The Bundesliga premiere of SV GutsMuths Jena ended in defeat; Nevertheless, the players are now looking to the future more confidently – because they could keep up.
The badminton aces of SV GutsMuths Jena returned from their Bundesliga premiere in Munich late on Sunday evening with a 1: 6 defeat in their luggage, but not with hanging heads. Although TSV Neuhausen-Nymphenburg based there did not achieve the hoped-for point gain through a narrower defeat, the difference in performance was not too big for the clear outsider.
“We played pretty well,” said team captain Moritz Predel. “It was definitely exciting and we had a few close games.”
The first game point in the Jena Bundesliga history was secured by the women’s pair Annika Schreiber / Tabea Tirschmann. The team captain himself had bad luck, who had to forego the second men’s singles due to a groin injury. “I hope it’s nothing bad,” said Predel.
