Borussia Monchengladbach 'should have committed a foul against Awoniyi' - Hutter

The Nigeria international scored as his team collected their first win in the Bundesliga campaign

Borussia Monchengladbach coach Adi Hutter believes his team should have committed a professional foul to stop Taiwo Awoniyi from scoring in Union Berlin's 2-1 win on Sunday in the Bundesliga game at An der Alten Forsterei Stadium.

The hosts opened the scoring in the 22nd minute when Genki Haraguchi crossed the ball in the danger zone and Niko Giesselmann pounced on it, giving Yann Sommer in the visitors' goal no chance.

After being denied in the 34th minute, Awoniyi doubled the advantage seven minutes later.
