This fits in with Rapid’s failed German debut: the more dominant half of the season was followed by two low hits, and the day after the 1-1 draw at Hartburg, it was a disgrace. First the cries of pain from Leo Gremmel, then compensated by the last movement in the 97th minute.
Ironically, Gremmel, a newcomer at Hütteldorf, was diagnosed with a ruptured cruciate ligament at 15 weeks after his 23rd game. The MRI should definitely show fear Monday evening. The 20-year-old fan needs an operation.
joint return?
The failure of the center back for at least six months leaves its mark on Rapid. “The Lion has never lay flat. We will miss him as a person and as a player,” stressed Didi Kohbauer. The coach hopes to get back together: “I am sure he will come back stronger.” During rehabilitation, the issue of extending the expired contract must also be viewed from a different angle.
Zoran Barisic said: “The whole club with all our fans agree with Leo. He embodies all the quick virtues and because of his attitude I am convinced that he will be even better after his return.” The sporting director hopes to extend the contract: “I hope he plays more matches with Rapid beyond the current season.”
