After the cup game is before the third division duel. Rot-Weiss Essen will face the leaders of the 3rd league, Dynamo Dresden, on Sunday (1.30 p.m.).
Rot-Weiss Essen’s Lower Rhine Cup game against Oberliga side SC St. Tönis was the last duel for RWE in September. This month ended with a sense of achievement: the defending champions did not show any weakness at the bottom of the Lower Rhine relay and won comfortably with 5:0 (3:0).
After a free Thursday, the RWE players will train on Friday and Saturday at 10.30 a.m. before front-runners Dynamo Dresden travel to Hafenstrasse on Sunday (October 1st, 1.30 p.m., RevierSport live ticker). All home tickets for this duel are already sold out, so there will be a sold-out stadium on Hafenstrasse.
Immediately after the Dresden game, the second English week in a row for head coach Christoph Dabrowski’s team starts on Wednesday (October 4th, 7 p.m.), with the away game at SpVgg Unterhaching. The promoted team started the season strongly, but then suffered their first defeat since the end of May on the last matchday against Arminia Bielefeld (1:2).
But first things first: The meeting with promotion contender Dynamo Dresden will round off the first English week on Sunday.
A highly intense, emotional game awaits us. That’s why it was all the more important that we moved confidently into the next round of the cup on Wednesday and took the next step
Christoph Dabrowski.
RWE coach Dabrowski is full of anticipation: “A highly intense, emotional game awaits us. That’s why it was all the more important that we moved confidently into the next round of the cup on Wednesday and took the next step.”
In front of a crowded harbor street, the 45-year-old will again be able to rely on the services of Vinko Sapina, who was only there in civilian clothes on Wednesday evening. Sapina, who had struggled with slight muscle problems in the previous weeks, trained individually with assistant coach Paul Freier in the morning and was taken out of the cup game – also to give Björn Rother 90 minutes of playing time.
In addition to the long-term injured Thomas Eisfeld, Ekin Celebi and Nils Kaiser, Jakob Golz and Moussa Doumbouya were also missing from the squad. The reason: The duo had the flu and were not used in St. Tönis for safety reasons.
