Who will enter the footsteps of Manuel Neuer and Marc-André Ter Stegen in the German national team? In the new year, Freiburg’s Noah Atubolu (22) and Augsburg’s Finn Dahmen (27) draw two potential candidates, both of whom have set up a new club record for the longest series without conceding a goal. After Atubolu had to grab back after 609 minutes on the penultimate matchday, Dahmen’s series now ended at 638 minutes.
“I think the statistics are impressive. I’m a bit proud of it,” said Dahmen after the 1-1 at TSG Hoffenheim in the “current sports studio”. However, Andrej Kramaric’s penalty hit was a wrong decision in the 71st minute, as the DFB admitted. Augsburg’s captain Jeffrey Gouweleeuw got a deflected ball from a short distance. It was “very shame” that the video assistant did not contact Referee Tobias Reichel, said Dahmen. The keeper had last time a goal at the beginning of January at the 1-1 against St. Pauli – team -mate Noahkai Banks defeated him at the time.
Timo Hildebrand (Stuttgart, 885 minutes), Oliver Kahn (Bavaria, 805), Manuel Neuer (Bavaria, 771), Koen Casteels (Wolfsburg, 674), Oliver Reck (Bremen, 641) Tim Wiese (Bremen, 620) and Uli Stein (Hamburg, 603) also remained ten hours without a goal in the Bundesliga. The two Bayern-Keephern Neuer and Kahn have already achieved this feat several times. Newly broke the ten-hour mark three times, Kahn twice.
