Black weekend for TSV 1860: While all teams at the top of the table scored three times, the Löwen lost the relegation revival at 1. FC Saarbrücken with 1: 2.
For Michael Köllner's team it was the third game without a win in a row, the relegation place is already four points away, but at least the coach is still fighting.
Pack formation after the final whistle: Salger sees yellow-red, from Mölders there is verbal "something between the horns".
Bad luck at the penalty spot - and in stoppage time when a post hit.
In the home derby against Unterhaching, Köllner has to fill the back four to 50 percent.
When it got
heated
in Völklingen
after the
final whistle
, the Oberlöwe didn't care too much.
Stephan Salger
saw
yellow-red
after a late pack formation
, the
part of the big brother
took over
captain Sascha Mölders
, 35, who
northed
a few
rebellious Saarbrücken
.
"I always find it a little unhappy when players who are 17 or 18 behave so disrespectfully," said Mölders at MagentaSport: "There's a little something between the horns - and then it's good again."
Frustration reduction
at the end of a failed new edition of the relegation first leg in 2018. That it was not the day of the lions, had last shown in stoppage time.
Substitute
debutant Keanu Staude
spiked the
ball against the post
, but Biankadi caught the rebound so weakly that
Basti Bösel had
no trouble
justifying his
bonus
with a final
rescue act on the goal line

As in the first leg, it was 2: 1 (1: 0) for the promoted team in the end.
More would have been possible for 1860 if
Phillipp Steinhart
had aimed even better with the penalty kick in the 62nd minute (foul on Lex), but
Saarbrücken's victory in historically burdened Völklingen was
not
undeserved
.
Especially before the break,
the newly filled Lions had played
a strangely uninspired game.
The
disappointments
in the home games before (only two out of nine possible points) - they had obviously
robbed
the team of
belief in their own strength
.
Because
all the teams at the top of the table
also scored three times,
1860
dropped out
of the promotion race
for the time being.
Michael Köllner in particular sounded frustrated, but he doesn't want to check off the season yet.
“Desperation would be the wrong approach,” said the Löwen coach bravely: “I'm disappointed.
There are games like that in football.
Unfortunately, we are currently in
a phase where the results are not correct
.
But it goes on.
There are still 42 points to get.
We look from week to week to see what is still possible. "
There are games like that in football.
1860 coach Michael Köllner.
The only
bright spot in the Hermann Neuberger Stadium
: Sascha Mölders meets again.
After a ricochet in the penalty area, the captain gave a dry 1: 2.
Two days after his contract extension
, at least the 36-year-old showed that he had overcome his small interim
low
- in time for the
home derby against Unterhaching
.
Small consolation for 1860: The local rival from the suburbs, still without a win in 2021, is
going through
an
even worse phase
.
Unfavorable, however: Salger and
Marius Willsch (fifth yellow card)
are
banned
on Friday, so Köllner has to
build
a
new back four
. On the other hand,
good news
:
Semi Belkahia
,
limping
off the field after 60 minutes, gave the
all-clear.
Just a cramp.
