Lobinger’s son Lex-Tyger, who has been under contract with the Palatinate since the beginning of the season, was not in the squad for the second division side’s away game at SC Paderborn on Friday evening, which FCK lost 1-0. (NOW in the LIVETICKER).
“For us it was about getting some ground under our feet after the brutal news that Lex-Tyger Lobinger reached yesterday and that somehow affected the entire club,” said FCK coach Dirk Schuster after the game in the ARD.
Schuster continues: “It did something to the team. The final training was more than mixed because no one was really involved. It is all the more astonishing that the team has killed the Heben.”
Despite the defeat, Schuster was satisfied. “It’s remarkable how the team was able to do this. Hats off, great respect!”
In 18 appearances, the 23-year-old Lex-Tyger Lobinger managed two assists and one goal. FCK trainer Dirk Schuster replaced Lobinger, who had always been in the squad until Friday, this season mostly in the final phase. (DATA: The table of the 2nd Bundesliga)
Former pole vaulter Tim Lobinger died on Thursday at the age of 50 after a long battle with cancer.
