After two positive tests, the team cannot train or participate in the next round. DFL chief Seifert still wants to continue with plans for the restart of the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga.
The Dynamo Dresden quarantine case is already ruining early plans to restart the 1st and 2nd Bundesliga. Although the bottom-of-the-table team cannot play or train for two weeks after two other positive crown tests, the German Football League does not currently see a lower house restart in jeopardy. “If Dresden is now quarantined for 14 days, that’s no reason to question the continuation of the second division entirely,” DFL managing director Christian Seifert said Saturday night at the “Current Sports Studio” in ZDF.
“Only two of the 81 games are affected. It is clear that there is certainly a size, and at some point it will no longer be possible,” said the 51-year-old. Seifert declined to name a number when asked. It also depends on when something like this would happen.
The news of the domestic quarantine for the entire team, the coaching and supervising body of the last Dynamo Dresden table reached Seifert on Saturday afternoon. The health department responsible for the Saxon capital ordered the entire quarantine after the team of coaches Markus Kauczinski had only returned to team training since Thursday and had completed two units “in full contact.”
“It was perfectly clear that this could happen”
The concept of resuming play, which should take place in a week, only provided a quarantine for the player who tested positive for Sars-CoV-2. Seifert stated at ZDF that it had always been emphasized that local health authorities would make the decisions. If other offices made the same decisions as the people of Dresden, that would be the case, Seifert said. It was the third series of tests for dynamo players, coaches and coaches. The first had had a positive test.
The association did not name names with reference to privacy. The two who now tested positive had not been medically notable in the past few days and are currently symptom free.
“In recent weeks, we have made a tremendous effort in terms of personnel and logistics to strictly implement all prescribed medical and hygienic measures,” emphasized Ralf Minge, managing director of Dynamos Sport: “We are in contact with the responsible health department and the DFL to coordinate all the additional steps. ” The Dresden team’s game on May 17 at Hannover 96 cannot take place initially, as can the home game the following weekend against SpVgg Greuther Fürth. Discussions about possible competitive disadvantages due to domestic quarantine while rivals play and train should now resume.
Seifert announced conversations with all second division clubs in the next week at ZDF. “Currently we are not changing the goal, just the plans,” said the DFL boss, who was not surprised by such a situation: “I did not interpret this as a setback. It was completely clear that this could happen.”
