That is his “life’s work”, resulting in Siegfried Dietrich has also in the past few weeks, as the end of the FFC Frankfurt came as a pure women’s football club getting closer and closer, never a secret made. The 22-year-long Era, which was marked in the first few years of a lot of success and in the last decade of a culture change within the club, came at the unfortunate home defeat (0:2) against SC Freiburg to an end. A result that is not reflected necessarily in the course of the game, but the need for the merger with Eintracht Frankfurt has shown.
So much Potential and the game wit the team proves again and again: There was a lack of maturity and playful class, in order to fulfil its own claim to play again in the medium term internationally.
the occurrence That the FFC women sometimes compelling and “hectic” as it is formulated coach Niko Arnautis, at the same time, was not a new finding in the stadium at the Brentanobad. However, the last official game as a pure women’s football club, especially in the light of a final assessment of the past: the rise in the world’s top professionalization of women’s football, Champions League title and significantly higher social visibility – the merits and successes of the FFC should be for the last Time in a nostalgic manner, and celebrated the effort, even if the “big Party” could not take place due to the Corona-crisis in the Form of how the long-time companions would have liked.

that’s why Dietrich made it clear before the game that the result on that day was secondary. He regards “the greatest possible gratitude for what we were able to move in the women’s football”. Melancholy was therefore not the dominant feeling, as Dietrich puts it: “Even if our name changes: the FFC will live in unity more.”
