As expected, the German Football League canceled the second division games of Holstein Kiel against Hannover 96 and 1. FC Nürnberg, which were scheduled for Wednesday and Saturday.
The DFL was forced to take this measure because the DFB Cup semi-finalist currently has to keep fit in his home office due to two corona cases in his team. “Since the club’s licensed team had to go into quarantine at home as a result of a corresponding order from the responsible health department due to Covid-19 cases,” the encounters could not take place as planned, the statement on Monday evening said.
The DFL wants to decide whether the Holstein game against SV Sandhausen will be canceled on April 21 by the end of this week, taking into account the current status. The quarantine of the Schleswig-Holsteiners ends on April 20, so this duel will very likely take place on a different date.
Shortly after Ioannis Gelios, another player tested positive and the entire team had to be quarantined. Now an appointment chaos threatens. more

Some Holstein professionals in quarantine for the third time
Last Saturday the game of the “Storks” against Jahn Regensburg could not be kicked off. KSV is eight points behind leaders VfL Bochum, but two games behind fourth place in the table. The Kielers see themselves faced with enormous problems within six weeks because of the second 14-day compulsory Corona break. It is “probably a unique situation that a professional team was taken out of training within a month and a half for four weeks while the competition was able to use these six weeks completely,” said coach Ole Werner on Monday. Some of his footballers are in isolation for the third time this season.
Because of the quarantine imposed on part of the team and injured players, there are no longer enough players available to Kiel. more
