After the disastrous start to the new Bundesliga season, Borussia Mönchengladbach seems to have finally recovered in the last league games, thanks in part to the new head coach Eugen Polanski.

Gladbach's regular goalkeeper Moritz Nicolas, who already displaced the regular starting keeper Jonas Omlin from the goal last season, revealed in an interview that he experienced one of the worst moments in his professional career during this horror start for Gladbach.

Specifically, Nicolas refers to the 4-6 thrashing by Borussia against Eintracht Frankfurt. In front of the home fans, they were already down 0-6 by halftime at the end of September.

“It was an absolute nightmare. You're on the field, trying to pull together as a team – and somehow nothing works. It feels like you're in the wrong movie. Bremen was already a very tough game – but the first half against Frankfurt was extreme. The 0-6 after 47 minutes was the worst game progression I've experienced on the football field so far,” the goalkeeper reveals in an interview with 'Bild'.

At least, after this thrashing, Borussia seemed to have recovered. Gladbach has since left the relegation zone and is currently in 12th place in the standings.
