In Leipzig, Marcel Sabitzer was still one of the key players under Julian Nagelsmann. At FC Bayern, the Austrian is currently a long way away from that.
It was actually a top game for him, in such and in this position he has already made many top games in Leipzig.
“Sabi has not yet reached his performance limit,” said Nagelsmann, who was surprised by the mixed performance. “It was actually a top game for him, in such and in this position he has already made many top games in Leipzig, against a similar system at the opponent.” In the end, however, it was mainly “spaces that he could play in much better,” Nagelsmann complained.
His coach did not want to dwell on the scene before the 0:2, where he lost the ball far too easily to Andi Zeqiri. “In the end, it’s too striking for me to take this ball loss as the reason for conceding a goal,” Nagelsmann put himself in front of Sabitzer: “You can always lose a ball, but it’s simply about how we react to it. And we just don’t react to it in the right way. There’s a lot of crossing your fingers and hoping that the others still defend it. “
