Jonas Omlin Returns to the Bundesliga After Injury
Jonas Omlin, the goalkeeper for Borussia Mönchengladbach, recently made a return to the Bundesliga in a 2-2 draw against Werder Bremen. Omlin had been sidelined with an adductor injury after a game against Mainz that slowed him down for a few weeks.
Speaking about his return, Omlin said, I recently missed a few games and used this time to heal my injuries well. I was really looking forward to the game and I really missed playing in this stadium – it’s a great honor for me.
Despite his excitement over the return, Omlin wasn’t really happy after the game. He said, The result is disappointing. It was very unfortunate for us because we deserved three points. We created great chances to score, but didn’t take them.”
Omlin continued, “I think we could have scored four or five goals and that would have won the game earlier. Unfortunately, we made a lot of careless mistakes – both front and back.”
The Swiss goalkeeper also didn’t play flawlessly on his comeback – especially before Werder conceded the first goal. Omlin confirms, “We didn’t defend the two goals we conceded well, they’re allowed we can’t get it like that. We just have to defend more consistently. I slipped away with the first goal, but when it was 2-2, I had to move better too. Now we have to keep working hard.”
Looking ahead, Omlin recognizes that the next game after the international break against 1. FC Köln is the most important Gladbach game of the rest of the season! Especially for the Foal fans.
“The disappointment about the draw is very big. Despite this, the fans were absolutely behind us after the final whistle. I think they are already looking forward to the derby in Cologne. We as a team have to have the necessary bite and definitely want to get the three points there. That is important for the club, important for the fans and also enormously important for us. I really want to celebrate the first derby win with Gladbach.”
With Omlin back in action and determined to succeed, the Foals are sure to bring their best game to the pitch.
