The red lantern of the second division continues to hang in Magdeburg! New coach Petrik Sander (64) is undergoing his first dry season. Two games without goals, two without points.
The crux of the problem is at the bottom of the table 2nd league: The cutter is stuck! Alexander Ahl-Holmström has been playing below expectations for weeks, Maximilian Breunig is looking for consistency and Rayan Ghrieb is out of luck. The Frenchman had several good chances in the 0-1 defeat against Paderborn.
I know that too Captain Dominik Reimann (28): “We failed to score again. It wasn’t a bad game from us, but we can’t buy anything into it.”
Reimann doesn’t see any quality problems at FCM: “We have to work harder in training and develop the desire to finally score a goal. It has to happen as quickly as possible. There are opportunities against every opponent. It’s not due to a lack of quality.”
The fact that things have improved under the new coach should give the team confidence. Sander himself also said: “I will not shout about looking for a new striker. We want to work with the players and give them confidence.”
Now the players are asked to repay that trust with goals.
Reimann also rattled his team-mates: “We can’t cover it up under any circumstances. But we are no longer playing like bottom of the table. We want to continue on the current path. We have shown under the coaching team that we are capable of winning games. But for that we need more greed in front of goal.”
