loss deepens slide

By: Matthias | May 5th, 2009

1899’s collapse in the Rückrunde continued with a 4-0 loss to Wolfsburg. The loss deepens the clubs misfortune since the restart as they have drifted to ninth in the table with only a single win in 2009.

After holding Wolfsburg scoreless in the opening half the walls came crashing down as Edin Džeko opened the scoring at the sixty-sixth minute and then added two more goals within the next twelve minutes. Once on a roll the combination of Džeko,Zvjezdan Misimović and Grafite tore apart 1899’s defenders. To add to 1899’s woes, Andreas Beck was shown a red-card late via a penalty call that Grafite converted to make it 4-0. With little positive to mention, it is clear as 1899 enters its final four matches of the year with Köln on Saturday they need to shore up tactical play more in-line to present talent.

Quite possibly the most difficult situation is Ralf Rangnick’s ultimatum to walk out unless signficant investment is made in the off-season. While that might be the truth, using the media to lobby for investment with threats to leave the club is no way to turn a losing streak around in the final month of the season.
