Alemannia Aachen before the duel in Saarbrücken: This is how coach Backhaus wants to win!
In an exciting turn of events for Alemannia Aachen, Heiner Backhaus was introduced as the new head coach. The 41-year-old, who most recently worked at BFC Dynamo, has signed a contract until June 30, 2025. Backhaus emphasized his enthusiasm for the opportunity to coach such a traditional club and is determined to inspire the fans with passion and energy. “It is a great honor for me to be able to coach this incredibly great club,” explained the coach, who, as a child of the West, has a special connection to Alemannia, as the news site said alemannia-aachen.de reported.
Heiner Backhaus is entering a challenging phase as Alemannia meets 1. FC Saarbrücken next Sunday. After an arduous 4-1 win against the district league team TV Hopesthal, he has already formulated clear expectations. “Anyone who knows me knows that I put my finger in the wound,” clarified Backhaus and emphasized the need to achieve better results. While the mood in the team is positive again and 1,300 Aachen fans have already bought tickets for the upcoming away game, the pressure on Backhaus should not be underestimated. “We're not going there as a hoper,” said the coach confidently, while pointing out the challenge of defeating the third-place team in the league, who won their most recent game. The elements that are important to him, such as ball control, physicality and efficiency in front of the goal, are part of his game analysis aachener-zeitung.de highlights.
Despite a few absences due to injury, Backhaus remains optimistic. Anas Bakhat has resumed training without pain and the team is working hard to improve its offense. Ahead of the upcoming duel, the coach demands a strong reaction from his team and firmly believes in the abilities of his players. “We are working on creating more chances from the game and I am convinced that this is how we will get our goals,” said striker Töpken.
