SC Freiburg: Booster vaccination before Christmas

SC Freiburg uses the short winter break for the booster vaccination against the coronavirus for its professionals.

“We’ll do it right after the last game,” said coach Christian Streich on Friday: “It’s important to do it on time.” The Breisgauers play their last game of the year on December 19th against Bayer Leverkusen, in the new year it continues on January 8th against Arminia Bielefeld.

In the league game on Sunday (5.30 p.m. in the live ticker) at Borussia Mönchengladbach, the sports club can hope for a comeback from striker Nils Petersen. “It could well be that he will call,” said Streich about the 32-year-old, who had missed the last four point games due to knee problems: “But we also have to make sensible decisions.” A decision about a place in the squad should not be made until Saturday.
