A big surprise came Wednesday night in FC Augsburg's friendly against second-division English side Middlesbrough FC. It was not that the FCA won 2-1 (1-0) at the end, but that Caiuby was back on the bench and was also involved after 70 minutes. The Brazilian extended his home leave on his own, missed the first training camp at Mals and has been training only since the middle of last week. The 30-year-old was then fined five digits.

However, the FCA coach, Manuel Baum, did not want to be too ruthless: "He's done very well lately, but at the same time he has to do extra strikes in So now he will not get four days off over the weekend like most other players, but then he has to be good again. "

This new Julian Schieber signature would not play against Middlesbrough, FCA coach Manuel Baum had already planned. In fact, he wanted to balance the load of the attacker, but now Hertha BSC's new signature will be longer. The 29-year-old was operated on Wednesday morning on the left knee. At the Hessingpark Clinic, he had to remove a free joint body. In the test against the Würzburger Kickers (2-0) Schieber had scored his first goal for the FCA, after which he complained of pain in his damaged knee.

"He had a bad feeling Sunday, we were still hoping Monday, it's not that bad, but during the day we learned that something was broken," Baum said. "It's not that bad, but it will probably take four to six weeks." Schieber will miss the start of the Bundesliga on August 25 at Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Fredrik Jensen plays well against Middlesbrough

However, the FCA professionals, who played the first half against Middlesbrough on Wednesday, could well hope. Because they were clearly more alert than their colleagues against Würzburg. Thus, the English were disturbed at the beginning of the construction, and in possession of the ball was trying to change quickly. With the most remarkable Fredrik Jensen on the left wing.

Still in the first goal of Daniel Baier (36th), he played an important role. He brought a good shot Michael Gregoritsch in position, whose flank missed André Hahn initially, but Daniel Baier concluded with a gag with his left foot successfully. It's under the eyes of former Bayern player Franz "Bulle" Roth, 72, who ran a sports shop in Bad Wörishofen until April, a deserved advance. For the English, who beat SV Sandhausen 1-0 on Saturday, only appeared one time before the half-time whistled dangerously by FCA goalkeeper Andreas Luthe

Caiuby could also run

Coach Baum in the half-time break on major staff changes. Nevertheless, the game changed initially. The British lobbied, but the FCA reacted perfectly. A quick counterattack against Michael Gregoritsch and Marcel Heller Andre Hahn closed for 2: 0 (61). To the delight of coach Baum: "Until then I had the impression that André imposed a backpack too big.But you saw today. "As the processes improve and improve, I'm in a good mood." The 2-0 was the preliminary decision in an entertaining game. Shortly after, Baum completely emptied the replacement bench. Caiuby was allowed to play as well. The goal of Lewis Wing (87th) came too late.

FC Augsburg: Luthe – Asta (46th Heller), Gouweleeuw (70th Callsen-Bracker), Hinteregger (70th Danso), Max (70th Janker) – Khedira, Baier (70th Teigl) – Schmid, Jensen (46th Rieder), Hahn (70th Framberger) – Gregoritsch (70th Caiuby).
