The corona virus is also spreading across Europe. Now the TSV 1860 is also taking the first measures. With consequences for the coming opponents.
- For the time being, the TSV 1860 no longer shakes hands - because of the risk of coronavirus * .
- The Chemnitz FC must therefore do without a "nice symbolism".
- Against the climber is finally a threesome.
Munich - The lions are going ahead - at least when it comes to corona virus . To prevent contagion, the managing directors Michael Scharold and Günther Gorenzel issued an internal directive on Thursday morning: Pay attention to hand hygiene!
In detail, the professionals and other employees are encouraged to refrain from shaking hands and to use disinfectants when washing hands until further notice. Also on Saturday in the game against Chemnitz , the mandatory opponent handshake should not take place before the start of the game. "This nice symbolism" will be dispensed with, explained trainer Michael Köllner on Thursday afternoon at Grünwalder Straße. "It seems to be a bigger topic when you hear what the Federal Minister of Health says." Jens Spahn (CDU) had spoken in the ARD daily topics on Wednesday about sometimes not understandable infection chains. Köllner's conclusion: "I will not shake hands on Saturday."
1860 Coronavirus prevents: Body contact should still be sought on the square
Nothing should change in the duel behavior of its players. "We'll get there," said the coach, laughing. After four draws in a row , a win should finally come again. “Chemnitz is a difficult task,” said Köllner, “but it can be solved. We are targeting three points. "
The situation has eased in terms of personnel. Marius Willsch will return to the starting XI after a yellow card suspension, Daniel Wein has overcome his Achilles tendon problems and is also ready. However, he could have lost the regular place in the sixth position to Tim Rieder . The first division loan from FC Augsburg is again a stable pillar on the blue defensive after a long injury break.
1860 Coronavirus prevents: warning of "difference player" Hosiner
Some work to be done on Saturday. With Philipp Hosiner, trained at 1860, the Saxons employ one of the most accurate third division strikers of the season. "15 goals in 17 appearances - that's an extraordinary rate," said Köllner. The former national player of Austria deserves the distinction "difference player" - like most recently Meppen Deniz Undav , from which the lions promptly caught an early goal at 1-1.
The lions' offensive difference players? Sascha Mölders has been waiting for a goal for three games, Efkan Bekiroglu for four. "We have to develop more goals from midfield," says Köllner. "Victories feel nicer than a draw, especially when you do as much effort as we do."
In Giesing the second division is dreaming again - but after the recent results it will be difficult. Marco Hiller has extended the lions - what are the consequences for Hendrik Bonmann?
