Two points from three games are still missing, then the relegation for Unterhachings volleyball women in the third division is perfect and the season for the strong climber is booked early as a huge success.
Unterhaching - The 3: 1 against last table DJK Augsburg-Hochzoll was the next big step, meanwhile the Hachingen women are even on top and could still reach second place. "We want to close the sack as early as possible in the next game," says coach Max Siebold, who is otherwise reluctant to go further: "I think a third place is also quite good for a newcomer. If we are not that high up in the end, it’s okay, because we definitely played a very good season. ”
It is a bit strange that the TSV women have won only seven of 15 season games so far, but have lost eight and are still tied for third with Erfurt. The reason: all victories were achieved with three points, but at least five of the eight bankruptcies brought them a counter. The home record is also strong with six wins in seven games. That's also why Siebold is not afraid of the last three games of the season, because twice his team has home rights.
As expected, the home game against Augsburg-Hochzoll ended on Saturday with a three-point victory. As in the previous week, the Hachingen women gave the first sentence surprisingly clearly (18:25), but then played out their class. The longer the game lasted, the more dominant the hosts became. In the second round they granted Augsburg 19 points, in the third only 14, in the fourth even only eight. The clearest set win so far this season. "We slept through the beginning again, but then we really started," said Siebold, looking back, "and it got more and more easy with increasing playing time. Augsburg broke in pretty quickly, but we played very consistently after the first set and quickly broke the resistance. ”
Next weekend TSV Unterhaching will be free of play, afterwards they will play against the Eighth Munich East / Herrsching in their own hall. In this game in front of their own audience, the third-division newcomer could fix the relegation two games before the end of the season - and possibly still concentrate on second place. The direct duel with the current second Erfurt is, as luck would have it, on the program on the last day of the game. High voltage is guaranteed.
