Not only Stuttgart's sports director Sven Mislint is swarming when he speaks of Sosa's left foot or the flank, which sends it into the opposing penalty area and preferably on the head of SASA Kalajdzic. The Kroat is respected and dreaded whether these qualities, which alone Pellegrino Matarazzo does not want to be satisfied. The Stuttgart coach expects the next development step. And this includes that Sosa once even promotes the ball into the net. As with the 6-0 at the BFC Dynamo in the first DFB trunk round last weekend.

Sosa's goalkeeping can be place in the homeopathic area. With regard to our own hits, the meanwhile 23-year-old has not become really much more striking in his profile lounge. In his home for Dynamo Zagreb not at all, in the jersey of the VFB Stuttgart only twice: at 6: 0 in the Cup and in the season 2019/20 in the 2nd league on 16 December 2019 at 1: 1 in Darmstadt. In 38 Bundesliga games, the Kroat has hitherto left empty. That should change now.

The 2: 0 before the break at the BFC is a good starting point, finds Matarazzo. "Borna did his gate. That's important for me because I do not want him to deliver templates, but that he also meets himself," says the VFB coach, who has already set an individual training focus in the preparation. "We want him to become more punishable."
