Midfielder Maximilian Eggestein was reminded of another heavy defeat for Baden after SC Freiburg’s smack at VfB Stuttgart.
With the 0: 6 at VfL Wolfsburg last January, you have already received a similarly surprising setback, said the 26-year-old. The SC then went as far as the Europa League.
At VfB, Freiburg lost 0:5 (0:3) on Saturday. “We have to make sure that it remains an isolated case,” said Eggestein with a view to the rest of the Bundesliga season.
“Very, very bitter” was the defeat, said Eggestein’s teammate Vincenzo Grifo. “It hurts extremely.” Freiburg’s start was “not that bad at all,” said the offensive man. But the first three goals conceded should not have “happened like that”.
After two wins on the first two days of the game, Freiburg suffered their first setback. For Stuttgart it was the highest win in a competitive game against SC so far.
