Dynamo Dresden won the first of two test matches at the winter training camp in Lara, Turkey. The team won 3:2 (1:0) against Swiss second division side FC Aarau. Vincent Vermeij (45') put coach Thomas Stamm's team ahead. After the break, Aarau initially turned the game around through Daniel Afriyie (63') and Berdan Senyurt (72'), but Dynamo struck back. Jakob Lemmer (77) and Luca Herrmann (79) secured the win.
Dynamo started with all four new signings from the winter transfer window Jason Ceka (Elversberg), Jonas Sterner (Hannover), Robert Wagner (Freiburg) and Thomas Keller (Heidenheim). Both the quartet and the Dresden team as a whole showed that they have not yet been able to coordinate their processes. There were numerous coordination problems in defence in particular, which allowed Aarau to create two or three good chances.
