sacked as coach of Hertha Berlin.
Markus Babbel is an ambitious man. He spent long years as a player with Bayern and Liverpool and thus has a winning mentality. He perhaps saw Hertha as a club that was not going to move forward. As a result, he opted not to extend his contract and he said as much to Hertha’s general manager Michael Preetz. Preetz according to Babbel refused to be truthful to the media. Babbel was sacked this week. He will be replaced by Michael Skibbe. Hertha’s final result under Babbel was a 1-1 draw against Hoffenheim in Sinsheim. Hertha is seated not too securely in mid table. Babel’s former team meanwhile secured the Autumn Championship in Bavaria.
