Marcel Rapp, Holstein Kiel manager, faces the relegation dogfight without a care. "Ain't no fear here," Rapp confidently stated on the eve of the high-stakes SK Freiburg clash on Saturday (3:30 PM/Sky). "We ain't got nothing to lose, just got everything to gain," he added. The Schleswig-Holstein outfit, currently in the danger zone, is only one point adrift of the 16th place promotion-relegation playoff spot.
After their recent triumphs over Borussia Mönchengladbach and Augsburg, Kiel has the wind in its sails, and Rapp is brimming with optimism. "We're on a roll," he enthused. "For a while, no one would've thought we'd have a shot at staying up, but we're still in this," he continued.
Rapp's buoyant approach to the battle against the drop sets him apart from many managers in a similar predicament. His team comes to the game with glee, not trepidation, an advantage he believes may tip the scales in their favor.
Shuto Machino, Kiel's injured striker continues to be a concern. The Japanese forward, who has been training alone, is expected to be fit for the showdown with the Champions League hopefuls.
Rapp's seemingly laid-back approach belies his strategic acumen. Despite suffering injuries, the team has consistently shown resilience, with other players stepping up to the plate. His willingness to switch Thomas Dähne into the goal post has proven pivotal, exhibiting his adaptability in crucial matches.
Rapp's philosophy is simple: focus on performance, not results. His approach has kept morale high, even in the face of setbacks. Moreover, by exploiting opportunities created by their rivals' misfortunes, they've managed to keep their playoff hopes alive, a testament to their fighting spirit.
With two games left in the season, it remains to be seen whether Rapp's gamble pays off. But one thing's for sure: Holstein Kiel has captured the hearts of Bundesliga fans with their spirited efforts to beat the drop.
