This afternoon, head coach Christian Gross set up a technical course of cones, hurdles, poles and dummy players on the training pitch. Subsequently, Serdar Tasci, Sami Khedira, Steffano Celozzi and Christian Träsch went through the programme at each station. After the rest of the team had finished the morning training session, the young quartet, who had been in action very regularly in recent weeks, went through the special course.
"The structure simply fits"
"We are working very hard and training is very intensive. Everyone is giving his all - the structure simply fits! We can afford to rest upon the successes we've had recently, we need to continue concentrating on what needs to be done. We can't allow for any slackening but instead we must continue to stabilise," said Sami Khedira at the end of the session.
