Hiller remains regular goalkeeper at 1860 Munich
Coach Maurizio Jacobacci has taken a stand on the goalkeeper issue at TSV 1860 Munich and confirmed Marco Hiller as the regular keeper. However, Hiller will be replaced once again by strong substitute David Richter in Saturday's third division match (2.00 pm) at 1. FC Saarbrücken. "Richter will be in goal and Hiller will be on the bench," said Jacobacci on Friday at the start of a monologue on the situation of the Munich goalkeepers.
"All of us at 1860 Munich are lucky to have two excellent goalkeepers." Richter had "not only stood in for Hiller well, but excellently", but that was also "his role as goalkeeper number two". "Questioning Hiller now would certainly not be correct," emphasized Jacobacci. "Taking away his trust now would not be beneficial for the future, because it goes beyond the performance principle." The "Lions" are also about values.
Richter has deputized for Hiller in the last four third division matches due to a knee injury. After the game in Saarbrücken, there will be a change between the posts. In the regional cup at FC Pipinsried on November 18, Hiller is expected to resume his regular position. After just one win from their last six games in the 3rd division, the "Lions" are under pressure in Saarbrücken.
Despite his strong performance as a substitute, Marco Hiller will take a seat on the bench during TSV 1860 Munich's third division match against 1st FC Saarbrücken. In the upcoming regional cup game against FC Pipinsried on November 18, Hiller is set to return as the regular goalkeeper for 1860 Munich.
