Wolfsburg (AP) - After a 1-0 win against VfB Stuttgart, coach Oliver Glasner from VfL Wolfsburg praised his team, which had been weakened by five quarantine cases, in the highest tones.

“I have to and would like to give the team a huge compliment today.

It was a complicated 24 hours for everyone at the club, especially the players.

How they dealt with it, how they presented themselves as a unit, that inspired me, »said the Austrian on Sunday evening.

VfL had to forego five players against Stuttgart for a short time: Maximilian Arnold and Jerome Roussillon tested positive for the corona virus, Maximilian Philipp, Xaver Schlager and Tim Siersleben were classified as direct contacts.

After consulting the health department, the trio went into domestic isolation as a precaution.

The fact that the game was still allowed to take place while the second division game between the Würzburger Kickers and FC St. Pauli was canceled last Wednesday after only one corona case within the Würzburg function team was a decision by the health department.

«I think that every health department decides on the basis of the regulations and looks at the situation very carefully.

As an association, we accept this 100 percent and fully support it, ”said Glasner.
