After a tight 80 minutes of Training on Thursday morning the two oldest professional football players of Hertha BSC left together in the practice space. Vedad Ibisevic and Salomon Kalou on to 67 years, both of them are despite his advanced football age for the Berlin Bundesliga club but almost indispensable. Manager Michael Preetz has described her as loving as appreciative as storm veterans. Both talked to the Gang in the cabin. After all, a real Highlight on Saturday. Hertha have to get to the record Champions FC Bayern.
captain Ibisevic is for the game locked
Vedad Ibisevic will annoy a bit. He, who had scored the 2:0 victory in the first leg against Bayern at the end of September in Berlin in the lead, now has to serve in the return game, a yellow lock. The fifth Yellow card he had happened a week ago, by the replacement Bank to pick up, what is really so often in the Bundesliga. In the game against Bremen was on the height of both the coach benches to a pack, as captain Ibisevic wanted simple, actually, but that’s not the occasionally impulsive Bosnians. The referee warned him.
In Munich, will use Herthas coach Pal Dardai’s Davie Selke in the storm center, which is recently getting back into the swing. In the last two Games in Gladbach and against Bremen the 24-Year-old scored a goal each. “He always has a big will, it’s fun to work with him,” said Dardai, “I hope he stays on for now.” Herthas coach is forced to Change to a different person.
Marvin Plattenhardt and Jordan Torunarigha two players drop out, which came for the left-back so far out of the question. The 21-year-old Torunarigha problems are again encountered tendon on the Achilles, forcing him to a multi-day break. He probably will be for the next home match against Mainz. Plattenhardt plagues, however, problems in the adductors. Above all, the renewed failure of Torunarigha is annoying, showed the young man again recently, increasing considerably the Form.
Arne Maier is ready for use again
So Maximilian Mittelstädt, the last held in the offensive role on the left of the track will probably be back a Position to the rear. Two weeks ago, the 21 had a-Year-old, the Berlin shot in the Cup round against FC Bayern München in Front, as Hertha in extra time 2:3. “He is doing really well, no matter, whether in the four chain in the back or in the five chain at the front,” said Dardai. The 42-year-old Hungarian in Central city, even a future national player. “He is left-footed, brave, fast. He has almost everything, and in two, three years, if he stays healthy, you will discover him.“
remains Open for the time being, who will occupy the Position in the Central midfield next to Marko Grujic. Arne Maier is, at least to suspend for a week, finished last again, the team training without any problems. However, Herthas coach looked at the 20-Year-old very closely as he told. “Arne is after his injury is still not quite at 100 percent, but this is completely normal,” said Dardai. In By Sjkelbred and Vladimir Darida, he has two options. “I’ll be the judge of the round,” said Dardai. Especially important is the form and mental state of the player at the end. “We’re not going to Munich just to be there and kind of participate,” said Dardai, “we want to bring something, too.”
a year Ago, Hertha 0:0 in Munich
The last guest performance in Munich almost a year ago, played for Hertha won the 0:0 point. Since then, a lot of things at Bayern has changed – not least the coach. But also by the Berliners has done something. On the question of whether it is for him an additional incentive to help through a dedicated appearance in Munich to Dortmund in the Champions race, replied Dardai on that has been given him. “in Private, I am a Niko Kovac Fan”, said the Hertha coach. “But not in this game on Saturday.”
Finally, Herthas Manager jumped to him: “We want it for us, not for Dortmund,” said Michael Preetz.
