SG Wattenscheid 09 lost 3-0 against Sportfreunde Siegen. After the game, SGW coach Engin Yavuzaslan was quite upset by the expectations of some supporters.
SG Wattenscheid 09 got off lightly in the table after losing 3-0 (0-2) to Sportfreunde Siegen thanks to goals from Jubes Ticha (27), Malik Hodroj (38) and Mats-Lukas Scheld (57) at the Lohrheide Stadium.
Because FC Brünninghausen and TSG Sprockhövel, the two teams firmly in the relegation places, drew against each other and Victoria Clarholz and TuS Bövinghausen, the teams directly ahead of SGW, also lost their games, Wattenscheid hardly lost any ground in the fight to avoid relegation.
Nevertheless, Wattenscheid coach Engin Yavuzaslan was on a 180 after the game, although his anger was not directed at his players, who ultimately had no chance against the tough visitors from Siegen, but at his own supporters. More precisely, at some of the fans.
When Yavuzaslan and his team wanted to thank the Wattenscheid fans among the 830 spectators in the Lohrheide for their support at the fence, one fan asked him what had happened against Siegen. Wattenscheid’s coach didn’t like that at all. And probably also disrespectful towards the team
You really have to keep your head down

“What’s going on? What’s going on?” Yavuzaslan repeated the fan’s questions to Forecasting. And gave the right answer straight away: “What’s going on? We haven’t won a game here for 449 days. Now we’ve won three games in a row. You have to keep the ball a little flat,” said the SGW coach. “I have to be honest about that. I put myself in front of my team. If they had given up listlessly here and thrown in the towel, I could totally understand that. But they didn’t do that. That’s why I was very pleased. “
Then he added: “You really have to keep your head down. Not all of them were. But there’s always one or two of them. I don’t know what they’re thinking. That we now win every game here at home 5:0, 6:0 or 7:0? Then let’s open our eyes a bit: That’s not the case. We still have to work on our soccer here.”
And that’s exactly what he will continue to do with his team
