Cedrick Makiadi: Fortuna defended well


SC Freiburg midfielder Cedrick Makiadi believes his side could not have gotten more than a point against Düsseldorf.

He said: 'We played against a side who had not conceded a single goal all season and who are compact, sit deep and keep things tight, waiting for chances on the counter attack. It is tough to break down such a team because you can't just go out there trying to open them up - you have also got to make sure you don't invite them to counter and lose control of the game, because then you lose. You have got to find the right balance. We tried that, but Fortuna defended well. Therefore, we couldn't get more than a point, but that is okay; we can live with it.


'We could have had one or two more points. When I think back to the Leverkusen game (lost 2-0), we gave away the three points too lightly there. We have one win and a draw at home, though, and that is okay. We still have to improve our away form, though.'
