After his strong appearance in the cup, TuS Geretsried is playing another preparatory game at TSV Murnau. Kai Fritz moves between the posts again, but the Karpouzidis brothers are injured and are allowed to pause.
Geretsried - The soccer players at TuS Geretsried are continuing their preparatory program with a supposedly easier task. After the cup success last weekend against the national league team SB DJK Rosenheim (3: 0), it goes to TSV Murnau this Saturday (kick-off: 12.30 p.m.). "It would be wrong to say: We'll cut them off," emphasizes coach Martin Grelics, who had scheduled a training session for his team in the morning before the test in the 10th district league and announced some personnel changes. Kai Fritz is in the gate again. Gentle brothers Tasso and Niko Karpouzidis and Jean Monty Mendama, who is currently “not pain free” due to groin complaints, should be spared. Everyone from the remaining 18-man squad will be deployed.
With all due respect to the club team coached by his ex-player Tim Schmid (when Grelics was still a TSV Peiting coach), he was obviously a favorite. "And that's how we will appear," says the TuS coach, who demands "a lot of possession" - and wishes "to get to the goal with determination". What is primarily meant is that his players acted "target-oriented". "They are often too fast and have too few regeneration phases with the ball," complains the trainer. "They often do not recognize when it makes sense to hold the ball." Which in turn means that some good goal opportunities remain unused. Because: "If grains are wasted unnecessarily, strength is lacking at the end."
For the Murnau hosts around the former Wolfratshauser Manuel Pratz, it is the second preparatory game - the district league club won the first match with district league team SC Pöcking-Possenhofen 2-0. "I'm sure there won't be a marksmen's festival," Martin Grelics dampens exaggerated expectations.
