Bremen - Florian Kohfeldt delivered his message calmly and matter-of-factly , but the content was full of explosives. And for the end, he chose striking words: "We will not let us down!" Due to the controversial cancellation of the game last Sunday, the coach of SV Werder Bremen feels even more challenged and has tonight at Eintracht Frankfurt before the DFB Cup quarter-finals ( 8:45 p.m.) the new club motto was published: Werder against the rest of the world. Frankfurt coach Adi Hütter doesn't like this presentation.
"From a sporting point of view, you have to admit that it was a very bad decision for us, which gave us a clear competitive disadvantage in two competitions," Kohfeldt looked again at the press conference for the cup game on the decision of the German Football League ( DFL) back. They had canceled the Bundesliga game Werder against Frankfurt without a new date because the Hessians should have played twice within three days after relocating their Europa League game in Salzburg.
Werder Bremen versus Eintracht Frankfurt: Florian Kohfeldt chooses a more aggressive route
Werder had to watch the weekend as the competition continued to pull away in the relegation battle. At the same time, Eintracht could rest for the cup game. Sports director Frank Baumann had also complained about this, but left the impression that Werder Bremen would endure the action.
Kohfeldt now chose a different, a more aggressive way - and for this he threw everything negative this season, such as bad luck for injuries and unfortunate referee decisions, in order to mix a magic potion for his resistance fighters: “You can turn the overall situation into a positive one that one says: There has been resistance against us again this season. And we want to show it to everyone! That is the great motivation we have now. "
Werder Bremen with anger in the stomach against Eintracht Frankfurt in the DFB Cup
Later he even increased the "big motivation" into the "main motivation". That sounds like a lot of Bremen anger in the stomach for the duel with Eintracht Frankfurt. Especially since there should have been no talk of the two clubs working together on this matter.
"I don't need any motivation spurts from the outside. It is enough to move into the semi-finals, " Adi Hütter reacted quite cautiously to Kohfeldt's statements at the Eintracht press conference and gave the opponent a meaningful piece of advice:" I understand Bremen, because everyone is fighting for their club and theirs Advantage. But I also appeal to empathy. "
Werder Bremen: Florian Kohfeldt warns of "incredibly physical" harmony from Frankfurt
It will be exciting to see how much this mood of those responsible will be transferred to the pitch. Irrespective of this, Kohfeldt is counting on a fast-paced game anyway: “ Eintracht is a very, very physical team that can develop an incredible force - especially now because it is rested. It is very important for us to keep calm. If they try to overrun us, we have to be very stress-resistant. ”
The people of Bremen know a lot about stress, they have it every week in the relegation battle. There they got along less well. In the cup, on the other hand, things went better, as a blatant outsider was defeated 3-2 in the round of 16 Borussia Dortmund. “It's a knockout game , and it's always a special situation. I really like games like that and my team too, "grinned Kohfeldt, recalling the previous season with the bitter semi-final loss to Bayern:" So now we can go to the semifinals for the second time in a row. And well, there are logical chains: quarter-finals, semi-finals - it's clear where we want to go! ”(Kni)
