Das Manchester-Derby zwischen United und City gilt als eines der bedeutendsten Spiele der Welt, die Rivalität zwischen den Klubs ist riesig. In dieser Saison ging es um besonders viel, beide Teams stecken in der Krise, brauchten einen Befreiungsschlag.
Und heraus kam: so gut wie nichts …
Nach einem weitestgehend blutleeren Auftritt beider Mannschaften endete das Spiel mit ganz wenigen Höhepunkten folgerichtig mit 0:0. Hilft weder City im Kampf um die Champions-League-Quali noch United im Kampf um – ja, was eigentlich? Das Team von Ruben Amorim ist 13., nach oben und unten geht nichts mehr. Da wäre ein Derby-Sieg eine schöne Gelegenheit gewesen, um Kredit bei den Fans zurückzugewinnen.
Pool-Video statt Länderspiel: Hier plantscht Alisha Lehmann ihren Frust weg
Entsprechend angefressen waren die TV-Experten, die beiden United-Legenden Gary Neville und Roy Keane. Neville haderte mit dem Einsatz beider Teams, sagte: „Es ist das Manchester-Derby. Es war ein bisschen wie ein Freundschaftsspiel. Es ist, als ob wir im Fußball an einem Punkt angelangt sind, an dem sich die Mannschaften zu Tode fürchten, den Ball abzugeben. Jeder ist so besessen von seinem System, dass in vielen Spielen überhaupt nichts mehr passiert. Das muss aufhören!“
Neville weiter: „Das Aufregende und Schöne an der Premier League ist der Druck, die Energie und die Spannung, und das war hier ein bisschen anders. Die ersten 45 Minuten waren eine einzige Katastrophe. Das ist von beiden Mannschaften nicht gut genug.“
[–>Keane meinte: „Ich schaue mir die beiden Mannschaften an und denke, dass sie offensichtlich nur den Ballbesitz dominieren wollen. (…) Es war ein Derby, und im Stadion ist keine Energie zu spüren. Die Spieler müssen etwas leisten. Ich kann das nicht glauben – das ist ein Freundschaftsderby.“
Und weiter: „Ich habe vor Jahren gegen City gespielt, als sie noch keine große Mannschaft waren, aber sie haben sich ins Zeug gelegt und ein Derby daraus gemacht. Heute hat es einfach nicht mehr diese Brisanz.“
