Thomas Mair: “I don’t regret the step for a second”

After a dream season with 15 goals in 19 games, Mair moved to the state capital in the summer from his hometown club Schenna, for whom he had also successfully scored goals in the 1st and 2nd amateur leagues. After initial difficulties, the attacker now seems to be gaining more and more of a foothold at Virtus. After Mair scored his first Serie D goal against Este two weeks ago, he made his starting XI debut just a few days later at Ambrosiana. “I have found my way around very well now and feel more and more comfortable. The team welcomed me very well from the start. But I had a lot to learn. “Especially in tactical and technical terms,” Mair said in a telephone conversation SportNews . Mair raves about football teacher Sebastiani Training under Alfredo Sebastiani in particular was a total change for him. “Because I concentrated more on badminton as a youth, I missed important years in football. For example, learning the basic technique. Sebastiani is a teacher and perfectionist in this regard. I have learned a huge amount in this area in the last six months. He goes into the smallest details. That helped me enormously.” Mair is convinced that he has already matured into a better player in these six months and has also learned a lot from Sebastiani in a human sense. When asked how relieved he was after his first goal, he replied: “As a striker, you are of course ultimately judged by the goals. I was very relieved, also because you invest a lot. I'm on the soccer field an average of 1 times a week. This goal gave me a lot of confidence and confirmed that I am on the right path and just have to keep working hard.” “This challenge simply appealed to me.” Thomas Mair on his move to Virtus According to Mair, the time commitment in particular is much greater in Serie D than, for example, in the national league or in the 1st amateur league. “But I’ve always enjoyed working on myself. This challenge simply appealed to me. So far I haven't regretted it for a second, even though I have to work hard for every minute I use. The squad is simply enormous,” said Mair, who definitely wants to finish this season with Virtus. At the moment, no one knows what the future will bring – also because of Corona. On Wednesday at Belluno On Wednesday (14.30 p.m.) the difficult away game at Belluno is on the agenda for Mair & Co.
