The relegation-threatened women’s football Bundesliga team 1. FC Köln has parted company with coach Sascha Glass.

The second-bottom team reacted to the negative series of ten games without a win, which culminated in a 0-0 draw with bottom-placed Turbine Potsdam on Tuesday.

Nicole Bender-Rummler, head of women’s and girls’ football, will coach the team in Friday’s match at Werder Bremen (7.15 pm/MagentaSport). Those responsible do not want to discuss a longer-term solution until afterwards. Glass took over the FC women’s team in January 2020 and led them into the Bundesliga the following year.
