Gladbach against Wolfsburg: Borussia professionals in individual criticism
Moritz Nicolas: When he was needed, the 26-year-old was there. He is becoming more confident on the ball week by week and is helping the Fohlen defenders build their play. Blocks all Wolfsburg shots, once again solid as a rock! Grade 2
Joe Scally: In a very complex role – Scally intervened repeatedly to form a three-man chain – the American did an excellent job. He largely held back offensively, but worked well together with Honorat. Rating: 2.5
Nico Elvedi: He got an unnecessary yellow card in the first half and therefore had to be careful in the duels. Eight-goal striker Wind had difficulties against both Borussia central defenders. Rating: 2.5
Maximilian Wöber: Compared to Elvedi, Wöber tried to engage more often in game construction. The Austrian immediately showed why he was so important as he showed up fit at the last minute. Rating: 2.5
From 83′ Fabio Chiarodia: Wöber was able to cancel the match a day early, but Chiarodia brought a clean sheet to the finish line. No votes
Luca Netz: A very strong driver on the left side! Thanks to Seoane’s system he has always had freedom and has established himself in the offensive game in an unusual tandem with Koné. However, the 20-year-old still finds it difficult to make decisions in the opponent’s penalty area. The next performance improvement of the Under-21 national team player is on the rise. Rating: 1.5
Rocco Reitz: The 21-year-old takes another step forward from game to game! In these conditions he is irreplaceable in Gladbach’s starting eleven. The fans were mesmerized by the Borussia veteran and cheered him when he finished coolly to make it 2-0. Note 1
From 87′ Grant-Leon Ranos: The youngster received further Bundesliga minutes from Seoane in the final phase. No votes
Julian Weigl: It was an intense match for the Borussia defensive midfielder, especially when it came to playing against the ball. He had to face close calls several times and showed a noticeable improvement in performance compared to the Freiburg match, although this time he did not score a goal. Grade 2
Manu Kone: The Frenchman is finally back and shows why the best clubs have had him on their list for a long time. He could not be stopped while dribbling and was always the driving force in Borussia’s numerous waves of attacks. He deserved to crown his performance with a scoring point. Rating: 1.5
From the 77th minute Christoph Kramer: He warmed up intensely in the first half, but only came onto the pitch in the final phase. Solid performance from the veteran, but the game was already decided. No votes
Franck Honorat: After a forgettable performance in Freiburg, the 27-year-old showed that despite many ways to go backwards, he is an important component in Seoane’s attacking system. He remained stubborn several times in duels and was able to enjoy his first goal in front of the Curva Nord. Grade 2
Alassane reason: Borussia’s crucial point in their best game so far under Seoane! The 30-year-old was involved with his feet in numerous dangerous attacks and escaped Wolfsburg several times with clever movements. When he scored to make it 4-0, he once again demonstrated his finishing skills. Rating: 1.5
From the 83rd minute Nathan Ngoumou: The Frenchman was able to demonstrate his speed in two other scenes. No votes
Tomas Cvancara: After difficult weeks and numerous setbacks, fans especially appreciated the fact that the royal transfer threw himself into every duel. He achieved the desired sense of achievement in the first half, but Cvancara could have added a second goal. Grade 2
From the 77th minute Florian Neuhaus: I had a chance to show off again. He came in for goalscorer Cvancara. No votes
