TSG's manager changed the whole team during the interval. Before half time, goals from Anthony Modeste and new signing Pirmin Schwegler put TSG into a 3-0 lead.

Just four minutes after half time, Sebastian Rudy increased the score to 4-0 with a free kick from almost 30 yards, before Tarik Elyounoussi added a fifth 15 minutes later (5-0).

TSG then took their foot off the gas a little for around quarter of an hour, but shortly before the end of the match, there was a flurry of goals. Adam Szalai, Roberto Firmino and Nadiem Amiri ensured a final score of 8-0 with three goals in a matter of only a few minutes.

Markus Gisdol was delighted with his team: “You can see the tiredness in the players following the training camp, but it was a decent performance for the first friendly.”
