TSV 1860 Munich beats 1. FC Kaiserslautern 3-0.
The voices of coach Michael Köllner and double goal scorer Phillipp Steinhart.
Munich - With the impressive 3-0 home win against 1. FC Kaiserslautern, TSV 1860 Munich marches on towards the 2. Bundesliga. Due to the draw in the top game between Hansa Rostock and FC Ingolstadt, the lions jump to third place. Direct ascent is also within reach again. The gap to Rostock is only two points. However, pursuer Ingolstadt has as many points as TSV. Since at the same time leaders Dynamo Dresden did not get beyond a draw at SC Verl, even the championship is still possible.
Michael Köllner was accordingly very satisfied with the performance of his team: “It was not a match at eye level.
We played with good grip and had good moments at the beginning.
We persistently won our goal and deservedly 3-0.
We wanted to play to zero and win.
We did our job. "
Michael Köllner: "It's fun to work with the troop"
The game-free weekend after the exhausting last few weeks was good for the team: “We were fresh and trained well. It's fun to work with the troop. We are a team, ”the Löwen coach told MagentaSport after the game. Before the trend-setting game, numerous Löwen fans accompanied the team bus from the training area to the Grünwalder Stadium: "It was impressive what the fans did". The proceeds from the game will go to a fundraiser for two brothers who lost their parents in a dramatic incident on Easter Monday. Kölner came up with this as well: “It was difficult before the game. We had a hard blow to our fan base. Lorenz and Vincent have become two orphans. We wanted the boys to notice that the Löwen family sticks together.It's not for nothing that we are Munich's great love. "
Kölner expressed special praise to a Löwen player: “Biankadi provided two perfect templates. The pass to Mölders was a huge ball. ”Despite third place in the table, the ex-Nuremberg coach does not want to talk about promotion:“ Tomorrow will be an important game. We'll see what Saarbrücken is doing so that we can be sure of fourth place. We can still finish fifth. I can't be preoccupied with something that might happen. We won again and thus achieved our goal. We moved away from Saarbrücken. "
Phillipp Steinhart was the man of the game.
The left-back scored two goals.
As a result, the 28-year-old was particularly satisfied with the performance: “It doesn't matter who scores the goals.
But of course I'm happy if I can contribute something ”.
Steinhart scored his first goal from a penalty even though he had missed twice recently: “I was allowed to play again today.
Thanks for that.
I've decided to clean it up. "
Phillipp Steinhart: "We know what we can achieve"
But Steinhart did not want to mention the promotion either: “We cannot influence what the competition does.
We concentrate on ourselves and know that we are a good team and what we can achieve with the way we play ”.
Next, the Lions have to play against Wehen Wiesbaden and in the city derby against FC Bayern II, before there is a direct duel for promotion against FC Ingolstadt on the last matchday - as of now -
“That's three boards.
But the way we are at it, anything is possible, ”said Steinhart, commenting on the calendar for the next crucial weeks.
