“I’m ran over, because they called my name. I did not want to be rude, so I’m educated,” Freiburg’s head coach described one of the rare appearances in front of their own fans.

Now the duo is only a encounter from the final, both already experienced with the A-youth. “It was great at that time, I know everything else, that’s great to deny a German final in Berlin,” remembered prank. In 2011 he triumphed and Günter with the U19 against Rostock, 2006 (against Karlsruhe) and 2009 (against Dortmund) the then Jugendcoach strick crowned in the capital. “If you only have a game up to Berlin in front of the chest, you can not say, so I’m satisfied,” said Günter and the substitute Roland Sallai, protecting the decisive gate in the 120 minutes, clearly asked: “We want to go Berlin into the final. That’s our goal. “

What the fans can – and do not prank
At least a preferred opponent does not queue prank and the fantasies of the trophy he would rather left others anyway. “I should not dream so much, but working decent,” said the 56-year-old and added, “Fans can dream, that’s why they are fans. I’m making my job as a coach.” And sometimes, sometimes the corridor is in the curve.
