Scored 2 goals today in 1 minute in a 3-2 friendly vs Al- Jazira !? Scored now 3 goals in the last 2 friendlys I think. Not that bad =)
Great game by Haraguchi, opened the first goal with a nice pass and the second goal with a dribbling through 3 defenders and a deflected shoot. Almost assisted another goal,his cross were heading against the post from a Freiburg defender.
Assists a goal by Schieber. Edit: Through the two assists by Haraguchi Hertha won 2:0 in Ingolstadt and are second right behind Bayern for now.
Thank god it was Schieber and not Ibisevic, too many of those fine crosses were wasted by him last season.
Good start to the league season for him. He was one of the best players vs. Freiburg already and contributed two fine assists today. In Ibisevic, Schieber, Kalou and Darida for long distance shots Hertha have a number of excellent finishers, all of them far better at that job then Haraguchi. He should continue to focus on providing them as his own attempts at scoring are more often than not woeful.
Yes he was a sure starter last season and this season it looks the same. He is very very good at this season start ! Great first match against Freiburg like Cazlon was saying and again a very very good match against Ingolstadt with 2 assists, he should be MOM again. In the pre season, he was scoring some goals,now for Japan he step up his game and scored and played very well till now in the Bundesliga. Hope he can continue and score/assist more. He is very young and can be an important factor to the WC2018.
Hertha started the Buli season on fire and Genki has been sensational, leading Dardai to exclaim that he "was yet again the best player on the pitch" after Saturday's game. Local press is heaping positive coverage on him: Berliner Zeitung has a two-page feature on how he developed into a better-adjusted, more aggressive player, while Berliner Morgenpost credits his improved grasp of German and a fitness course taken at Tsukuba U over the summer.
http://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/h...-sich-selbst-ein-ultimatum-47844212.bild.html Interview with Genki. Dardai set a goal for him: 6 goals, 6 assists.
Too bad that he didn't set a goal of at least 6 Kicker's MoM. Don't know about goals but assists shouldn't be a problem as long as the whole team performs well like they did so far this season.
The goal was set by Haraguchi himself not Dardai. Genki said in this interview, if he doesn`t score 6 goals + 6 assists he has nothing to do in Bundesliga. And its for sure, that he reaches this goal when he continue like this,even against Bayern he was one of the best players. He has a great great season till now. He will score. Haraguchi is a beast.
sorry, just seen your post. He said that but doesn't Dardai hat Ihnen eine klare Vorgabe gemacht: sechs Tore, sechs Vorlagen. mean that Dardai set him this goal for him?
