The winter break is over, now it starts again: After a series of draws in friendly matches, TSV Grünwald starts the rest of the season in the Landesliga Südost.
Grünwald - The TSV Grünwald looks very relaxed towards spring. "The ascent is not an issue for us at the moment," says Jochen Joppa, spokesman for the Green and Whites, before the spring start on Saturday (3 p.m.) at SpVgg Landshut. "We are always happy if we have nothing to do with the relegation." And in this direction there is nothing to fear in the third place in the table given 38 points.
The situation is completely different for the opponent: The SpVgg Landshut, battered by injuries in the old year, is in 15th place in the mess. After a series of defeats, coach Johannes Viehböck resigned, the players Tobias Rewitzer and Christian Scheffel took over until the winter break. Now Georg Sewald, a new coach, is making his debut on the bench. So many imponderables at the start, but one thing Joppa is certain of: “It will be very difficult because the Landshut have to do something. If we get a point, I look very positively into the future. "
The last tests also provided little knowledge. After a loose 10: 0 against SpVgg Haidhausen, there were four draws: 3: 3 against Bad Heilbrunn, 1: 1 against Berg, 2: 2 against FC Hertha, 2: 2 against Mering. "Typical preparation games," says Joppa, who, in addition to Markus Baki (cruciate ligament rupture) and Thomas Niggl (pubic inflammation), reports a second injured regular player. Enes Kiran, Attila Arkadas and Luca Tschaidse will not be in the starting line-up due to a lack of training.
Leon Sammer, son of former international Matthias Sammer, is a hot candidate for the starting lineup not only because of the failures. "He is doing very well," says Joppa, praising the 18-year-old attacking midfielder.
Alexander Buch is not yet included. The 31-year-old can look back on four second division (FC Ingolstadt) and 30 third division appearances (Ingolstadt, SpVgg Unterhaching, Jahn Regensburg, SV Elversberg), in 2017/18 he played for Bayern TSV 1865 Dachau, followed by a stay in Australia without Soccer. “It looked good in the preparatory games, but he needs practice. And at the moment he has tendon problems, ”explains Joppa, why the midfielder is still missing in Landshut. around
