http://www.goal.com/en/news/15/germ...nded-as-gladbach-punish-dortmund?ICID=HP_BN_1 Looks like @SirManchester was right in predicting Klopp's after match comments.
@bvbSlash: No handball penalty given was the right decision, there is not a single match report that said otherwise. First situation was against arm but the arm was directly at the body and the shot from short distance. Never ever a penalty. The second was half upper body, half shoulder, no hand whatsoever. Also they all agree that ter Stegen was fouled in his box. Stop looking like a sore loser.
Not sure if directed at me, Bvbslash or all of us in general. We're down 2-0, or 2-1 the game is intense, I get passionate and emotional during games this game was no exception, and I post here on the Borussia Dortmund boards which is primarily for our fans, not Monchengladbach fans, the fans here know me, I feel I can comfortably post my opinions without giving a f*ck what other fans think of me. Watching from a choppy stream, to me it looked like a penalty and goal at the moment, so I commented. I didn't agree with the ref, I don't often do, even if its against our team, I call handballs, cards or penalties not given. Was it or was it not, I don't know I haven't had the chance to review it yet, I've cooled off from watching the match so I won't disagree with you. Naturally I'm disappointed, angry and other "negative" feelings at the result, but I accept it. It's a difficult call to make, I'm biased towards my team, so I'm in no position to say that the ref was wrong, but I felt it was at least questionable, not a definite correct call but not definitely wrong either, I could see why he wouldn't call it either. Now you are generalizing, or exaggerating when you say all match reports saying other wise *EDIT* Well not sure if you edited BVBslash's name into it, or I simply missed it when I read your comment. Now I look stupid replying someone who wasn't directing their statement at me .
Which match report are you referring to? The handball was clear as day. Daems had a good match but when you move your hands towards the ball, that's a handball. How can Ter Stegen be fouled when he knocked Lewandowski from behind? It's like you watched another match in another universe. Of course I'm going to be a sore loser. WTF did you expect? You guys fully deserved your 2 goals but we deserved 2 more of our own. At the very least we should have got a point out of this game.
If we aren't getting beaten by the referees or our medical team, we are beating ourselves. I think the BuLi still has a lot of interesting matchups. Of course I'd like nothing better than for us to beat Schalke and especially Bayern in the remaining matchdays. In the CL I am curious to know how we perform in the QF regardless of who we get. Nothing would be sweeter than a spot in the SF this season. All I'm saying is enjoy the season. I know it got sucked into a vortex once the injuries started piling on but there's still some excitement to be had. And in the summer we have a new striker to look forward to. Miki might contemplate moving to Liverpool yet. The next season can wait.
To be honest, Gladbach deserved a point for sure. The way they kept the ball was fantastic. Their passing was superb. Their attacks were well calculated and brilliantly planned. We did have enough space in the midfield, but did not do enough to create opportunities out of it. Gundogan would have won this game for us. For me, the only positive out of this game was Jojic. He was confident on the ball and was technically pretty good.
