    Good play early in the game. Made a nice flick to a teammate, got it back splitting the two defenders with his speed, did some dribbling to hold the ball, before sending a nice pass wide to a striker who sliced a shot.

    well as both a german and american player he's used to this kind of gymnastics.

    In the midfield, where he belongs, except in Berti's mind, where all the best players must be fullbacks... just like him.

    Raffael did a great job dribbling past players and then drawing a penalty with a very smart dive, but his penalty was right at Hart.

    I hate how he is being deployed today. Almost useless.

    I think he just cut in and took a shot that sailed way over the goal.

    Thanks. Spanish ESPN3 commentator yelled "JOHNSON!!" so I assumed it was him. Maybe he made the pass?

    Damn Hart is having a good game. Denies Raffael again

    Raffael blasted a bad angle shot right at Hart with Fabian wide open at the far post, but I don't think he saw him and it would've been difficult to get it across to him.

    The referee is having a shocker. Made a bad call on the penalty, so he decided to call an actual penalty a dive as a make up call.

    Total make up call.

    Was it Fab who just made the almost assist to Hermann? Is so, what a beautiful run and dish. Why is he not our 10?

    Looked lively early, but relatively quiet half for Fab. Overall Gladbach have looked the far better of the two teams but a terrific half for Hart has kept it level. Gladbach really need to find a way to get 3 points if they have any prayer at advancing

    Watching Fab today is giving me flashbacks of watching Bradley at Roma. Whenever you see him in the frame the ball is going over his head. The play seems to be missing him and when his is in frame he is trotting at a slow pace.

    Agreed, this is their best chance IMO to set themselves up for a good shot to qualify.
