With an almost unchanged squad, the SV Pullach is preparing for the remaining season. Martin Bauer's renewed injury means a very severe setback for the penultimate of the Bayern Bayernliga.
Pullach - The Ravens have two winter exits, both for professional reasons. One of these two, the only 20-year-old Felix Braun, had not completed a minute in the Bayernliga this season due to injury. In contrast, Michael Hamberger scored four goals in 19 appearances. The 30-year-old still lives in Munich, but has officially joined the national league team SpVgg Lam. According to SVP manager Robert Bäumel, “when he is in his home village at the weekend, he wants to play there. However, he no longer brings the training with us into order. "
No replacement will be brought in for the two offensive players. “We fill the gaps with Gilbert Diep, Leon Ritter and Max Zander. We have three options with which we are variable, ”says Bäumel. The most serious personnel is that of Martin Bauer anyway. The midfielder was, alongside goalkeeper Marijan Krasnic and captain Michael Hutterer, one of the three pillars on which player coach Alexander Benede wanted to build the team. But a cruciate ligament tear in his left knee, suffered in the summer preparation, has so far put him out of action.
When Hutterer had to take a long break due to an injury, the ravens crashed: after twelve games without a win, they found themselves back in the table cellar. With Hutterer's comeback, things went up again in November, and now Bauer's return should give another boost on the way to relegation.
But nothing comes of it, as Bäumel reports: "Martin injured his other knee during training, one suspects a meniscus damage." An exact diagnosis follows these days, but Bäumel is not under any illusions: "The way it looks he will be out until the end of the season. It is bitter for Martin and bitter for us. We have been waiting for him for months. "
The preparation went well with three victories for the ravens. A 6: 0 over the district league team FC Aschheim (goal scorers: Henri Koudossou / 2, knight / 2, Diep and Marco Kammergruber) was followed by a 2-1 victory over the regional league team SV Heimstetten and the state league team SE Freising. "I especially liked the game against Heimstetten, there was no difference in performance," said Bäumel, praising the team after Diep (62nd) and Koudossou (85th) had turned the early deficit (7th).
Bäumel was somewhat more critical of the appearance against Freising, in which Selcuk Altug (4th) and after the 1-1 equalizer (15th) hit Zander (86th) for the SVP. "A game at eye level in which we took a few breaks."
There are two tests against the national league teams: next Saturday (11 a.m.) at home against TuS Holzkirchen and a week later, on Saturday, February 29 (2 p.m.), at FC Unterföhring. Things will get serious on Saturday, March 7 (2 p.m.): The ravens are expecting TSV Landsberg, and given four points behind the rescuing shore and five of them to the Landsbergers, Bäumel emphasizes the importance of the Bayern League kick-off: “If we win there, we are with the people.
