Matchday 7: Roosters @ Bremerhaven

There’s no need to talk too much about it: The home defeat against Frankfurt gave those responsible and active a bit of a headache before today’s away game at Fischtown Pinguins Bremerhaven (2 p.m., live on Magenta Sport and Radio MK): “We’re killing ourselves “The reward – and that’s frustrating,” said Roosters head coach Doug Shedden after the Frankfurt game, in which, in his not entirely insignificant opinion, his charges acted too undisciplined. “That applies to our penalty times and also the backward movement. “It wasn’t surprising how Frankfurt played and they did well – we just have to be prepared,” says Shedden.

It won’t be any different in today’s away game against last year’s runner-up. “Bremerhaven’s system has developed over the years and they have excellent individual players.” “We have to learn from Friday and then reward ourselves,” explains the Roosters head coach.

With 14 points from 6 games, the Bremerhaven team is once again in an excellent position as second in the table this season, and have conceded by far the fewest goals so far with just six goals conceded (the Adler Mannheim, second in this ranking, have conceded twice as many with 12 goals). . Alexander Sulzer’s team have already scored 21 goals themselves – they don’t need much more evidence of what a well-oiled machine was waiting for the Roosters.

“Bremerhaven is an absolute top team and I expect us to go into the game accordingly.” We are going there to annoy them and take three points – if we perform the way we prepare in advance, we can definitely do something take along. After today we have already played against the current top five teams in the league and we always had our chances, sometimes we were the better team. “Ultimately we didn’t take advantage of these chances and that will be punished against these teams – so we should just start using them,” says Doug Sheddendie.
