“I don’t want to say that this is the worst possible accident. But of course it’s difficult.”, the HBL managing director told the German Press Agency.
Bohmann: “Be very careful”
“There may be other cases of Corona in the team. It remains to be seen whether it makes sense to nominate more and more,” said Bohman. “Then you have to be very careful and not say I’m making it much worse than it is. If there are any more outbreaks, then we have a new situation.”
Seven German players have now tested positive for Corona at the European Championships in the team hotel in Bratislava. Although the source of the infection is unclear, national coach Alfred Gislason reacted promptly and on Monday evening nominated five Bundesliga professionals around veteran goalkeeper Johannes Bitter for the final preliminary round game on Tuesday (01/18/22, in the live ticker on Sportschau.de) against Poland. Bohmann views the subsequent nominations with skepticism.
