Only a few minutes were missing last Tuesday for the big sensation. Until the 83rd minute led second division VfL Bochum at home in the Cup against the big favorites FC Bayern Munich 1-0. Only in the final meters of the record champion and defending champion could still turn the game. Despite the defeat, the Bochum can be more than proud of this performance and want to take as much of the cup swing in the league.
There is the home game against 1. FC Nuremberg on Monday evening. The Franks also appeared in the Cup during the week, but failed after penalties on third division 1. FC Kaiserslautern. Both clubs are not really progressing in the league: The VfL could celebrate only one victory this season and also the Franks have brought in the last seven games only a threesome.

Nuremberg their tip on a renewed point division.
Bochum:
VfL Bochum is currently only 16th in the league. On Tuesday in the cup, however, the men of Thomas Reis had planned to annoy the Bayern and thus regain some self-confidence. This plan was fully realized. The VfL performed courageously, passionately and briskly at home against the favorites. The quality of the record champion was met with great intensity and motivation by the hosts.
In addition, the home side were deep and made life difficult for Bayern with narrowed rooms. In the end, Bochum played as substitute despite the defeat. Coach Reis hopes that his men can now show the cup face in the league as well. Last season VfL suffered a bitter 1: 2 defeat in Kiel. It was the first bankruptcy under Coach Rice.
The club had tried from the Castroper road before the game with the swans, with an internal team pronunciation to find the way back on the road to success. Also the coaching team had tried in the same move to make the pros the importance of the game and to make them aware of the game. But these measures have not yet had any effect on the Kieler Förder.
Bochum acted weak fighter, was sleepy-headed in the defense and showed playful only piecemeal. Overall, the team is far behind its own expectations and hopes this season. Currently Bochum seems to be just a potential relegation candidate. 24 goals are the worst in the league. After all, on the offensive, it runs reasonably. 20 matches are currently outbid only by four teams.
On opponent’s place brought Bochum so far with a win, a draw and four bankruptcies four points. That makes 17th place in the away table. The home stat is particularly curious with five draws from five games and a goal difference of 13:13. On this balance, the weather could certainly in advance of the match Bochum vs.. Nuremberg with a prognosis on a continuation of this series ogle.
Cristian Gamboa also fails against Nuremberg. For him, as against Bayern, Stefano Celozzi move into the team. Silvere Ganvoula, so far the best Bochum scorer, is missing after his fifth yellow card blocked. Wintzheimer was supposed to storm for him.
Nuremberg:
The trip to the Palatinate to the third division Kaiserslautern, the Nuremberg had certainly imagined something different. Against deep-defending Kaiserslautern, the Franks had set their usual tactics from the start with plenty of control and a short passing game. On the defensive, however, the club was again shaky and could hardly show a structured build-up especially in the second round.
Only one minute before the end of the game, the FCN saved with the goal to 2: 2 at all in the extension. Finally, however, continued the FCK in the penalty lottery against the second division by. Curiously enough, full back Valentini had to guard the visitors’ goal here, as Nuremberg keeper Klandt injured a minute before the end of the game and the Franks had already exhausted their quota.
The cup match on the Betzenberg fits the previous season of the Franks. The club is currently only for gray Zweitligamittelmaß. In the table, the men of Coach Damir Canadi ranked only 14th with 14 points. At the relegation place three there are currently six points, the relegation zone is five points away.
On the defensive, the club conceded just too many goals. 19 goals are outbid in the second league only by four teams. On the offensive, the Franks leave too many opportunities and can not refill decisively, especially after guided tours. Nuremberg gambled a lead in the 1-1 draw at Regensburg last season for the fifth time this season. There was a draw four times after that, a match was even lost.
Overall, the FCN with 71 chances out sins of the 2nd Bundesliga, but the odds only stops at about 26 percent. So the clubberer could win in the league only one of the last seven games. The criticism of the coach is slowly getting louder. Sport Board Robert Palikuca strengthens his coach, however, continue to back.
