In the home game against Erzgebirge Aue on Saturday (1.30 p.m. / Sky), Karlsruher SC will again rely on the experience of veteran Daniel Gordon. The 36-year-old will play in the central defense of the second division soccer team because Robin Bormuth (ankle injury) is out longer, as coach Christian Eichner said on Thursday. This means that the German-Jamaican Gordon, who is actually intended as an “iron reserve” in Eichner's season concept, will make his fourth starting eleven alongside Christoph Kobald.
Karlsruhe - "The one who expected it the least was Daniel himself," said Eichner, who has no concerns.
“At the moment we are very happy that he is here.
You can tell when he's in the squad.
It is an enormous charisma that he still has. ”In addition to Gordon, Eichner can again rely on captain Jerôme Gondorf and thus another leading player.
On the other hand, striker Malik Batmaz will be absent due to illness.

These memories still hurt.
