FC Langengeisling wants to take the momentum from the preparation against TSV Buchbach 2.
Langengeisling
– FC Langengeisling lost in preparation against a state league team and a near-state league team, and won against weaker teams.
How will that be against equal opponents?
The answer to that can be found in the home game on artificial turf against TSV Buchbach 2 (Sat., 3 p.m.), which has the same result as FCL with 20 points from 18 games.
However, the reserves of the regional league have already acquired district league practice last week with the 1-0 win against Reichertsheim.
Geisling's player coach Maxi Hintermaier only has the impressions from the preparation.
However, they were positive.
"We're in good shape in terms of fitness," he says.
The team also developed in terms of play.
"We create a lot of chances, but we still have to work on the last pass and the goal," says the coach.
The individual errors in defense, on the other hand, have become fewer, or in good Bavarian: "We hardly have a dog in the back."
However, Hintermaier has to do without several regular players: central defender Niko Simak, winger Hannes Dornauer and Maxi Maier, top scorer so far.
In the last test, assistant coach Douglas Wilson was injured.
His cleverness and routine will be missing against Buchbach.
These are failures that hurt, "but we have a powerful squad and will solve it together".
He could have any of his 17 players play without hesitation.
Opponent Buchbach is difficult to assess.
"It's a total grab bag.
The team always looks different.” Players from the regional league squad are often there after their training – like Andi Spitzer recently, whom Hintermaier knows from his time in Heimstetten.
At least today he can do without a reunion on the pitch.
“Andi is a 1.90 meter bar.
It's no fun for the opponent if they play in central defense or on the six." According to Buchbach's coach Manuel Neubauer, he has the entire squad except for Niko Llugiqi at his disposal.
Tip: 2:1
