Union Schafhausen: On the course of the victory - does the comeback from Giesen come?

Union Schafhausen is currently in top form. With a strong appearance in the last three away games, the team of coach Jochen Küppers was able to collect a total of four points and is well there after six match days with eight points. The recent 4: 1 victory against VfL Vichtal, in which the team was able to score with a lot of effort and efficiency, was particularly impressive. A highlight of the game was the comeback by goalkeeper Niklas Giesen, who returned after an injury break and was sent into the game at short notice due to logistical problems by Torben Fritzsche.

Next Sunday Schafhausen wants to continue the positive trend. From 3:15 p.m., the team receives the game association Frechen 20. Jochen Küppers, the coach, has respect for the opponent, who still has good quality despite a bumpy start of the season with many departures.

preparation for the dangerous goal scorer

The striker Patrick Friesdorf-Weber from Frechen will be a key factor for the game. The player scored an impressive 27 goals last season and already presented the Schafhausen defense against challenges in both encounters. "We have to contain him in the game," says Küppers about the importance of keeping the striker in check. The trainer also wishes that the game can take place again on the Kuhlert, where the lawn had to be worked on due to fungal attacks. A final decision on the field should be made at short notice.

Küppers is satisfied with the development of his team, which, as he says, has found the rhythm. Agreements and automatisms would always work better. In particular, the new additions Tim Scheuvens and Nico Schunk, who were still active in the district league A in the previous season, surprised him positively. Together with Niklas Demming, they form a functioning offensive.

For the upcoming match, Küppers has a wide selection of players available for the starting eleven. After injuries, Max Beumers and Phillip Grüttner and Justin Küppers are available again. Only Niklas Braun will not be in the squad due to his injury.

This weekend also takes place in the Middle Rhine League, including Merten against Porz and Hennef against Vichtal. The fans can look forward to exciting encounters, while Union Schafhausen is determined to continue the current positive trend.
