No games! FC St. Pauli's fight for Schalke

Of course, it is also clear: it is no longer primarily about the true of a minimum chance in the promotion struggle, but above all about being able to set up a reasonably competitive team. Ten professionals are in isolation, except for the Philipp Ziereis, which has already been positively tested on Friday, no name is published.

Counting on the training ground at the start of the week was quickly d1. With Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, Learst Paqarada, Jakov Medic, Jackson Irvine, Afeez Aremu, Igor Matanovic, Marcel Beifus and the goalkeeper Dennis Smarsch and Sören Ahlers, nine professionals were on the pitch, the group was filled with U-23 and U- 19 players.

Bornemann: "We also don't fall into self -pity"

Since there are also six other professionals, the number of failures to be expected is exorbitant, but Bornemann unequivocally clarifies: "We are not trying to find players that we could not report to be able to apply in order to apply for a laying, but we do Everything to get a competitive group together. We don't want to play games so as not to have to compete. We also do not fall into self -pity. "

Avevor is considered capable of playing for the DFL

The bill is this: "We need 15 players who are entitled to play, including nine license players and a goalkeeper. We have it now." This does not say anything about the quality of the available squad. Because: The injured and non-infected professionals are officially entitled to work, Bornemann shows this using the example of Christopher Avevor, who has not played a game for almost two years due to ankle operations and is still in sick leave. "For the DFL," says the 50-year-old, "he counts as playable."

no new positive finding

Since the list of entitlements can be refilled, Bornemann assumes that he gets a playable squad in accordance with the statutes, but deliberately installs the reference "Stand Stand now". Because: further cases should not be added, but since Sunday the tests have not given a new positive finding.

For current everyday life, St. Pauli has switched back to the mode, which was specified after the re-start almost two years ago: "Our players only meet outdoors outdoors. They come to the training ground, showering at home." Those responsible have no answers to the question of how the mass outbreak could arise: "We got through the pandemic very well beforehand, and we recorded our concept all the time."

"We will not expose any health risk"

The concept until Saturday provides for exploiting all possibilities. And at all levels. In Hamburg, an insulation order of ten days remains unchanged, including the possibility of being able to find out after seven days. It is still open whether the state of the RKI recommendation to allow early stations after five days. It would be relevant for St. Pauli: Since the symptoms of the group's gross occurred last Saturday, theoretically would be possible for individuals from Friday. And with it also a nomination for the Schalke squad? "Main," says Bornemann, "for us the condition of the respective player. We would only take someone with us with a 100 % freedom of symptoms and the okay after the cardiological examination. We will not expose any health risk."

The goal after the 1-1 against Nuremberg was to take the last opportunity to get another hand on the promotion train on Schalke. The days after that, the starting position completely changed and brought the sobering realization that it has left at the latest. Without the autumn champion, for whom the current situation is something like the icing on the cake on a sporty back series. "For everyone," Bornemann, "Saturday is now the chance to set a big sign again as a group and to try to prevent the Frebier tap from opening after the game in the arena."

"We know that the competition is looking at this game"
