"I just found out about the accident. A vehicle came flying, several parts hit the bus. Fortunately, none of our team was injured. We will now distribute the players on minibuses and continue our journey to Nuremberg for the game on Friday." Aue President Helge Leonhardt said the picture.
According to the new press, the two occupants of the car were slightly injured, the team got away with the terror. "The players are of course in shock. The bus is still coming to the workshop today. We will then try to organise another bus for the return trip from Nuremberg," said Aue managing director Michael Voigt the picture.
