Teutonia Ottensen says game: 15 players injured or sick!

Emden, Deutschland - Teutonia Ottensen has canceled the game against Kickers Emden due to acute personnel problems. The Hamburg association can only fall back on nine healthy players, since 15 actors are sick or injured. "The health of our players comes first," said Kevin Weidlich, the sporting director of Teutonia. The decision follows a bitter 1: 9 defeat against Phönix Lübeck, which the team also put under pressure.

The cancellation came as a surprise to the fans because the Kickers Emden are in good shape and were looking forward to the next regional league game day. Defense chief Fabian Herbst regrets the decision because he wanted to take the positive momentum from the last away game. In order to remain active, coach Stefan Emmerling has set intensive training for Saturday morning. A new date for the game against Ottensen has not yet been determined, while the Kickers Emden are preparing for the Lower Saxony Cup final against VfL Osnabrück, which will take place on Wednesday.
