Bochum coach Heiko Herrlich has called on his side to show their true strength and get out of the bottom three in the Bundesliga with a win over Freiburg tomorrow.

Herrlich has inherited a side which has dropped to 17th in the table, but he is convinced the players he has do not deserve such a position.

He said: "I have not seen any indication that this team will give up. True strength emerges when things are not going so well.''

The last thing Herrlich expects is a performance like the one in his side's 2-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt last weekend - his first game in charge.

"My team is not going to play like it did against Frankfurt,'' he said.

Yet that may depend on opponents Freiburg, who will have an emotional challenge on their hands.

Their president Achim Stocker died last Sunday and a ceremony in his remembrance was held in front of a full house at Freiburg's Dreisam Stadion today.

Stocker had been at the helm of the club for over three decades and the news of his death filtered through to the team while they were going down 1-0 at home to Hoffenheim last weekend.

A minute's silence will be held at the Ruhr Stadion tomorrow in remembrance of a man who was the longest-serving president in the Bundesliga and whose death has left the whole community of German football in mourning.
