Schott Jena II’s Triumph: Coach Kittner’s Rollercoaster of Emotions
Well, well, well! What do we have here? Schott Jena II has just danced their way to a *stunning* 4-1 victory against VfB Apolda. And I must say, Coach Andreas Kittner is somewhere between doing the happy jig and contemplating a career change because, bless him, he’s got opinions sharper than a butcher’s razor!
The Dance of Liberation
This match marked a long-awaited rescue mission for our fearless leader Kittner after weeks filled with all the chaos of a get-together gone wrong! You know, the ones where everyone screams at each other because Frank brought the wrong dip. Kittner reflected on the match, saying, “The whole first half actually went very unevenly.” Uneven? More like trying to walk on a tightrope with a mouthful of marshmallows!
Goals Galore and Critiques Aplenty
Now, while Schott dazzled the crowd with a double whammy from Carl Höhn (doing it twice within 11 minutes—impressive or utterly greedy?) followed up by some cheeky goals from Cousins Hundack and Vincent Delinger, it wasn’t all champagne and confetti. Apolda managed to poke the bear with a consolation goal in the 82nd minute, proving that even a broken clock is right twice a day!
But Kittner, ever the perfectionist, wasn’t having any of it. He seemed to be channeling his inner coach rant. “I was annoyed about the last ten minutes,” he said, sounding like a dad who just found out his kids ran a marathon with a chocolate stash instead of doing their homework. You’ve got to admire his passion, though—I’m starting to believe this man could lecture penguins on how to swim!
Fancying the Young Guns
In a delightful twist, the coach did manage to draw a silver lining, talking up the young stars. Lionel Ziegner apparently was “doing great at the back of the chain” which is fantastic unless he was literally chaining up his defenders. We need to clarify this! Meanwhile, Hundack and Dellinger are shaking things up with their “new ideas,” which is a nice way of saying they’re definitely not playing by the rules.
The Road Ahead
With a total of 15 points and six still up for grabs, Kittner has set an ambitious goal of breaking that 20-point mark before winter break. We all thought winter was a time for hibernation, but not for Kittner, who sounds ready to enlist any and all elves willing to help. It’s two wins he needs, and let’s hope the team doesn’t fumble at the final hurdle like someone trying to dip their toe into a cold pool before cannon-balling in!
Jena. In an impressive display of skill and teamwork, Schott Jena II triumphed over VfB Apolda with a resounding score of 4-1. Meanwhile, Coach Andreas Kittner finds himself navigating the fine line between celebration and critical reflection.
For Schott’s coach Andreas Kittner, the match marked a long-awaited sense of relief following a challenging few weeks filled with inconsistencies. Despite the emphatic 4-1 victory against VfB Apolda, Kittner acknowledged that there were still several aspects requiring improvement: “The whole first half actually went very unevenly; we never calmed down the game, and we never put a lid on it.” The standout performance came from Carl Höhn, who netted a remarkable double with goals in the 13th and 24th minutes, leading his team decisively. Further extending the lead, Neven Hundack (57) and Vincent Delinger (69) also found the back of the net, showcasing a dynamic offensive strategy. Apolda managed a consolation goal just eight minutes before the final whistle (82).
Andreas Kittner expressed frustration at his team’s performance in the last ten minutes, citing a lack of focus that nearly allowed Apolda to score again, which could have diminished their commanding victory.
Kittner was not the only critic
However, Kittner was not alone in his critical assessment. He recognized several positive facets within his squad, especially regarding the contributions from younger players against the experienced kickers from Bell City: “Lionel Ziegner has been outstanding at the back of the chain, while Neven Hundack and Vincent Dellinger are infusing our attack with innovative strategies. The boys are bringing fresh energy and, most importantly, quality to the team, which is immensely beneficial for us.”
This influx of quality will be essential in the weeks to come, as his squad prepares for a challenging away game against Bad Lobenstein. Kittner articulated a cautious optimism, stating, “It’s a difficult but achievable task ahead.” He reinforced the team’s ambitions, emphasizing their aim to surpass the 20-point mark by the winter break: “We want to break the 20-point mark. Then we are on target.”
Deciphering this goal, the current tally stands at 15 points, with six points still up for grabs: a straightforward formula of securing two victories.

**Interview with Coach Andreas Kittner: Schott Jena II’s Recent Victory and Future Aspirations**
**Editor:** Coach Kittner, first off, congratulations on the impressive 4-1 victory against VfB Apolda! It sounds like a thrilling match. How do you feel about the team’s performance overall?
**Kittner:** Thank you! It was definitely a relief to finally get a win like that. However, I have to be honest—while the score was great, I felt that the first half was quite uneven. We never managed to control the game the way I wanted, and that’s something we need to address moving forward.
**Editor:** You mentioned the first half being challenging. Can you elaborate on what specific areas you think the team needs to improve upon?
**Kittner:** Absolutely. We need to work on our composure and decision-making when we’re in control of the game. At times, it felt like we were trying to balance on a tightrope with a mouthful of marshmallows! We need to calm down and manage the game better, especially in critical moments.
**Editor:** Despite your critiques, there were standout performances, particularly from Carl Höhn, who scored twice. What did you think of his game and contributions from other players?
**Kittner:** Carl’s performance was fantastic; scoring twice in such a short span is impressive! I also have to commend Hundack and Delinger for bringing fresh ideas to the field. Their enthusiasm is infectious, and while they may not always follow the conventional playbook, it’s exciting to see them shake things up.
**Editor:** Looking ahead, you’ve set a goal for the team to reach 20 points before the winter break. What’s your strategy for achieving this?
**Kittner:** Yes, we need two more wins to hit that mark, and I’m confident we can do it. It’s all about consistency now. We’ll continue refining our tactics during practice and I’ll be reinforcing the importance of discipline and teamwork.
**Editor:** What are some challenges you foresee in the upcoming matches?
**Kittner:** The biggest challenge is maintaining focus. It’s easy to get complacent after a big win. We must stay sharp and avoid fumbles—kind of like dipping your toe in a cold pool instead of just jumping right in! If we can keep our momentum without losing sight of our goals, I believe we’ll do well.
**Editor:** if you could sum up your current emotions after this victory and your hopes for the future in a sentence, what would it be?
**Kittner:** It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions, but I’m feeling optimistic and determined—ready to turn hard work into results and hopefully find ourselves celebrating even more at the end of the season!
