Very imprecise in the first period, Tobias Mohr somewhat adjusted the sights in the second. Not enough, however, to sufficiently weigh on the offensive game of the standard.
Standard lived a more delicate first period, before regaining control of the ball in second, against Dender. The Rouches opened the scoring, which was not enough to take the three points.
A match which, collectively, is very similar to the individual performance of Tobias Mohr, the German winger who arrived from Schalke 04 this summer. Very friendly and smiling from his first interview during the internship in Touquet, the 29 -year -old had shown interesting things in preparation. But facing the promoted of last season, he seems to have forced fate, in vain.
A first half to forget for Tobias Mohr, but a second more revealing act
Very voluntary, available, present vocally for his teammates, Tobias Mohr has tried many openings, many centers and balloons in depth. But none have reached its target. The biggest danger from his feet was his sudden shot in the 70th, forcing Verrips to the parade. He will clearly have to perfect his last pass.
“Our first period was far too complicated. We displayed a better face in the second half, which must give us confidence for the future. We concede a shitty goal (sic) and it is not good, but we have to go ahead,” he launched us after the meeting.
We concede a shit goal, but you have to go ahead “
A statement that sticks to the collective service, but also to that of Tobias Mohr, personally. In the second period, the German seemed less scattered, more precise and judicious, even if that was not enough to create a real danger.
Where some players, in front of the micro of journalists, can hide and turn around the pot, Mohr put his finger on a truth, both collective and personal: it was not good enough in the first half, but the second can serve as a basis for the future.
For its part, the left flank, quite experienced, will have to regain its ability to alternate between deep and control of the ball, in order to allow the block to go up or reversed the game. The German has qualities, but it will have to be more precise and, also, work its automatisms to really weigh on the offensive game of its new team.
