Vzpomínky a naděje: Hráči OFC se ohlédnou zpět na Magdeburg-Duell

The effects of the missed promotion opportunities on Kickers Offenbach

The football world looks spellbound at the upcoming DFB Cup duel between Kickers Offenbach and the 1. FC Magdeburg. But for many players and fans, interest is not only limited to the current game, but also accumulates memories of past times. Sezóna 2015 byla obzvláště formativní, když byl Offenbach povýšen na mistrovství v regionální lize Südwest a prohrál v Magdeburgu v rozhodujících propagačních hrách. A sting that is still sitting today.

The games from 2015: a bitter defeat

Fabian Bäcker and Alexandros Theodosiadis, former OFC players, describe their experiences and sensations about the games. While Bäcker was actively on the pitch, Theodosiadis watched the action from the sidelines after injuring himself in the training camp. "The pictures of the promotion games just don't come out of my head," admits Theodosiadis. Bäcker also feels the return there as an emotional turning point.

coping with the past and friendship

The two players agree that dealing with this defeat was strongly shaped by camaraderie in the team at that time. "We were friends and despite the difficult circumstances we motivated each other," Bäcker looks back. Kromě sportu hráči také kombinovali touhu uniknout jejich finanční a sportovní situaci, což bylo kvůli konkurzním řízením sdružení nejisté.

social effects on the club and fans

The social dynamic that has developed around Kickers since that time is also characteristic. Členství a řez diváků se nejen změnily prostřednictvím sportovních úspěchů, ale také kvůli zmeškaným příležitostem, které se někteří fanoušci cítí bolestiví. "The fans are waiting much more than a unique success for a win in the first round of the trophy," emphasizes Bäcker. The emotions triggered by such games are unforgettable, even if the players of the past play in other clubs.

Vzpomínka na ztracené příležitosti

The interviews show that the sting of the lost chance continues to accompany the club. "It was the most exciting time in my career, and I would have wished nothing more than to climb with this team," reflects Theodosiadis. "The question of what if, I am often concerned. I am sure that we would have played a good role in the 3rd league," he adds.

anticipation for the duel with Magdeburg

When the ball is rolling next Monday, the OFC will not only compete against an opponent, but also against its own spirits. Despite the painful memories, bakers and Theodosiadis are optimistic about the duel. "Přejeme OFC, že v této sezoně bude konečně možné z Regionální ligy vstát," vysvětlují oba unisono.

To znamená nejen sportovní událost, ale také symbol naděje a neporušeného bojového ducha hráčů a fanoušků Kickers Offenbach, jejichž sny jsou stále přítomny ve vzpomínkách na arény.
