Why Darmstadt coach Lieberknecht does not want to be a fortune teller

"Something unusual can happen because we are able to do so," said the lily coach on Friday. His team gave the small advantage with the 1: 2 in Düsseldorf and the slipping from second place to fourth place and everyone had been a bit knocked out after the defeat.

But you pulled yourself out of this deep, preparing yourself with fun, but at the same time calm and focused on the last league game of the season. The pressure is now near Hamburg and Bremen. They knew that they could achieve something big, but could also lose a lot. "We are still there as a burdock."

Patric Pfeiffer is struck

What he said had occurred, namely that the decision was made on the last match day. In another point, however, he does not hope for his visual skills: "I also spoke fourth place about the stupid place before I started here," he said. "I don't hope that as a fortune teller I would be better off."

Against variable and strong Paderborner, the lilies are missing Fabian Schnellhardt (muscle bundle tear) and Aaron Seydel (calf problems) and also Klaus Gjasula after his yellow-red card in Düsseldorf. At Schnellhardt and Seydel Lieberknecht, however, it cannot be seen that they could be available again in the event of a relegation. A question mark is behind the use of Patric Pfeiffer, who injured himself in a tackle in training and was still examined on Friday.

Darmstadt 98: Trainer Lieberknecht will weiter nervig sein

According to Lieberknecht, a decision on how Gjasula is replaced in defensive midfield has not yet been made. This situation had already been intercepted several times, said the coach with a view to the various blocks and illness -related failures of the Albanian in the current season. Tobias Kempe and Marvin Mehlem would be an option for an offensive tandem in the central midfield.

Gjasula of the type is most similar to Nemanja Celic, who is available again after a kidney bruising. The regular central defender Jannik Müller would be the more defensive variant for the position before the defense. But Youngster Clemens Riedel (18) has already shown his skills in this position. "Those who go on the square have the 1000 percent trust like everyone in this fantastic team," said Lieberknecht.

"Then we'll see you in the first division"

On Sunday, you want to do without Paderborn on the fading of intermediate stands - unless there is "dramaturgically a moment when you have to do something".

There will also be no farewell to players before the game. "Every player in the squad is taken away when we ascend. You can assume that things will continue," said Lieberknecht. He explicitly called Leon Müller (no seasonal mission) and Adrian Stanilewicz (three missions). "They are all taken to the first division. I gave them the promise."

Even if Lieberknecht was emphasized during the entire press conference on Friday - he would have preferred to return the last question. "In which league does Darmstadt play 98 in the next season?" A journalist wanted to know. "You can choose that. Where you think where we belong." But the questioner did not give up until Lieberknecht finally replied: "Then we see each other in the first division. Because it is her wish. And ours too."
