At the beginning of the month, Bochum brought in Rösler for the job of saving the club from the 2. Bundesliga relegation. During the first month, “our man” is still without a loss.
On Tuesday, Rösler’s Bochum led to a surprising and strong victory in the DFBN Pokal match against Augsburg. The Bundesliga club was supposed to surf through from the second round of the cup, but Rösler shocked the Augsburg supporters on their own home ground.

-We fought hard today (Tuesday). Our mentality was at its best, and then we simply played better football.

The boys showed great courage and it was against one of the best teams when it comes to pressing in the Bundesliga. It was impressive,” Rösler told Bochum’s website.
