Kovac: Bayer said the morale of the team is low? Don t believe what he says, I saw progress today

In the 11th round of the Bundesliga last night, Dortmund drew 3-3 at home with Stuttgart. After the game, Dortmund coach Kovac, players Bayer and Emre Can were interviewed.

Dortmund conceded a goal in stoppage time of this game and was equalized by Stuttgart. This is the second consecutive round of Bundesliga that Dortmund has been tied by its opponents in stoppage time. Bayer, who scored a goal in this game, expressed disappointment after the game: "You took the lead in the 90th minute, but then you were equalized by your opponent in stoppage time. The morale in the team is very low now."

Dortmund captain Emre Can also said: "This kind of thing must not happen again. We led 2-0 in the first half, so we must win the game. I am responsible for Stuttgart's second goal. I made a complete misjudgment at the time. Overall, we conceded the ball too easily."

And coach Kovac said at the post-match press conference: "If you score a 3-2 lead at home, you will definitely be disappointed if we fail to do so. But we scored three goals and we are not a very good team. It can go well, but I have seen progress today."

Kovac then responded to Bayer's remarks after the game that the team's morale was low. "He said at the beginning of the season that we wanted to be the champion, and now he said that our morale is low... Haha, you don't always have to believe everything this young man says. Sometimes he may be too emotional and make a mistake. But Stuttgart also performed well in this game. "

In the end, Kovac said: "We hope to win at home in the Champions League game against Villarreal next Tuesday. We must make some adjustments to win the game better. This is what we hope, and we can stay at the top of the standings in the end."
