Quarantined Streich admits he doesn’t know how to watch the game at home

Speaking remotely from his COVID quarantine, SC Freiburg trainer Christian Streich assured members of the German footballing press that the team would be fine without him during Thursday’s Europa League showdown against FC Nantes. 

One can assume that, after the 57-year-old admitted that he didn’t know which German streaming service would be carrying the match, those associated with the club have gotten him signed up for “RTL+”.

Midfielder Nicolas Höfler was present live at the presser.

“Of course we’ll miss the coach witt the way he pushes us on from the sidelines and in the locker room,” Höfler said, “but we want to show as a team that we have the quality to win games like this without him through our conviction on the pitch. We’re on a hot streak and can keep it up.”

Streich insisted that he wouldn’t be interfering too much in proceedings tonight, emphasizing that “those in the stadium are more important.” Humorously enough, Streich admitted that he didn’t know which German streaming service offered the Europa League. Presumably, by now, those associated with the club have gotten their head-coach signed up for RTL+

The 57-year-old did express the hope that he could rejoin the team in time for the reverse fixture next week against FC Nantes.

“I really hope so,” The SCF coach noted when asked about the prospect, “I’ve never been to Nantes, I really want to go there.”
