So it was that on Saturday evening long queues at the ticket offices in the future Volksparkstadion formed because on Thursday at 20.30 clock receives the Bundesliga 16th Karlsruher SC. In order to prepare for it, the coach has returned on Monday night with his crew back into training camp in Schleswig-Holstein Malente. Justification by the positive experience of the past week: “Malente is a little castle for us.”

Karlsruhe is for the native Darmstadt Labbadia a trip down memory lane. For the KSC’s shot as a center forward on the last stop of his playing career between 2001 and 2003 in 60 second division games 18 goals. The 49-year-old did reminiscing professionally: “I was last so in the tunnel and did not deal with it.” No time for feelings: “I am with all my heart at HSV.”

But Labbadia it has at least managed to get ten points from six matches, including victories were against Augsburg, Mainz and now against Schalke. Playful the coach has the team not advanced particularly, but that was not possible after the turn mediocre season. “The team has earned this Relegation” praised Labbadia.

The win against Schalke was a “tour de force”. As the football coach had undoubtedly right, it had to be a corner and a free kick, so that the host could come to largely unmotivated to work going to Schalke gates. “Standards, we have trained over again. This is one of them, and it paid off “, was Labbadia. “The team has done a great game under this pressure. That was sensational and should strengthen us “

. Two more match points

The players took a chance on two more match points respectful note. The strong Heiko Westermann, who had to leave just before the end Replace with cramps, said: “There is nothing to celebrate. We have to keep your feet still, focus on us, eat well, let us cultivate well and sleep well. “From Labbadia he received a special commendation:” Heiko gave everything at the end hurt in anything. But that is in such a situation to do so. “Westermann reported fit for the relegation matches. Even the replaced early due to a re-broken shoulder injury Pierre-Michel Lasogga is so good together again, “we hope,” said Labbadia, “it added get back.”

Lasogga was last year in Fürth, had served as the HSV 27 points for survival, the Savior with his goal, the HSV secured the class. Back then, the hamburgers were persecuted by pure luck after they had lost the last five matches of the League all. “This time,” compared Labbadia, “we do not get paid the relegation, but worked hard.” But also like to go out as usual this season, there are again many screws, must be turned on which. Since it would be beneficial if these screws would also shot once in the right direction.

In the two play-off matches is likely, if it allows the response to requests restrained reacting coach, even the yellow locked against Schalke “Captain mistake” (“Hamburger Abendblatt”) Rafael van der Vaart to participate again , Whether Labbadia Dutchman after his incredibly unprofessional action in injury time last week in Stuttgart, where he was booked, will again get back into the team remains to be seen. Against Schalke played Lewis Holtby from the beginning and could neither convince as the new less concern about the team Chilean Marcelo Diaz.
