The district class and A class teams from the Freising district keep a balance in terms of corona optimism and pessimism. One question remains exciting.
County - The leader of the league is worried about the ascent, the last one can hope again. Many footballers - including those from the district classes and A-classes - are currently sitting at home in their Corona break and can only wait and see when they kick again and what happens if the season breaks off. Above all, coaches and officials agree that there are currently far more important things than football.
In district class 3, SV Vötting leads the table - but coach Manuel Haupt is pessimistic: "I don't think this season will be over yet." His team had trained normally until last Friday and then stopped operating completely. The Vöttingen players now have the task of keeping themselves fit in this emergency phase.
League leader SV Vötting is worried about his chance of promotion
What about a season break? It is difficult for the SVV trainer to speculate about the procedure. One scenario would be that the top leagues rise and the bottom descend. "In that case, it would be fairer for everyone to use the table from the end of the first round," says Haupt. That would make no difference to leaders Vötting. However, the coach also emphasizes that "we will accept all decisions made by the association - no matter how they turn out".

Markus Ujwari is a trainer at SG Eichenfeld, who, as the last defeated player, has practically no chance of remaining in the district class. “Of course, in the event of changes, one hopes that there will be no relegations if the game is abandoned or that playoffs may be played after the crisis. Ujwari also has sympathy with Manuel Haupt: "Of course the situation for Vötting is much more annoying than for us." The coach gave his kickers the request to run or cycle at least twice a week during the time without football .
"People from all over the world are still cheerfully flying through the area"
Until now, life without football was inconceivable for Jochen Jürgens. He is not only head of the soccer department at SV Marzling, but also one of the most active referees in the Freising district. In view of the border closings, Jürgens wonders every day in his job as a flight attendant ("People from all over the world are still flying happily through the area") and sees mankind "at the beginning of a global crisis". There are more important things than amateur football, but the official thinks optimistically: “I just hope that things will slowly start again at the end of April. But that's just hope. "
In the past week, Jürgens had felt the anticipation in the club that the game would start again after the long winter break, "because football is an integral part of our lives". His Marzlingers are currently fourth and still have every chance with four points behind the first two. The club wanted to attack in the next few months, "but some things are just stronger than football".
Alexander Ricks: "I'm really torn"
Aborting the point round without promoters would be mercilessly tough, especially for the BC Attaching II. The front-runner of the A-Class 6 is already eight points ahead of the second Attenkirchen and has already played the second half games against the favorites Oberhaindlfing or Istanbul Moosburg. "I'm really torn," said coach Alexander Ricks about the Corona break. He does not want a termination with promotion: "I don't really want to go up like that." On the other hand, in the event of an early end of the season, it would be bitter after the previously so outstanding round to be deprived of the wages earned.
The coach appeals to his players not to be unreasonable in the football-free period: "I told the boys that they shouldn't break everything that we have now built up in the weeks of preparation." Trainers that players should run for themselves three times a week. The disaster ordinance in Bavaria made it unnecessary to consider meeting together to run at a safe distance and then immediately returning home individually.
Another league leader from the district is FCA Unterbruck, who is currently five points ahead in A-Class 5 and one less game than second-division Eching II. Basically, says coach Alfons Deutinger, there are simply things that are bigger than football. "However, I would be lying if I didn't care how the season went on." Of course, nobody in Unterbruck would defend themselves against promotion in the event of a season break, but Deutinger thinks of his players and would so much that they kicked again at some point can be: "The players would miss a very nice experience if they could not climb on the soccer field."
That says Mario Spoljaric from SV Dietersheim
In contrast, SV Dietersheim can look forward to the decisions of the association with ease. The club, which had been dreaming of promotion in recent years, is currently in the no man's land of the A-Class 5. "We are not concerned with the table," says chairman and football boss Mario Spoljaric, "but life without football is easy boring". However, there are currently more important things. In Dietersheim, like almost everywhere in Bavaria, training was immediately stopped. Spoljaric has not had any discussions with players or parents of youth footballers in the past few days: “With the disaster declared, we all have planning security. With us in Dietersheim everyone reacts relaxed and prudent. "
Mario Spoljaric expects that the football-free period will continue for a long time because the corona crisis and the measures against the virus have not yet reached their peak. There is no training in his club, "but if a couple of boys meet to kick around, there is nothing I can do." In the past few days, a number of young people had come together to play the ball a little over a long distance. They lived the love of football, which currently makes the perceived corona quarantine even more difficult for many.
