The VfB Stuttgart can prevent after the 0:6 in Augsburg, Germany, actually only still in the Relegation relegation in the second League. Sport Board of management Thomas Hitzlsperger announced on the evening of the dismissal of coach Markus Weinzierl. U19 Coach Nico Reluctantly takes on. the By Christof Kneer, Augsburg

Where to start you should? In the case of Rani Khedira, the former Stuttgart, the in the 11. Minute suddenly had so grotesque a lot of space, that he took advantage of this space is equal to time for a wonder goal? The Stuttgart goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler, seven minutes later, out of his gate in the direction of the center line running came to vaccinate his teammates, who had him brought just by failure to help, the 0:2? Timo Baumgartl, who sought just before half-time when a throw-in a player, but only the colleagues Kempf saw the demonstratively ran and then the colleagues Pavard, looked pointedly down? Or again, in Baumgartl, made shortly after the half, the Ball at the throw-in completely from the hands from slipping?

You can also start with Markus Weinzierl, the now former coach of this team, the slid with each new goal deeper and deeper into its seat, or in the case of the Stuttgart Fans who experienced the gates to 0:5 and 0:6 probably already in their Seats, and in which of their cars on the way home on the A8. Perhaps it is best if one begins with the display panel. There, Augsburg 6, Stuttgart 0.

What is not there: It was the second-highest defeat in the Stuttgart club's history, only narrowly beaten by a 1:7 against Borussia Dortmund in the season 1963/64. What is not there: It would have to be the highest defeat of the Stuttgart club's history. You may say, after a 0:6? Yes? Well, The Augsburg victory was down at the end of one to three goals to low.

Hitzlsperger just needs a ride home from a long cooling-off period

And what is not yet there: the Stuttgart coach Weinzierl will be the next VfB home game against Mönchengladbach, Stuttgart's coach. "The VfB separates from Markus Weinzierl" announced the club only hours after the debacle. "We have repeatedly emphasized that it was our clear desire to bring the season with Markus Weinzierl and coach a team to a successful conclusion", Hitzlsperger quote. "After the very disappointing game in Augsburg, we have come to the Conviction that we must assess the Situation, and that a clear cut is absolutely necessary in order to create the League's whereabouts." After the game, he said he wanted to "make it on the drive home, thoroughly thoughts, a few conversations and then let's see". The ride home was enough, apparently, as a cooling off period.

Nico Willingly, is currently with the U19 table leader will Take over now. He will conduct on Sunday morning from 10:30 a.m. the Training, the license, game team. "Nico Willig has done in the past few years in the Junior area of the VfB a very good job and has stated that it is immediately ready to help the club in this difficult Situation. He is, according to our Conviction in the position to quickly ensure new impulses and to create with the team to the Class whereabouts," said Hitzlsperger.

Markus Weinzierl had suspected it. He knew that he had "delivered today, no arguments," he said immediately after the game.

in fact, have been released in 56 years in the Bundesliga, many trainers already for far less, the performance was "embarrassing," said goalkeeper Zieler. He could apologize for this performance "only," said Weinzierl, who had, however, contributed with time is a whimsical installation to fail this Afternoon. The best and highest-scoring VfB-player, Daniel Didavi and Anastassios Donis, sat again on the bench, and the attacker Alexander Esswein played something Similar as a right defender.

The FC Augsburg has been rescued after this victory, by the way, as well as, now ten points ahead of VfB. You have to bring "the city of today to Laugh", wrote the new coach Martin Schmidt later in an appropriate Exuberance. His Augsburg had actually played perfectly this afternoon, pretty combinations they had instigated, and to the destination, also without the due to a severe tendon injury unusual scorer Alfred Finnbogason. But they had perfectly played against an opponent that was gone friendly out of the way. Rare Rani Khedira (11, it should.), Andre Hahn (18.), Philipp Max (29., 58.) and Marco Richter (53., 68.) so easy to be like, in a professional footballers operated soccer goal shooting game. The VfB to let all of this not only, he encouraged the Augsburg. You do not have the two fight"", because you haven't "wanted in the first place," said Weinzierl later and was pronounced right.

the question: Why?

On this type of tariff is not secured, the refusal to work had in fact suggests little. In the last Play of the VfB professionals had tormented herself and her audience, but only because you have so little Creative thought; the daily workload they had done, however, quite dutifully. "Inexplicably" called Zieler this sudden loss of decency and respectability, "that was today, last Chance on the direct relegation". But the truth is also: Due to the parallel defeat of 1 is Yes.FC Nürnberg, the VfB Stuttgart continue to table the sixteenth - and still has a Chance to save the Relegation.

the VfB about the Relegation in the League, and is in this Constitution difficult to imagine

It is this downright comforting scenario that is likely to have a direct influence on the club's policy: With a performance like the one in Augsburg, Stuttgart would survive a relegation game against a regional League table leader, and such a responsibility has done-confident-in-chief now had to do to be a responsible boss. Those who know Thomas Hitzlsperger, don't know that he likes redundancies, he likes continuity and constancy, but of course he has seen, what was not to be overlooked: that there is a team and a coach of life dramatically pass each other - and descends in this constellation, either directly or then in the play-off against Paderborn Union Berlin or the HSV to go down.

preferably, it would have been the people at the VfB, the club and coach would have saved together somehow and would then be gone like reasonable people apart. On Sunday morning, Hitzlsperger should have been in a football talk round to sit, but this appointment he has cancelled now, for safety's sake. The sports Board says it is "better to be in Stuttgart". He will look at the first Training under the new coach.
