Fink puts Frankfurt on the spot
Posted Tuesday, May 14, 2013 by Foxsports.com
Hamburg coach Thorsten Fink has started the mind games ahead of the final weekend of the season by insisting the pressure is on Eintracht Frankfurt.
Frankfurt lie two points ahead of Hamburg and, taking into account their significantly superior goal difference compared to their rivals, realistically need just a draw from their final game against Wolfsburg to clinch sixth spot.
Hamburg, meanwhile, need to beat Bayer Leverkusen to stand any chance of snatching a place in the Europa League.
Despite the odds being against his side, Fink is in bullish mood heading into the final round.
"We have a lot to gain, but nothing to lose," he is quoted as saying in the Bild newspaper.
"Frankfurt need to get at least a draw against Wolfsburg and that is psychologically difficult.
"For us, the situation is easier. Furthermore, Wolfsburg are no easy opponents at the moment."
Defender Marcell Jansen added: "We've got to do our own job first and win this tough game."
