On Wednesday evening, the FC St. Pauli will very quickly get the chance to shake off the 0:4 in the top match in Darmstadt Coach Timo Schultz does not see any danger of a fall
After only one point from the last two games with the defeat in Darmstadt, Schultz doesn’t want to know anything about gloom. After all, the Kiez are still in an excellent position, and can knock the Lilien back out of first place as early as Wednesday with a point in the catch-up game against SV Sandhausen.
“When you lose a game, there is direct talk of a danger of falling away. We don’t see that,” Schultz explained on Tuesday. The coach had already spoken after the game of a defeat that a sports psychologist would put in the “valuable “ category. Especially since his team “is so stable and consolidated this season that we don’t have to worry about anything sticking from this game. “
“Losing games is part of the game,” said Schultz. For the coach, the game against Sandhausen (“That will be a tough nut to crack”) comes just in time, then the Kiez “don’t have to think about Darmstadt all week”. Schultz found his team “too sluggish, they surprised us. We’ll blame ourselves and have to be awake against Sandhausen.”
Missing from the mission to make amends will be Jakov Medic, who had to come off at the break in Darmstadt. The centre-back suffered a broken nose and underwent surgery on Tuesday. “Everyone saw that Medic had a bang, he is not available to us.” James Lawrence could come on for Medic, as he did in Darmstadt, “a top man at the back,” Schultz insisted.
Schultz wants to “look” at Amenyido
“With Amenyido, we have to look because he played for a very long time after a long time.” Etienne Amenyido made his second appearance, first time in the starting eleven and 90 minutes on the pitch.
