well terms of the bridges leading here on d.w.i. make mechanic look we've got more madness from match day sixteen with these two massive clashes coming up in the show. i mean its fans were hoping for three early christmas points from the word the bulls giving mood. and there were red hot emotions on the show a shocker marks the end of an era and try to open a new one on the label equally desperate for a change in fortune. now off to tuesday so do some top takedown dortmund were hoping for more surprises in wednesday's games to go through all of wednesday's action i have with me you are striking victoria of course work for us here sports welcome to the show dinner thank you great to have you here and i've got one question before you get started what were you looking forward to most ahead of wednesday's matches and actually i was looking forward to and after dortmund last i was especially looking forward to because you know i've been talking about this all season and they have indeed that's why we want to start with bind as well they headed into their match knowing that they could cut the gap to six points but their opponents on wednesday were leipzig who were just behind them in the table and eager to keep up the chase themselves. both coaches knew this was a chance for their teams to pull back some ground at the top of the table by and enjoyed the best of the opening exchanges and they were a whisker away from going in front of break through the first half of it live in just before a free by session gnabry gets a night by the post takes you to lash in the light c. go with an all important touch. up the other end like sick had their own encounter with the woodwork macondo headed against the crossbar to be maximals to the ball but unfortunately for the businesses without rewards. the tight stress topham not much for these fans to discuss during the break she's fingertips helping to keep things level and he was busy again in the second half thomas miller played the ball and he's eventually found its way to your sewer kimmage. flashy see reflexes catch a mouse. the hosts were ramping up the pressure it was only so much you actually could stop him he's only talking right now to sanchez but not from pretoria. i. suppose touches by the french wing of one's control want to take it past his man and wants to finish with seven minutes to go joy unconfined in munich. match ended in ugly scenes stefano sanker was given a straight match for this foul. sanchez also given his marching orders for his role in the ensuing medway. to finish one nail advice or three points for by and. by left incredibly late in that match did fine deserve the three points well as a footballer i always look at it in this way i don't care if i deserve this your points or not as long as i got three points and i think all that by and. one is going to be happy that they got three points of course i mean in life that did have their chances but i think i had more chances so yeah they deserved it and i'm thinking to have it they got it. especially important is that now that the big close to dortmund we mentioned. he's had a bit of a bumpy start to his life a by munich as a footballer yourself do you think that this win today was his doing or have the players finally taking responsibility well i never think that it's the fault solely of the coach or solely of the players and a lot of criticism was put on call back to the beginning of season throughout the season it's difficult being barn coach we know that but i don't think that everything was his fall and i don't think that you know he should be held responsible for everything i think the players were underperforming and now everything's just going to click this is his first season as a coach there were going to be ups and downs older players injuries all that happens but what's important is that right now they look like they're clicking they've got important three points today dortmund drop three points i think there had to know where they are. they've played lucky today as we know and. have been the ones they can have the season they've never scored a goal in munich they've never had a points in munich do you think they'll be disappointed after today's match coming so close yeah i think definitely i mean you saw the red card you could see the disappointment because you know they hit the wood where they did come pretty close to the eighty third minute the goal was scored right so yeah they're going to be extra disappointed but i think you know like i said the three points went to the team who deserved it you mentioned before i mean talking about behind you said they've got some older players i mean leipzig could have attacked some of those other players frankly very happens in school today why is it the leipzig so far haven't been able to make it through by the defense and find a chink in the armor of this. second be. a lot of things i mean the goal today that everybody scored that was a pretty big error on the defender's part he literally cleared it right on his foot so. i mean if that didn't have been a good set of thousand mistake that didn't happen at zero zero and i think you can be happy walking away with a point there so if i don't think that big. and that case we're going to move on from life say to the other game that we have today the region around has not only an impressive history of football but also pride proud history of mining for two hundred years the pits were the heart and soul of the region at the end of this year the very last coal mine in the area will close and shaka pay tribute to their heritage on wednesday evening. while at the stadium of the coal miners anthem ahead of the team's final home match of twenty a team of all the tribes in the valley shall have some of the strongest tight ties to mining the players the fans and the miners groups united to mark the end of an era. of course wasn't the only thing happening girls in cation on wednesday leverkusen were in town in what was to be a hotly contested match. your fans regularly produce displays that would do the miners who founded the club proud so far this season the same can hardly be said of the players. at the start of this one they looked as sloppy as ever the defense failed to deal with this early free kick and the ball eventually landed back at the on by the st the hosts were saved by the post but slow to react and alexander drug abuse from the rebound straight through out famines legs. and minutes later. made it to new classy control from the argentinian to deal with each but fair man once again less than his best. through blues pulled one back when western mckinney's head was knocked into the net by had the right to twenty year olds first ever been disney could go came right on. the stroke of half time. but a scrappy second half brought nothing new substitute. charms but they've accused of off the hook with this staggering mess from just ten metres out. so dominica to disclose was continue to one hundred defeats and a frustrating and to shelters emotional evening. big big disappointment after the fans in the arena another defeat for the last bonus be legal when came in the beginning of november in the space of half a season mean second at the end of last in this league season now they're in the second off the table dominic is gone from hearts to absolutely not why do you think that it's ok well i think this is a pretty big discussion but last year he was a new coach so i think you could say that his results from last season were a little bit of overachievement say ok so he's not the most experienced in the blue sea and yes although we know that he was very good in the coaching courses is a top of his class but there's no substitute for experience and i think this year it's not all his fault because they've had injuries players aren't performing it's kind of like the perfect storm of a lot of bad things happening that's just giving schalke a hard time i mean so far he said ok we don't want to talk about relegation we need to keep our heads in the right place and think about the next game one of the time but i think as a shock a fan maybe the board as well you can't help but think ok we're kind of closer allegation do we want to risk it and keep him there or do we want to maybe bring someone else in and save us because hard do you think was the big problem for the shock of them does the fact that they're playing in the champions league mean that's an extra six games they've had so far this season the other clubs i mean how does that huge factor for the club the champions league and going to sega three competitions the. it's very difficult i mean not a lot of teams in the world have the depth to play three competitions and do well ok they did advance the champions league so that's that's a plus for them then the poke out i think obviously they are starting to feel that struggle that where in tear on the players i mean you see we see an injury so that definitely has an effect on every team usa the shock interest rate occasionally on doing so well this season either they're in the bottom of the table but are they safe do you think. they're not safe but i am somebody who looks like the glass half full so they're not out of europe either i think if i will ever coups and right now i'm thinking ok so we qualified for euro you know we've won we've only lost one of our last five games we're in a pretty good place what my focus is going to be on is you know going into the break when. coming into january with the mentality of we're going to make europe this league this season and i think there's a lot of teams underneath them that have bigger worries like you know shall go for example so i don't think that leverages should be looking at relegation i think they should be looking ahead and looking for europe in that case thanks for that we're going to look at results from state sixty five of course the grounds of that late win against life's if they've got an all important when you know days matches braman home to hoffenheim frankfurt and also share the spoils the dobie and all square after four goals in minds on tuesday we sorts dusseldorf with our arguably the shock of the season against dortmund be numbered all spoke so of gods and berlin a true home with
