Lilien defender Guille Bueno, who celebrated his starting eleven debut in the 2nd Bundesliga last Friday in the game against Schalke 04 (5-3), spoke to journalists today about his first weeks at the Bölle, the first win of the season and his footballing career in Germany. The 22-year-old answered all questions in German. “I am very happy here. Darmstadt 98 is a good team, you can feel the positive energy. It’s important to me to spend this season with the Lilies,” explained Guille. The Spaniard, who spent three years in Dortmund and developed there, has often trained with the professionals in recent seasons. He said about his first game for Darmstadt in the Veltins Arena: “That was a special moment. Many Dortmund fans sent me congratulations after the game. The victory was important – for the team, for me and even for the BVB fans,“ said the left-footer with a smile. With regard to the yellow card, Bueno added: „I have to pay more attention to it in the future and improve on it in the next game.” The left-footed player sees his speed as his greatest strength. His compatriot Sergio Lopez was also a great help in getting used to things: “We can always talk to each other, even outside of training. Sergio is a great guy , he has also scored two goals – I’m happy for him.“ However, Bueno was self-critical about his own goalscoring ability: „I’m not that strong, I still have to work on that.“
After the long-term absences of Matthias Bader and Paul Will (both with cruciate ligament injuries), the Lilies have once again become active on the transfer market. Philipp Förster and Marco Thiede are now part of the squad and both bring plenty of experience to the Böllenfalltor.

After 13 unbeaten second-division matches, SV Darmstadt 98 suffered their first defeat this Friday evening. Three unfortunate minutes just before halftime, during which Patric Pfeiffer was sent off and Vincent Vermeij scored twice, paved the way for Dresden's victory. After the match, the focus was primarily on the differing assessments of two very similar incidents by the refereeing team – incidents which both coaches subsequently evaluated identically.
For the first time since October, Darmstadt 98 finished a league match without any points: SV 98 lost 3-1 (2-0) to SG Dynamo Dresden. After a controversial red card against Patric Pfeiffer (42nd minute), the home side scored two goals in first-half stoppage time to secure the victory.
