Munich (dpa/lby) – Without captain Stefan Lex, TSV 1860 Munich returned to the training pitch on Grünwalder Straße about a month after the last league game. The 33-year-old offensive player contracted lumbago and had to skip the first session of the third division soccer team on Monday. The Erdinger had already missed three games in the first half of the season due to thigh problems. According to information from the “Münchner Abendzeitung”, managing director Günther Gorenzel was absent on Monday due to a corona infection.
In glorious wintry weather, trainer Michael Köllner continued the recently threatened promotion mission. After just one point from the past four games, the “Lions” have fallen from second to sixth place in the table. On January 14, the Sechzger want to finally end their earnings crisis at Waldhof Mannheim. Köllner still enjoys the trust of the club’s management. On Friday, Munich will test against 1. FC Nürnberg.
