Coach Kwasniok takes Paderborn pros to task
Second division club SC Paderborn 07 wants to end its recent slump. After the two defeats against Nuremberg (1:3) and Elversberg (1:4), Lukas Kwasniok put his team, which has slipped to 12th place, under pressure. "We want to show our true colors. We've been too lethargic recently. Now it's about playing soccer with heart and soul," said the soccer coach, full of hope for a defiant reaction from his professionals in the home game against Hannover 96 on Sunday (1.30pm). He announced a comprehensive rotation: "Four positions are safe in the starting line-up."
Raphael Obermair and Sirlord Conteh, who were injured at the start of the week, are on the road to recovery. However, Visar Musliu, Kimberly Ezekwem and Niclas Nadj are likely to be absent.
The coach, Kwasniok, is encouraging SC Paderborn 07, currently in Bundesliga 2, to display their strength on the soccer field after a series of lackluster performances. Despite injuries to Raphael Obermair and Sirlord Conteh, the team is preparing for an intense home game against Hannover 96, hoping to turn their fortunes around in Bundesliga 2's competition.
