Hertha BSC 4 - 0 1. FC Union Berlin
Olympic stadium derby without spectators, meh. It's the first time since antiquity, probably, that Hertha have won two in row, both something to nil. I don't usually believe in exchanging managers every few weeks, but this season was just so herthaed up they had to try something new. Old Hertha hand gets tired --> put in a totally unknown old Hertha hand who did the under-21s before --> throw him out in 15th place, install Jürgen Klinsmann, cuz..., well, Klinsmann --> get rid of Klinsmann, cuz..., well Klinsmann --> cling on to Klinsmann's asistant whose best reference was a 17-match non-winning streak with Bremen ---> finally, install an experienced coach, with moderate successes on his roster, who has a reputation of bringing structure and dependability to a team. And who is the fuck NOT an old Hertha hand. Because success, you see, is not in our genes. That has to be b(r)ought from outside.
34 points, six to go until the season is safe, from seven matches. I see a light.
It will be an all-wins weekend. Fürth aren't playing because their opposition, Dynamo Dresden, is quarantined due to Corona cases within the team/staff. These are the times.
