Home Game Information: FC Augsburg
On Saturday afternoon (2nd March/3.30 pm) SV Darmstadt 98 welcomes FC Augsburg and asks you to pay attention to the following information.
“Want to reward ourselves at the weekend” | Promotion!
Fabian Holland spoke in a media round on Wednesday (February 28th) about the draw in Bremen and why the three points will finally work at the weekend. Otherwise, the SVD can celebrate some successes with the basketball players, the Zwoten and the eLilien. In our weekly section; you can also read how yesterday's fan evening (February 27th) went and what anniversary our main stand is celebrating.
Opponent Check: FC Augsburg
The Lummerland song was played for the second time that day. Stephan Hein scored with a goal in the 85th minute. This caused Jos Luhukay, who was otherwise so calm and composed, to dance in celebration. He hugged everyone he met and ran towards the cheering crowd of players, beaming with joy. Hands stretched over the head and later in the hop fumes of a beer shower - Luhukay and his Fuggerstadt residents in spheres of joy. On matchday 33 in May 2011, FC Augsburg won against FSV Frankfurt 2-1. With a three-point lead and a goal difference that was 20 goals better, promotion to the Bundesliga was more or less confirmed. What had been denied in the relegation last season now became reality: for the first time in the club's history, FCA was promoted to the Bundesliga and remains there to this day.
Fears confirmed: Mehlem fractured fibula
Bitter diagnosis for Marvin Mehlem: The midfielder suffered another broken fibula in the away game at Werder Bremen. The 26-year-old will undergo surgery later this week.
“A rule that should be changed”
Collected one point. The Lilies draw 1-1 in the away game at Werder Bremen. SV Darmstadt 98 showed good morale after being behind for a while and equalised the Green-Whites' lead before the break. After the break, South Hesse continued to press and scored two further goals. However, VAR intervened twice, the lilies return home with one point; instead of having three points in the bag. How do the two head coaches view the game? What do the Darmstadt protagonists say? We have compiled all the voices about the game for you.
Point Gained
The Lilies get their next away point with a 1-1 draw in Bremen. Julian Justvan equalised in the first half for the South Hesse team, which meant they scored points away from home again.
„It’s a shame that we just didn’t score the goals“
Believed in it until the end, fought for home points until the end. But in the end, the lilies in the Merck Stadium at the Böllenfalltor are left with nothing to count. SV 98 had to admit defeat against VfB Stuttgart with 1:2 (0:1). The Darmstadt protagonists were disappointed at the microphones after the final whistle, especially because they were more than equal to the third-place team in the Bundesliga. We have summarised all the voices about the game for you.
„Three points would give us a massive push“
What is the mood within the team? How does Torsten Lieberknecht view his upcoming opponent? And which staff is available to him for the away game at Werder Bremen (February 24th/3:30pm) The head coach of SV Darmstadt 98 provided the appropriate answers to these and other questions at the press conference on Thursday (February 22). Here are the most important statements.
Statement on the termination of the DFL’s partner process
We welcome the DFL’s decision as a reaction to current developments. Although SV 98, like virtually all other professional clubs, sees the need for investments in media marketing, it should be noted that nationwide it has not been possible to convey these positive arguments of the planned strategic partnership to all football target groups – especially the fan curves.
