Energie Cottbus coach demands more courage ahead of Augsburg match

Energie Cottbus coach Claus-Dieter Wollitz has called for more courage and aggression from his players ahead of their DFB-Pokal first-round match against Bundesliga side FC Augsburg.

Wollitz expressed concern over the team's recent lack of dynamism and offensive output, noting that the squad has failed to create a single scoring chance in their last two matches. Despite a recent win against Hannover, the coach criticized the team's passivity and lack of harmony compared to previous months.

Wollitz emphasized the need for the team to return to the competitive DNA that defined them over the last three years, stating that such passivity cannot become the team's standard.
