statement
Matthias Jaissle on …
… the starting position before the duel with the Carinthians:
“Of course the defeat in Lille hurt, there’s no question about that. But we analyzed the game and hopefully ticked it off. So far, the team has always managed to flip the switch again. The Klagenfurt team have had a very strong and stable season so far. Of the last ten competitive games you have lost only one, at home you are still unbeaten. We also know what was expected of us. “
… possible changes in the starting grid:
“Now we have to see how the boys have put up with the burden in order to then decide which team we will play with in Klagenfurt.”
Brenden Aaronson on …
… the game in Klagenfurt:
“Klagenfurt does it really well and plays a very strong role as a newcomer. Especially at home they are very difficult to beat. We mustn’t believe that we can get over it that easily. We need a lot more full concentration on this game and that we implement our match plan exactly. “
… the leap from the UEFA Champions League in the ADMIRAL Bundesliga:
“Of course it’s not that easy, but ultimately not new to us. The Champions League game against Lille is already in the past, the game against Klagenfurt is the present. “
