St. Pauli surrendered to Mainz: Trainer and captain extremely disappointed!

coach Alexander Blessin was anything but satisfied after the 0: 3 defeat of his FC St. Pauli against FSV Mainz 05. "It is a maximum of annoying how the goals were made," complained the 51-year-old and described his team's mistakes as "beautiful gifts". Captain Jackson Irvine also criticized his team's appearance and called him "unacceptable". The disappointment was great after the fans had set a first home win, especially after the promising 0-0 against RB Leipzig and the 3-0 victory at SC Freiburg in the previous games.

Despite the negative experiences, Blessin did not want to speak of a step backwards. He recalled that it was only the sixth matchday and emphasized the positive achievements in the two previous games. Blessin defended herself against the expectations of fans, who thought that Mainz was a strikable team. "We have to bring our maximum. Then we will also hold this league, so I'm sure," added the coach. He continued to praise his team's fighting spirit, but admitted that the mistakes that led to the goals conceded urgently need to be turned off. For a detailed view of the situation, www.shz.de .
