Gelsenkirchen (AP) - The Schalke soccer professional Mark Uth is making further progress just a few days after his head injury.
«He was already back in the video analysis for the game against Freiburg today.
He makes a good mental and physical impression, ”said Schalke's coach Manuel Baum on Tuesday.
Uth had suffered a concussion after a bad clash with his opponent in the duel two days earlier with FC Augsburg (2: 2) and was hospitalized.
«He was there with a lot of energy and a positive attitude.
That helps us all to process it, ”commented Baum.
How long the 29-year-old offensive player will have to pause, the coach left open.
“How things will go on with him is difficult to say.
Head injuries shouldn't be taken lightly. "
Despite the great progress made, Baum advised Uth against visiting the stadium on Wednesday (6.30 p.m.) in the game against Freiburg: "I would rather tell him to fire us up from home and take a rest."

Despite all the frustration over the unfortunate last-minute goal to make it 2-2 in Augsburg, Baum rated his team's performance as progress: "We don't allow ourselves to be pulled down by such blows in the neck, we pull ourselves out again."
The coach of the bottom of the table is in good spirits that the series of 27 Bundesliga games without a win is coming to an end: “We are getting closer to the three-pointers from game to game.
From my point of view, the trend is going in the right direction, that it will soon be the case that we knock over the buck.
Ahmed Kutucu could fix the bottleneck on the offensive caused by the failure of Uth.
«Ahmed returned to training last week and makes a good impression.
He would be an option for the starting XI.
He will definitely be in the squad, »said Baum.
