Marco Friedl (23) reconciled with the fans against Heidenheim after a failed exchange strike in August. The Austrian ran after his volley hit (50th) to 1-0 (final score: 3-0) in the fully occupied fan curve, took hold of his heart and formed an “L”.
What nobody knew: There is a sad story behind this jubilation …
Friedl on “Radio Bremen”: “It is for a good friend named Lucas, who passed away about ten days ago in Austria. The ‘L’ is for him. “
Friedl: heartfelt cheers for dead friend
On September 22nd, Lucas Stöckl was only 24 years old in a traffic accident in Austria. Like Friedl, he came from the 6,000-strong community of Kirchbichl in Tyrol. No wonder this hit was a very special one for him.
Friedl: “I am particularly pleased that I was able to break the ice after the turbulent weeks.” The fans even shouted his name after the first goal of the season.
The breach of trust after his failed move to Union Berlin seems to have been cemented.
