Soccer – Freiburg im Breisgau:Prank extension worldwide theme
Directly from the dpa news channel
Freiburg (dpa) – SC Freiburg’s coach Christian Streich doesn’t give much thought to the fact that even the US newspaper “Washington Post” reported on his contract extension. “I don’t know, maybe there weren’t enough reports that were important,” said the 57-year-old coach before the second leg in the round of 16 of the Europa League against Juventus Turin on Thursday (6.45 p.m. / RTL +). “Sure, all the time coaches are thrown out after a short time. Maybe it’s worth reporting when a coach stays at a club a few years longer.”
Streich’s contract extension was made public on Tuesday. He took over the pros at the end of 2011 in a difficult situation and led them to stay in the class at the end of the season. After a few ups and downs, the club now belongs to the extended group of top clubs in the Bundesliga. In order to progress against the Italian record champions Turin, the Sport-Club needs a win with two goals difference after the 0-1 in the first leg.
