3: 3 - Haching 2-0 lead is not enough

The crash has stopped, but the step back into the narrowest circle of candidates for promotion has not succeeded either. SpVgg Unterhaching had to be content with a draw at FSV Zwickau. The turbulent game ended 3: 3, the Hachinger gave an early 2: 0 lead, even fell behind and were lucky four minutes before the end that a free kick by Sascha Bigalke was deflected and landed on the net to equalize.

Zwickau / Unterhaching - head coach Claus Schromm was particularly annoyed by the defense performance of his team: “It is hair-raising how defensively we defend, what we allow and what gifts we give out. We had the best defense two or three weeks ago, nothing of which can be seen anymore. We urgently need to be more stable on the defensive again. ”From the last four games, the Hachinger scored only one point and conceded a total of ten goals.

After only five minutes, it looked as if the negative series of the past few weeks could come to an end in Zwickau. The SpVgg got a dream start at the relegation candidate. After 157 seconds, a shot by Captain Alexander Winkler fidgeted on the net.

Only 90 seconds later Moritz Heinrich flanked into the penalty area, defender Paul Grauschopf held out his head without hesitation - 0: 2. In the 8th minute, Alexander Fuchs even had 0: 3 on his feet in front of Brinkies, but failed at the FSV keeper. But the early leadership was not reassuring, on the contrary.

Zwickau came back too easily and was suddenly the leading team. Jensen hit the inside post in the 15th minute, in the 24th minute Schröter marked the 1-2 with a Sunday shot from 18 meters into the goal angle. SpVgg goalkeeper Nico Mantl parried a shot from Schröter in the 39th minute, but Zwickau cheered for the equalizer before the break. Könicke easily prevailed on the right side against Fuchs, in the middle Huth stood completely free in front of the Hachinger box and pushed in. "Outrageous," repeated Schromm, "what we are going to do and how many goals we have scored in the past few weeks." Mantl saved the result shortly before the break, Haching went into the half with a happy draw. "I wasn't entirely unhappy with the 2-2 win after 45 minutes," Schromm admitted.

After the change of sides a very entertaining encounter developed, in which the Hachingen got the better start again. Schromm had now brought in three fresh offensive personnel. Florian Dietz in particular was in the spotlight twice. In the 51st and 54th minute he found his master in Brinkies. As in the first round, the game toppled again in favor of the hosts. After an hour, Schröter pulled off, Mantl did not look good with the low shot, the ball spun from his fingers into the goal. 3: 2, game turned. For a long time after that, Frick's shot even touched the crossbar, Haching was now lucky. Especially when Bigalke's free kick was deflected into the goal by two Zwickauers in the 86th minute.

"We actually came out well after half time, but then we catch the 3-2," according to Schromm's analysis of the second half, "after that we walked around a bit in the fog, both offensively and defensively. We shouldn't complain if we even get the 4-2. After all, there was the late and happy compensation. "

For SpVgg Unterhaching the game continues on Wednesday (7 p.m.) with the home game against Waldhof Mannheim, another top game against a direct promotion opponent after the 1-3 against Eintracht Braunschweig.
