Munich - “We haven't been working towards it for eight years,” emphasizes Jochen Sauer, “only to say goodbye now”.
Although Sauer has only been with the record champions since the Bayern campus opened in 2017, he is well aware of how difficult it can be to return from the regional league.
MSV Duisburg against FC Bayern II in the live ticker: U23 is hoping for players from the professionals
It was not until 2019, in Sauer's second year as junior leader in Munich, that Holger Seitz finally made the longed-for return to the third division, where the championship could be celebrated directly under Sebastian Hoeneß.
The gap to the professionals * has since become noticeably smaller, and professional coach Hansi Flick * regularly resorts to players from the reserve.
In the end of the season, Flick could, conversely, provide the second team with one or two young reservists (such as Marc Roca * or Tanguy Nianzou *).
Because the need is great for the small Bavarians.
After only two points from eight games recently, they are on a relegation zone four laps before the end, two points behind the saving bank.
Tonight, the offspring of FC Bayern * will be guest at MSV Duisburg.
MSV Duisburg against FC Bayern II in the live ticker: coach duo Demichelis / Schwarz still without a win
Even the change of coach has not yet provided the desired impetus, under Martin Demichelis and Danny Schwarz, who replaced Seitz a few weeks ago, no game has yet been won.
In the recent 4-0 home defeat against Saarbrücken, for example, the inexperienced coaching duo misled their tactics and naively ran into the open knife for the well-known Saarlanders.
Further mistakes could mean relegation.
