PAAUWE TRAVELS TO GERMANY, GYAN STAYS BEHIND

The squad that travels to Germany Wednesday ahead of the crunch game against SC Freiburg a day later includes Patrick Paauwe for the first time since he suffered an injury in the defeat at NAC a month ago. In what’s fast becoming a tradition for European encounters Bert van Marwijk names a squad of twenty for the showdown. Although not yet fully fit, Jan de Visser and Bonaventure Kalou are making good progress and earn a place in the squad, while Chris Gyan stays at home.

Fit again Jean-Paul van Gastel and Ramon van Haaren do not travel either. The group will be reduced to eighteen on the day of the game. THE COMPLETE SQUAD: Edwin Zoetebier, Henk Timmer; Tomasz Rzasa, Glenn Loovens, Civard Sprockel, Ferry de Haan, Kees van Wonderen, Jan de Visser; Patrick Paauwe, Paul Bosvelt, Brett Emerton, Igor Korneev, Ebi Smolarek, Leonardo dos Santos, Shinji Ono, Jon Dahl Tomasson; Leonardo, Bonaventure Kalou, Pierre van Hooijdonk, Johan Elmander
