This is bitter! Arminia Bielefeld is back in the Red Zone after relegations from League One and League Two – this time after Matchday 6 in the 3rd Division.
Second division relegated Arminia Bielefeld is also on a downward slide in the 3rd Football League. Coach Michel Kniat’s team slipped to a relegation spot after a 0:2 (0:1) loss to the previously winless second team of SC Freiburg on Saturday.
After six matchdays and only one win in the derby against Preußen Münster (4:0), the East Westphalians have only five points on their account.
Fabian Klos – the striker was the only player to stay after the second division relegation – said after the latest setback: “Of course we are aware of the situation and know the table, but we still have to put that aside a bit. The team is too close together for me to worry too much. But that was too little for points today – we know that.”
There were also whistles for the first time this season on the Alm. Coach Michel Kniat pointed out, however, that these did not come from the fans, the south stand. He told “Magenta TV”: “We know where they are coming from. Namely not from the fan block.”
Kniat, who moved to the Bielefeld Alm from SC Verl in the summer, commented on the defeat: “We didn’t get into our game in the first half. The first defeat here at home is extremely painful. In the second half, we gave it everything we had, but in the end, the defeat was okay. We were running too much behind.” wozi with dpa
