Zwickau's victory in the catch-up game fell to 16th place in 1860. Does the relegation battle begin now? Are you kidding me? Are you serious when you say that! Köllner is based on the 2019/20 ascent race.


Zwickau's victory in the catch-up game fell to 16th place in 1860.

Does the relegation battle begin now?

Are you kidding me? Are you serious when you say that!

Köllner is based on the 2019/20 ascent race.

Gray November, bleak present. The one of TSV 1860 has become a bit more November-like on the (game) -free weekend. Due to Zwickau's win in the catch-up game (2-0 against Havelse), the lions slipped to 16th place - the third division Hades begins directly below. Sure: Even 1860 still has a game up its sleeve - the corona-related failed home duel with Mannheim (November 30). But how realistic is it when the coach publicly dreams of promotion and the team now explores the threatening widths of the mid-table for at least a week?

In any case, relegation battle is not an option for Michael Köllner.

He counters the cassandras in the environment with his interpretation of the table.

For example, these details: His team has only lost three times - once less than at the same time in 2020. With a win in Osnabrück, which initially seemed possible, 1860 would have set the points result from the previous season - which made many fans happy.

Especially because of the successful streak in the second half of the season (eleven games), which made it possible to participate in the relegation until the showdown in Ingolstadt.


Köllner: We need a third super series

Köllner's ambitious goal is to catch up, as he did when he made his debut in 1860: 14 games without defeat - with the theoretical chance of promotion on the last day of the game.

At the time, two teams landed in the first two places, which now serve as models for the Lions: Bayern II and Würzburg, after 14 rounds of the 2019/20 season, placed one or two points in the table before 1860.

The arch-rival's reserve in 14th place (18 points), the kickers in 13th place (19 points).


Köllner knows that he has to create something historical in order to be ranked 16.

with 17 points to achieve what he claims to believe in.

How did he say on Wednesday in front of the entrepreneurs for sixty?

"We were now allowed to play for promotion twice to the end." His goal is to repeat that - "this time perhaps with the better result".
