FC Gießen: Brave start to the regional league against Bahlingen

The return of FC Gießen to the soccer regional league Südwest is eagerly awaited. Coach Daniyel Cimen has prepared intensively for the start of the season and gives insights into the current team line -up. Particular attention is paid to Michael Fink's surprising nomination, despite his continuing injury, which forces him to rely on partly limited performance.

an unexpected comeback

The decision to include Michael Fink in the squad could be of great importance for team dynamics. The experienced player who was pushed to the edge due to an inner ligament injury brings a lot of experience into play. His potential commitment, even if only from the bank, could be both motivating for the younger players as well as strategic advantages in critical game situations. Nevertheless, it remains unclear how sustainable it can be available due to his injury.

The countdown runs

"Preparations for the match day started on Friday when some players prioritized their work for the team," said Cimen. This shows the high priority that the start of the season has for all players. All of the players available were involved in the final training in the Waldstadion before the Tross left to Freiburg. The first competitive game against Bahlinger SC begins on Saturday at 2 p.m.

challenges in the squad

The squad planning is difficult this season. In addition to Fink, Lian Akkus Rodriguez will also be missing due to a torn muscle fiber. Jemal Kassa injured himself in a last test game, which makes the staff cover appear thin. The uncertainty about the performance of young players in central defense brings additional pressure for Cimen, who has not yet decided who has started. Security seems to be located with Martin Mihaylov, who has shown the best performance in training so far.

A look at the opponent

The Bahlinger SC, who took 13th place last season, is assessed by coach Cimen as a serious opponent. "Bahlingen plays strength and will play a role in the race for the front places," says the coach. However, the last encounters against this team did not go well for Gießen, which also increases the pressure to break this negative trend.

conclusion

The argument on Saturday is more than just one game; It is a variety of emotional and tactical challenges for FC Gießen. The influence of Mikail Fink is observed with excitement, since it can not only act on the pitch, but also as mentors for the younger talents. The next 90 minutes could be decisive to determine the direction of the season and to strengthen the team's confidence.
