This away threesome leaves the manager of Borussia Mönchengladbach speechless.
The spell is broken! After 1009 days, Borussia Mönchengladbach achieved their long-awaited second Bundesliga victory in a row within one season! The Foals won 2-1 against TSG Hoffenheim.
Gladbach fans celebrate their sports boss for his passion
Gladbach fans had to wait a long time for their club to celebrate two consecutive victories in one season in the Bundesliga. For a long time it seemed like a curse, which was now broken at the 25th attempt against TSG Hoffenheim.
But this threesome was fought particularly hard by the foals. Especially in the second half, coach Gerardo Seoane's team (46) delivered a defensive battle that left the fans breathless until the final whistle.
But it wasn't just the fans who seemed to have really suffered. Sports boss Roland Virkus (58) also seemed affected by the exciting final phase – even to the point that he was completely speechless.
Immediately after the final whistle, Virkus answered questions from a Sky reporter in an interview, seemed distraught and also no longer had a voice. Online, fans celebrate their manager for his passion, which may have contributed to the hoarseness.
On “X” (formerly Twitter) a user writes: “Roland Virkus’ voice is the highlight of the year. I can’t do it anymore.” Other users chime in with amusement. “Virkus is completely at the end,” says another user with amusement. And in another commenter, a user makes a reference to the foals' fighting performance: “Roland Virkus fought just as much as our team in the interview!”
Virkus made it clear with his TV appearance that this victory was a big deal. And also that, as a native of Mönchengladbach, he completely identifies with Borussia, just like the loyal foal followers. It's only understandable that the fans celebrate this.
