Previous Freiburg football club professional athlete expresses escalation of conflicts: same as before

In a surprising turn of events, Nils Petersen, the former football national player and record goalscorer of SC Freiburg, has started his Kreisliga adventure with Sportfreunde Oberried this season.

Despite the early meeting time of 11:15 am, Petersen revealed he was as nervous as he used to be before the game. The veteran striker, who ended his active professional career in the spring of 2023, seemed satisfied with his performance but expressed his goal is to score goals.

Petersen played his debut match against the reserve team of FC Freiburg St.-Georgen in Kreisliga B. Although he did not score any goals himself, he assisted in a goal and earned a penalty in the 2:2 draw.

The former Olympian, who won a silver medal in the 2016 Olympics, was surprised by the atmosphere of the game. His new teammates eased his integration, despite making occasional jokes.

Reports suggest that Petersen has been the recipient of "malicious calls" from other small clubs in the region. However, the specific names of these clubs are not mentioned in the available sources. No information about malicious calls from the competition was provided in the text.

Petersen's commitment to Sportfreunde Oberried was facilitated by a teammate. He stated that the early meeting time has the advantage that one still has something left of the day afterwards and can watch football.

Petersen expressed a desire to play regularly, without causing a stir. He had many questions about the details of his Kreisliga adventure, such as the color of training clothes and meal times. Despite the high expectations, Petersen seems to be enjoying his new challenge and is looking forward to contributing to the team's success.
