He is healthy again and ready to take advantage of his opportunity. If he gets her…
After a short Prussian break. Preißinger fit for “little Freiburgers”!
Münster’s midfielder Rico Preißinger (27) was almost completely flat for a long week. Caught by Corona. “I really didn’t feel well, I was pretty weak,” he is now even happier to have survived everything.
And there is also good hope that they will even be in the starting line-up in the tricky away game against Freiburg’s U23 (1:30 p.m. / live on Magenta Sport) on Sunday. As a “double six” together with Luca Bazzoli (23).
Background: Sebastian Mrowca (29), who he had to give priority to in this position before he became ill, is still out injured (torn fiber). Preißinger was actually supposed to slide back into the team in Ulm’s 3-2 defeat – if his own illness hadn’t put a damper on his plans.
Instead, he had to watch his colleagues’ shaky victory at home on television. “That almost drove me crazy,” Preißinger admits honestly, “I could hardly look for the last ten minutes. I was really relieved when the final whistle blew.”
Of course, head coach Sascha Hildmann (51) alone decides whether he can actually get involved in Breisgau from the start. Preißinger: “I’m a team player and don’t make any demands. And I can only try to offer myself strong training performances.”
The ex-Ingolstadt player would certainly be a little disappointed if he had to sit on the substitutes’ bench again.
After all, he was retained in the first eight league games before he was rotated out by Hildmann after the dismal 0-0 draw in Duisburg. Preißinger: “I can understand our trainer wanting to try something new afterwards.”
And further: “But that doesn’t throw me off. There are always phases like this in a career. I’m experienced enough to be able to handle it professionally.”
Nevertheless, it is of course the ambition of the ambitious midfield veteran (46 second and 146 third division appearances) to be first choice again soon. If possible in Freiburg…
Especially since he still has a score to settle with the “little SC”. Preißinger suffered two narrow 0-1 defeats with his former club Ingolstadt last season. However, the Freiburg team were still at the top of the third division. They are currently in last place in the table with just one win (1-0 at VfB Lübeck) from 14 games. Preißinger is certain: “We have enough quality to take three important points with us on the long journey home.”
In any case, the native of Upper Franconia (Münchberg) has never regretted his move to Münster: “The team is great, it’s a lot of fun. I feel completely comfortable.” An away win in Freiburg would of course be just right…
