Lions Frankfurt Struggle in Season Opener, New Sports Director Jan Barta Looks Ahead

The DEL club Lions Frankfurt faced a tough start to the season, suffering a heavy 1:9 loss against the Ice Bears Wolfsburg. In an exclusive interview with Sonja Pahl, the new sports director of the Lions, Jan Barta, spoke candidly about the challenging situation the team finds itself in.

Barta compared the major defeat to a flat tire, stating that one per season is acceptable but repeats can't happen. He acknowledged the heavy impact of the loss on himself and the Lions, but remained optimistic about the season, emphasising that it is still young.

The Lions are focusing on improving their basics, as per Barta's statement. He discussed the strategic decisions he has made as sports director and stressed the importance of learning from experiences like the loss against Wolfsburg.

Following the loss, the Lions are under immediate pressure. However, their reaction against Straubing on Sunday was better, despite a loss due to an unlucky penalty. Barta expects the Lions to show their quality against Dresden in their next match.

Despite the tough start, Barta has a vision for the path he wants to take with the Lions. He is working closely with the coach currently working with the Lions Frankfurt, who spoke in the FFH Sport-Talk about the team's challenges, albeit not explicitly named in the provided search results.

Barta concluded by stressing the importance of learning from their experiences and improving their basics. He remains hopeful for the future of the Lions and is determined to guide them through this challenging period.
