League bottom team 1. FC Magdeburg has clearly backed coach Fiedler in the form of sporting director Schork. The misery will be dealt with together with the coach and the team.

After six defeats in a row, 1. FC Magdeburg has also backed coach Markus Fiedler. "The tenor is not to make any snap decisions and to take time for analysis. Of course, Markus Fiedler is our coach and the review has taken place with Markus," said FCM sporting director Otmar Schork on Tuesday at a media round of the second division soccer club and emphasized: "There is no deadline."

After the 4-0 defeat to new league leaders Elversberg, the mood was frustrated. "Sunday's game did a lot to us, it was a blow to everyone involved. The 0:4 hit us all, everyone, especially the team and the coach and of course our fans."

Schork: "Don't let it affect you emotionally"

For Schork, who postponed his planned vacation for a few days, it was important to "sleep on it for two nights. I know when I'm challenged. But I also have to keep calm, not let myself be influenced emotionally and perhaps make a decision that is not the right one in hindsight". He wants to work through the situation together with the coach and the team during the international break. "Markus has the necessary energy, he wants to manage the balancing act with the team. We have to straighten our heads now, clear our heads again," said Schork.
