statement
Christoph Freund about…
… the 21 rounds played in the championship:
“The season so far has been very impressive for me. It worked well from the start and we’re playing very attractive football. We have a great structure in the team, concede few goals and are therefore in a really good position. We’ve never had more points after 21 laps (note: 51) and it’s really fun to watch the guys at work every day. But we’re only in the middle of the season and still have one game left in the regular season. It is important to keep your concentration high and to continue to act like this.”
… the quarter-finals for the UEFA Youth League team:
“Once again, congratulations to the entire team and everyone involved. This success means a lot to us. We’ve been among the best U19 teams in Europe on a regular basis over the past few years, so that’s an outstanding story for us. Yesterday’s success involved a lot of players, some of whom have been with us since the U7s and were trained in Salzburg. It is an important factor for the future that there are great guys coming up again.”
Matthias Jaissle on…
… the last game in the regular season:
“Of course we want to win this game in our own arena, that’s at the top of our priority list. We will use the coming days to gather our strength again as quickly as possible after yesterday’s intense party. One or the other who was recently ill will return to the starting XI. And so we want to bring our kind of football back onto the pitch and get the three points.”
… the cancellation of the last week of training due to the positive corona tests and the consequences:
“The last week was very special for us and brought with it great challenges. In order to bring the players back to a correspondingly high level, we have to approach the whole thing very individually. The illness affected every single player. And there are many different parameters involved. So we look at relevant statistics, such as running values, see what the medical department approves and communicate a lot directly with the players. In the next few days, we want to get everyone up to the optimum performance level and work to ensure that we have a powerful team together again on Saturday.”
