Hertha BSC before the winter break: Clear commitment from captain Leistner!

After a disappointing 0-0 draw against Hanover on December 22, when Hertha BSC missed the chance to go to winter training with a win, the team of coach Cristian fell in a worrying situation. Despite an outnumbering on the square, the team was unable to overcome its performance problems and remains in the disappointing twelfth place in the table in the 2nd Bundesliga. Captain Toni Leistner was aimed at the fans via Instagram: "The football year 2024 was not satisfactory for everyone. Let us continue to form a unit together and rock the football year 2025," says the defensive chief, who emphasizes the importance of the common struggle and asks the fans for support, as Berlin Live reported.

After the recent defeat against Prussia Münster, the captain criticized: "The same mistakes always happen."
