The second duel with the Memmingen Indians takes place on Friday evening in the fortress on the Trat. After a hefty 1: 6 home bankruptcy in the first clash, Deggendorfer SC still has an account of the Indians.
After the successful pre-season, which in the end almost would have been crowned with the championship in the Oberliga Süd, things are going anything but smooth for coach Sergej Waßmiller’s team this season. Many injuries and a lack of consistency ensured that the Indians have lagged far behind expectations in the season so far and are currently in tenth place in the Oberliga Süd.
However, the people of Memmingen are likely to have increased their confidence last Tuesday. There the Indians managed a 5: 4 victory after a penalty shootout at EC Peiting. The Deggendorfer defense must also pay special attention to contingent player Linus Svedlund. The Swede, who is mostly used as a defender, shines not only in his own zone, but also in the offensive game. With 35 points (9 goals, 26 assists) he currently leads the internal scorer ranking. The Canadian striker Myles Fitzgerald, who was signed up, already indicated that he was in danger of scoring. In five games, the lively winger scored seven goals and two assists.
Shortly before closing the transfer window on January 31. Deggendorfer SC has given another player from the EV Landshut youth team a sponsorship license. With Fabian Belendir, the DSC receives another alternative in the defensive positions. The 193 cm tall and 87 kg heavy Defender has passed through the junior departments of the cooperation partner EV Landshut and was the captain of the U17 team in the 2019/20 season. The right-handed shooter should train with the DSC’s top division team and may soon get his first missions.
The game starts on Friday evening in Deggendorf at 8 p.m. The game will be broadcast on SpradeTV.
