FC Augsburg has been unbeaten since ten Bundesliga games and goalkeeper Finn Dahmenwho recently on the radar of national coaches Julian Nagelsmann has landed, has been without conceding a goal for 613 minutes. After the international break, Jess Thorup wants to take the flow with her and enter the second victory in the Kraichgau.

That says coach Jess Thorup before the game in Hoffenheim …

… on the victory of the FCA against Wolfsburg:

“After the 1-0 victory against Wolfsburg We went into the break with a series of ten games without defeat. This is something extraordinary for an association like FC Augsburg. It’s a very good feeling, you shouldn’t forget to enjoy this moment.  »

… about the upcoming game in Hoffenheim:

« It is time to change the switch again and focus on the next game. We know that it does not come. We have to do something for us to get back into the flow. We have to work hard on that, but this week did very good units on the pitch and are ready for the Hoffenheim game. There are still eight games, i.e. 24 points. » The season is still long.  »

… about the personnel situation at FC Augsburg:

« Berisha was always an issue. He trained with the team this week. He increased in all areas and we see how he reacts to the stress and will make a decision tomorrow as to whether he is in the squad or not. Together with Gumny, Pedersen and Koudossou, he did not have the same days as the others on Friday and Monday to prepare for this game. Gumny, Pedersen and Koudossou are a possibility for the squad.

… whether the international break came at an unfavorable time?

« On the one hand you had the opportunity to enjoy the calm and the moment. On the other hand, there was also the opportunity to evaluate what went well. Where do we have to improve and prepare for this week in Hoffenheim. For me, this is not a problem that we were in the flow now. I said from the first day at the team that we have been free for a few days now, but now we have to come back into the focus. »

… what the next step for FC Augsburg can look like:

« Hopefully continue how we work against the ball. It is not just due to the defense players or the goalkeeper. It is up to the whole team how we work against the ball. It is clear that we want to try to improve aggressively, but we shouldn’t think, now everything is going there and now the focus is only on the offensive. I have the feeling that you can not wait in the cabin and on the pitch. »

… where the journey for the FCA goes:

« Out of respect for the opponents, I will not speak of relegation, as long as it is not 100 % safe. We are on a very good way and have brought many points. Nobody talks about the table in the cabin, Europe or 40 points. We talk about Hoffenheim, the next game.  »

… to the possible yellow lock from Matsima:

« Those who are at risk with yellow cards already know and know how to deal with it. »

… about the difficulties against Hoffenheim:

« I have not been able to win in Hoffenheim since 2019. Hoffenheim is a team that has the goal of playing in Europe every year. This is a club with money, with quality when you look at the squad. This is a difficult game, we are looking at ourselves. We are now coming with self -confidence, with flow, with ten games without defeat. You have the feeling that you can get every game against whom we can play against. We have prepared for this.
