Darmstadt 98: League leaders with enjoyment – ​​win against Dresden in sight!

Darmstadt 98 starts the 2nd Bundesliga on Friday evening as league leaders, a position that is currently inspiring the team and its coach Florian Kohfeldt. Kohfeldt emphasizes the positive mood in the team and uses the league lead as a strong incentive to build on the success so far. “It’s very, very nice to be at the top of the table,” said the coach. The last win against Fortuna Düsseldorf catapulted the Lilies to the top and gave them the momentum they need for the challenges ahead.

On Friday at 6:30 p.m. the Darmstadt team will face Dynamo Dresden, an opponent who is at the other end of the table. While Kohfeldt enjoys the success, he remains realistic: “We know that looking down is also important.” The coach has respect for Dresden's active style of play and is aware of possible changes in their line-up. Nevertheless, the goal is clear: a win against the Saxons would consolidate the league lead for at least one night and probably another week.

The path to success

Darmstadt 98 have already won four of their six second division games so far. This inspires self-confidence in the team, but Kohfeldt knows that the path to success has to be worked hard. “In order to be able to experience that feeling again after the last game, it is important to continue to work hard and improve,” he explains. The trainer speaks of success as a positive form of addiction that needs to be encouraged.

In the run-up to the game against Dynamo Dresden, the use of left-footer Fabian Nürnberger is still uncertain. His ability to create the game could be the crucial element to take the game in the desired direction.

Conclusion and outlook

The match against Dresden will not only be an opportunity for Darmstadt to defend their lead in the table, but also a tough test. Kohfeldt is optimistic: “We are enjoying it and have a clear goal of continuing to win.” A statement that underlines the determination and ambition of the lilies. If they manage to demonstrate their quality against Dresden, they could further consolidate their place at the top and perhaps even keep the competition at bay.
