In the second division soccer team 1. FC Magdeburg, the signs before the game against SV Elversberg on Sunday (13.30 clock/Sky) are on redemption. After five games without a win, coach Christian Titz has identified a lot of room for improvement and incorporated it into training. "We have room for improvement in how we defend goals against," the coach said on Friday. In addition, there would be the creation and especially the use of opportunities. "We lack the result, we know that. And on it we have worked this week with the team very concentrated," said Titz.
He sees a strong opponent coming to his team, which is unbeaten for six games. "It's a very running and playing team that likes to have possession of the ball, that has very fast players on the flanks. But it is also a team that runs at the opponent and puts it under pressure," analyzed the FCM coach.
A piece of bad news also reached the coach. Jean Hugonet will be missing from the team for an indefinite period. "We had hoped that it is not quite so bad, that it is not torn so much and heals better. But after these first four weeks, unfortunately, it has become clear that this is not the case. I can't make any predictions," Titz said of the health of the rookie, who suffered a muscle injury in the game against Paderborn.
