Managerial career

FSV Frankfurt

Oral was hired as head coach for FSV Frankfurt prior to the 2006–07 season.[1] His debut was a 2–0 win against 1. FC Schwalmstadt[2] in the Hessenliga.[3] He would finish the season in first place; losing only one match.[4] The only loss of the season came on matchday 30 against Viktoria Aschaffenburg.[2] The club's first-place finish meant promotion to the Regionalliga Süd. During the 2007–08 season, Frankfurt defeated the reserve team of 1860 München, drew against the reserve team of Bayern Munich, and recorded a pair of draws against the reserve team of VfB Stuttgart.[5] Again, Frankfurt finished in first place and were promoted.[6] During the 2008–09 season, Frankfurt played in the 2. Bundesliga and German Cup.[7] Franfurt started the season with a 2–0 win against VfL Osnabrück in the German Cup.[7] However, they went winless in their first four league matches of the season.[7] They were knocked out of the German Cup in the second round after losing 1–0 to Carl Zeiss Jena.[8] Frankfurt finished the season in 15th place; two points above the relegation playoff spot.[9] To start the 2009–10 season,[10] Frankfurt was knocked out of the German Cup by Borussia Mönchengladbach. Oral resigned on 5 October 2009.[11] He finished with a record of 53 wins, 31 draws, and 29 losses.[4][6][7][10]

RB Leipzig

Oral was head coach of RB Leipzig between 18 June 2010[12] and 28 May 2011[13] Leipzig started the season with a nine–match undefeated streak.[14] He finished the season in fourth place.[15] He finished with a record of 18 wins, 10 draws, and six losses.[16]

FC Ingolstadt 04

Oral was hired on 10 November 2011.[17] His first match was a 1–0 loss to 1860 München on 18 November 2011.[18] He would go on to win only one of his first eight matches as the new head coach.[19] The only win during that stretch was against FC St. Pauli.[19] However, starting from that victory, Ingolstadt went on a 14–match undefeated streak[20] which included wins over Hansa Rostock,[21] SC Paderborn 07,[22] VfL Bochum,[23] and Karlsruher SC.[24] The streak ended after a 4–1 loss to 1860 München.[20] Ingolstadt finished the 2011–12 season in 12th place.[25] The following season, Ingolstadt finished in 13th place.[26] Oral and Ingolstadt parted ways as of 30 June 2013.[27] He finished with a record of 16 wins, 22 draws, and 17 losses.[28]

Return to FSV Frankfurt

On 18 May 2015, Oral replaced Benno Möhlmann with a match left in the 2014–15 season.[29] Frankfurt was in 16th place when Oral was hired.[29] The match against 1. FC Kaiserslautern finished in a 1–1 draw[30] and Frankfurt jumped up to 13th place.[31] During the 2015–16 season, Frankfurt defeated Dynamo Berlin[32] and lost to Hertha BSC[33] in the German Cup. In the league, Frankfut started the season with a three–match winless streak.[34] Frankfurt results were mixed up to the winter break.[34] Frankfurt lost to Arminia Bielefeld on matchday 19, immediately prior to the winter break.[35] At this point, Frankfurt dropped down to 14th place in the league table.[36] He was sacked on 10 April 2016 after losing 4–1 to VfL Bochum.[37] He finished with a record of nine wins, eight draws, and 15 losses.[38]
