“Men, let’s start!” Shortly after 4 p.m., Sturm Montag started preparing. Still without the team players and goalie Siebenhandl (test). The sweat will be pouring down for the next few weeks. An intense autumn with up to 29 games awaits the runners-up. “A highlight autumn,” says Christian Ilzer about dancing at three weddings with the Bundesliga, Cup and European Cup. “Obviously hearing the Champions League anthem would be fantastic. We want to cut a good figure in all three competitions,” said the coach, to whom Andreas Schicker gave roses at the start: “You have to give Chris credit for wanting to continue on this path with us. This shows that he is still hungry. He might have been able to earn more somewhere else,” said the sporting director.
