MTV Gifhorn wins, but injury to Youngster Bahr throws shadows!

The game began with a clear overweight of the Gifhorn, who, however, had difficulty playing clear chances. Goalkeeper Merlin Thiel, who showed a solid performance, prevented several dangerous counterattacks from Lamme. After all, it was Jovan Hoffart who scored 1-0 in the 42nd minute with a courageous movement. The game picture remained dominated by Gifhorn even after half -time, while the offensive still had problems. Alex Geiner, who only came into play in the final phase, provided the decision in the 88th minute with his header to 2-0

Prevention of injury in focus

The violation of Bahr throws a light on the high demands that football places on the athletes. Speed, strength and endurance are required, but unfortunately also risky. Statistics show that most accidents in football happen in club sport. Around 7 million footballers in Germany are affected, with a significant part of the injuries in the area of the lower extremities. This includes about 27 % injuries to the knee and more than 18 % on the ankle. This underlines the importance of injury prevention programs to reduce the risk, especially in the preparation season.

Current scientific knowledge show that effective prevention measures, such as neuromuscular training, can contribute significantly to the reduction in injury. Programs such as FIFA 11+ have proven themselves and reduce both the risk and the severity of injuries in the lower extremity. In addition, aspects such as nutrition and fluid intake play a crucial role in injury prevention and increase in performance. Other outstanding programs, such as the PEP program or exercises such as the Nordic Hamstring CURL, should be an integral part in training.

The next steps for MTV Gifhorn

Trainer Rings knows that the regeneration is now the top priority for its players. "We only have a small squad available, in the next week some players will have to play in unusual positions," he says. The next game is already on Sunday against SV Arminia Hannover, where you can hope that the team can then fall back on all players.

With a solid idea and the will to win, the team could go into the next game with a positive feeling and at the same time draw valuable teachings from the latest experiences. Rings and his team will not only have to concentrate on the use and performance of the players, but also increasingly on injury prevention through suitable measures to optimize the return and maintenance in training.
