Figures & facts: The top facts about the Braunschweig game
Kohfeldt premiere in the Merck Stadium. When the new head coach makes his debut, the Lilies will host Eintracht from Braunschweig on Saturday (September 14th/1pm). Will a team achieve their long-awaited first win of the season? Before the ball rolls at the Böllenfalltor on Saturday, we will provide you with the most important facts and figures about the game.
Cruciate ligament injuries to Will and Bader
Bitter news: Both Paul Will and Matthias Bader suffered serious knee injuries. Will suffered a torn cruciate ligament and medial meniscus in the friendly against 1. FSV Mainz 05, while Bader tore a cruciate ligament and medial meniscus during training on Tuesday (September 10th). Both players will be missing from SV 98 until the end of the season.
Opposition Check: Eintracht Braunschweig
Eintracht Braunschweig. A name that is firmly anchored in German football history. As a founding member of the Bundesliga, the club was part of the first division for years and even won the German championship in 1967. The birth of jersey advertising is also linked to the lions, as the Braunschweig team was the first club to enter a playing field with a sponsor on their chest in March 1973. Eintracht is currently playing in its third second division season in a row, and staying in the league is also the traditional club's declared goal this season.
At three locations: 5th Clean-Up Day with Krombacher
We Lilies – together for nature conservation! Under this motto, SV 98, together with Krombacher, has already organised four clean-up days to remove rubbish from the Darmstadt cityscape. Now the next edition is just around the corner: the clean-up will take place again on September 29th. And of course you can help again.
Lilien Golf Tournament | Debut for Nürnberger
The resignation of Torsten Lieberknecht and the signing of Florian Kohfeldt naturally dominated the headlines around the Merck Stadium during the international break. But there is also news about the „Bölle“ outside of the head coach position. You can find all the important topics in our weekly “Lilies across the Board” section.
On loan: Stojilkovic moves to Belgrade
Filip Stojilkovic will play for OFK Belgrade in the future. The attacker is moving to Serbia's top division on loan from SV 98.
Starting with Thunderstorms
When Florian Kohfeldt arrived in Darmstadt on Sunday morning, a small marathon began. Combined with a wave of new impressions. The Merck Stadium including the adjacent functional building, training pitches and rooms. The 41-year-old got to know his workplace quickly, gave his first interview and had numerous conversations with the members of the staff. On Monday there were discussions with players, the first official press conference and, in particular, the premiere training session with the team. Start-up time? Doesn't exist. The time until the first game against Braunschweig is too short for that. So it's important to use every single minute. And Kohfeldt does this in an impressive way.
Kohfeldt: “I longed for it”
In a press conference on Monday (September 9th), Florian Kohfeldt was officially introduced as the new head coach of SV 98. The 41-year-old gave insights into his game idea and reported on his first impressions. President Rüdiger Fritsch and sports director Paul Fernie also spoke about the process of finding a coach and looking ahead. We have summarised the most important statements.
