Dynamo flops in League 2 - Cottbus back in business

Dynamo's most beautiful defeat

Thomas Stamm can also be different. The usually critical Dynamo coach, who rarely has a smile on his face, came out of his shell despite Dresden's 1-0 defeat at SV Waldhof Mannheim. He took the beer shower in the press conference in his stride and roared "Never again 3rd division" with the players and fans as the promotion heroes arrived at the Dynamo Academy on Sunday night.

He nevertheless fulfilled his responsibility to the team. At least he tried to. When the team stormed the press conference, he sent them away again with the admonishing words - "Have a non-alcoholic drink in between". He refrained from analyzing the team's performance, which was anything but ready for promotion.

Much more, he looked back on his first season in Elbflorenz. "There is a lot of joy. Especially when I see how many long-standing employees, including players who have been with the club, burst into tears. It's an expression of what the club means to the city and vice versa. That's one thing and that's exactly how it has to be. It's nice that we were able to give something back today," said Stamm on "MagentaSport", before he also joined in the celebrations.

Cottbus bang on the Baltic Sea

No, this bang was not expected from Energie Cottbus. "We had already said after the loss in Mannheim: If we want to have another chance, we need a different attitude, or at least a small change," said coach Claus-Dieter Wollitz after the 3:1 win at FC Hansa Rostock. They gave everything they had and didn't concede much against the best home team.

"I've always said that a lot can happen in soccer right to the end, a lot will happen. I hope that we have the conviction to give it our all in front of our own fans next week," said Wollitz. He is very happy to have found himself in the position of being able to secure a relegation spot on the final matchday against FC Ingolstadt.

Wollitz also announced that the club will make a further statement regarding Maximilian Krauß. His move to FC Hansa, which became public last week, caused a stir and resulted in the player being suspended. Wollitz made it clear what he now thinks of him with a sentence on "MagentaSport": "It wasn't me who suspended this character, it was Energie Cottbus who suspended this gentleman."

Hansa completely crestfallen

This was not how FC Hansa had imagined their last appearance at the Ostseestadion. The 3-1 defeat to Energie Cottbus almost saw the Kogge capsize in the battle for a relegation place. Although there is still some hope, a lot would have to happen if the Rostockers were to get the two deciding games in the end.

"I'm sure you understand that I can't wish you all the best for the last game," said Hansa coach Daniel Brinkmann, addressing Cottbus coach Claus-Dieter Wollitz at the press conference. "We are down. It's a defeat that really hurts," said the coach, summing up the mood in the team. They were the more dominant team throughout the 90 minutes, but didn't get enough results. Cottbus' effectiveness was the big difference.

Brinkmann was already looking positively to the new week. "We still have the chance to take a step forward on the last matchday. If there is a chance of finishing third after all, then we want to do our homework in Hannover," said the Hansa coach. He would also consider fourth place a success. "Because it would allow us to play directly in the DFB Cup," said Brinkmann.

Aue are sorry about their own performance

Jens Härtel sat frowning in the press conference and didn't want to think about the party that was supposed to take place after the game against relegated SV Sandhausen. "I feel really sorry for the players who are now being sent off. They deserved a better atmosphere," said the FC Erzgebirge Aue coach after the 2:3 defeat, which was sealed in the final minute by Dominik Baumann, a former Zwickau player of all people.

Two or three percent were missing, said Härtel. And they had to find that again in the last game of the season on Saturday at 1860 Munich and also in the regional cup final against 1. FC Lok Leipzig. "We have to make sure that we build up the necessary tension again," the coach demanded. The team is dejected and frustrated. "But we only have ourselves to blame for that. It's too easy to score goals against us at the moment. We also have to become more stable defensively with a view to the new season," emphasized Härtel.
