The previous goalkeeper Marco Hiller or newcomer David Richter? Who will be in goal at TSV 1860 Munich against Waldhof Mannheim next Saturday is still open. Meanwhile, Sturm candidate Gabriele Gori is said to have canceled.
“I still have a week”
In the blitz tournament with Borussia Mönchengladbach (1:2) and VfB Stuttgart (0:2) they were both allowed to play again on Saturday, the two applicants for the regular place in the Löwen-Tor. While Richter played against Gladbach, Hiller was in a duel with VfB between the posts. In a direct comparison, the previous regular keeper remained flawless, while Richter caused the 0:1 with a pass that was too short. But Hiller hadn’t been without mistakes in the last few weeks either, so the duel is completely open a few days before the start of the season. “I still have a week left. I’ll talk to both goalkeepers, which is also important. I’ll really take my time,” announces coach Maurizio Jacobacci to “the blue24” an.
Goalkeeping coach Harry Huber should also be included in the decision-making process. “He trains with the goalkeepers all the time. He’s involved too. But it’s also clear that both goalkeepers can still make progress.” As soon as the decision has been made, it will be there for the time being – at least until winter. At the same time, the 1860 coach makes it clear: “It doesn’t mean that if I decide on one now, that he will then also have the free pass. The goalkeeper who then plays has to continue to perform. That also gives the other goalkeeper the same A chance to keep showing up in training. But again, the goal isn’t for me to change the goalkeeper every week. He just has to exude a certain confidence.”
Cancellation of storm candidate Gori
In the meantime, the lions have not made any progress in the search for another striker. Most recently, Gabriele Gori was linked to 1860 by Italian first division club Fiorentina, but according to the “BildThe 24-year-old is said to have canceled. The search is now continuing. Whether this will be completed before the start of the league against Waldhof Mannheim next Saturday is an open question.
