For the second time within a few days, Hansa Rostock travels to Regensburg. And with a broad chest.
After recently winning the DFB Cup (4:2 in a penalty shootout), the Rostock side will be looking for more courage and longer periods of possession when they travel to Regensburg again.
After the Koggen club also defeated Fortuna Düsseldorf in the league with 2:1 following the round of 16, the self-confidence is high in the team of coach Jens Härtel. Even though the Jahn are still undefeated in front of their own crowd in league play (4/2/0). “Wins do every team good. We enjoy the current mood,” said the coach at the press conference ahead of the trip to the Oberpfalz.
The Hansa head coach will probably have to do without Julian Riedel (ankle). “Apart from the long-term injured, everyone else is on board,” reported Härtel.
Härtel: “It will be a brutally difficult task “
Härtel is also aware that Saturday’s game will not be a walk in the park: “We expect an opponent with a lot of anger in their belly, who want to make up for their cup defeat. Regensburg are not in second place for nothing. It will be a brutally difficult task. “
