The Black Yellows' manager feels that he should take the responsibility for his side’s beating at the Signal Iduna Park, as the Bundesliga outfit now trail league-toppers Bayern Munich by 12 points
Borussia Dortmund team trainer Jurgen Klopp has taken the blame for their 2-1 home defeat to fierce rivals Schalke in the domestic league. The 2011-12 Bundesliga champions faced a first league defeat at home for over a year in
the Ruhr derby against the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Blues.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robert-Lewandowski-c31255 scored a consolation goal to keep the team in the game. However, the Borussians’ boss stressed
that the loss is due to his tactical failures.
The defending champions and DFB-Pokal cup winners are now 12 points behind league toppers, Bayern Munich. Klopp insisted that they were not up to their best and would like to take the responsibility himself. He said that he could
not help the BVB return to winning ways in the league.
“We did not play well. I take this like [it is] my fault. I wanted to help with the upgrade of the team," he was quoted as saying in an interview.
The 45-year-old stated that his strategy did not work out and they should have a look at it.
"That honestly did not work so good, that one must [be looked] at," he mused.
Central defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mats-Hummels-c24767 was furious with the tactics of the visiting side and claimed that they were wasting time during the match. The stopper taunted Schalke and said they were displaying unsporting behaviour.
"I've never seen a team as sporting and fair as Schalke," the 23-year-old jested.
"From the 10th minute of the game they were [wasting] time and faking injuries. I hope that during the season, they are not further rewarded by the referees, but are punished," he finally concluded.
Hummels revealed that the Miners started disrupting the game since the 10th minutes and were feigning injuries. He maintained that this should not go unnoticed and they should be penalised for using unfair means in their
victory.
