Hertha coach Tayfun corkut: "Clearly the pressure gets bigger"

Constantly new lineups because of the many failures, a holey defensive and forward any effectiveness: Korkut worked for weeks to the same sites from. In Freiburg stood Bundesliga debutant Marcel Lotka (20) the number 5-budgetary goal. And in central defense came in the last 20 minutes of injury-related replacement of Linus Gechter, who was on Sunday 18, Cimo Röcker to train.

Is 28 and his best reference were until the weekend 29 third division games (27 for Fortuna Cologne, two for Werder Bremen II). The last German Bundesliga debutant, who was older at the time of its premiere in the upper house at Hertha was Frank Mischke in August 1990 with 29 years and 59 days. "Time to train is definitely there," said Korkut after 0: 3 in Freiburg overlooking the new training week almost pleadingly. "It is important that we also have staff. Otherwise I can not disclose the contents."

returnees set player training

After all: By the replaced on Saturday with a bandaged thigh Gechter Korkut expects on Tuesday back in training. And with the player set of training on Sunday, the last missing Niklas Stark, Marvin Plattenhardt were (both by coronavirus infection), Marton Dardai (ligament damage in the ankle) and Oliver Christensen (hamstring) on the court and could join in some of the workload.

The last week against RB Leipzig (1: 6) to their positive tests also failed Maximilian Mittelstädt, Jurgen Ekkelenkamp and Dong-Jun Lee stood in Freiburg back in the squad. Lee replaced 70 minutes Vladimir Darida, Ekkelenkamp 78 minutes Marco Richter, Mittelstädt likely to displace the overmatched in Freiburg new signing Fredrik Björkan on Saturday against Frankfurt. The ailing midweek Stevan Jovetic (hamstring) played by the returnees Suat Serdar (coronavirus infection) and Dedryck Boyata (ankle) as well. Marc Oliver Kempf, who was missing red-blocked on Saturday is against his training club Eintracht Frankfurt back on board.

"One day after a game like this is not the best day"

Hertha advised by a coated penalty decision in arrears, acted especially after the break for a long time on an equal footing with the sports club - and lost at the end with 3: 0. "The penalty should not give you," Korkut had said on Saturday over Gechters alone against Roland Sallai.

If it should be someone who doubts the situation, we begin to.

In fact, contact was there, he was not but enough for a penalty. On Sunday Korkut pushed for: "If you put down there, sometimes things happen that happen this we also need to live in the moment, that is the reality, but that's why we do not begin to doubt ourselves, if it should be someone... who doubts the situation, we catch the on. But this feeling I have not in the team. "

Nevertheless, construction work is following the renewed check again popular, especially on Sunday evening, the FC Augsburg after his 1: 1 was passing against Borussia Dortmund in the table to the Berliners. "One day after a game like this is not the best day," said Korkut. "Since the disappointment of sitting in it, if you had opportunities to make the game different. In the coming days it comes hochzubekommen their heads. That will be better day by day."

Korkut job is relatively safe

His own job is - currently at any rate - relatively safe. Korkut could "seriously avoid individual mistakes, and from that we make too many" as a coach, explained managing director Fredi Bobic on Sunday at the "Sport-1-one-two." "If the points are missing, it is fixed quickly on coach. But Tayfun reached the team with a clear plan. On activism I have no desire."

We must not think that the 100 percent range, but must draufpacken.

He wants to the man he proclaimed the end of November, succeeding Pal Dardai, hold - despite its meager record: nine points from eleven league games, 12:27 gates, to mid-January, the DFB Cup knockout round K.- O. against city rivals Union (2: 3).

"Such a situation is not easy," said Korkut on Sunday. "Clearly, the pressure is greater give from game to game. But whining or is not an option." He sounds unchanged combative - and wants to tease out even more determination in his team: "We must not think that the 100 percent range, but must draufpacken We have to be incredibly persistent, so that we steer the situation on our side.."
