FC Energie Cottbus: Commitment despite defeat in the friendly against Ried!

Cottbus, Deutschland - The second day in the FC Energie Cottbus training camp started early. Already at 7:30 a.m. the players gathered for breakfast together, which, according to the information from fc Energie , took about an hour. At 10:00 a.m. we went on the training ground on time. Despite the rainy weather, which was about 17 degrees, the motivation of the team remained unbroken. After a short warming, playing forms, walking paths, pass combinations and goal finishes were on the plan. The training lasted about an hour and was only the start for an exciting day.

In the evening, a test game against the Austrian first division club SV Oberbank Ried was scheduled. The journey to Ried took almost an hour and a half. While the weather at the training location was rather cloudy, Ried showed his best side, with sunshine and higher temperatures. The lawn was in excellent condition, which provided a varied game. The Cottbus team presented itself in front of around 1,400 spectators and in the first half came through a goal from Erik Engelhardt after preparatory work by Henry Rorig to 1-1 to equalize after Ried took the lead.

game course and knowledge

The match was a real thriller. In the 31st minute, Mark Grosse Ried brought the lead before Engelhardt achieved the equalization in 41st. In the second half, an unfortunate moment brought the Cottbuser out of the beat: newcomer Justin Butler had to leave the field, which significantly impaired the game flow. In this phase, Ried took the lead again by Antonio van Wyk, who walved in the 63rd minute after a ball loss in midfield. In the end, Cottbus had to give up 1: 2. But the trainers and responsible pointed out that the experiences and knowledge gained from the game were worth more than the result itself.

training in the focus

A successful training camp is crucial for teams such as FC Energie Cottbus to lay the basics for the coming season. According to Football hub , a structured training plan is in the foreground. This should include hard training units, regeneration phases and team building elements. Nutrition, fitness and mental preparation are central aspects that can decide on success.

In order to strengthen the collaboration in a team, social activities are also important, so that players not only harmonize on the pitch, but also outside. The training camp, supplemented by daily reporting of FCENGIETV and support from Travdo Hotels, offers the players the opportunity to fully concentrate on their performance. After the test game, the evening ended with a common dinner and lively conversations in the lobby before going to bed. The team is motivated to achieve the goals set in the course of the training camp and to prepare for the coming season.
