The TSV 1860 stays on top.
But the competition also does its job - so the promotion race in the 3rd division remains exciting.
Mannheim / Munich - "The fight is not over," said goal scorer Dennis Dressel after the 2-0 (1-0) success at Waldhof Mannheim via Instagram: "The fight is not over." On the contrary.
The sixties, Hansa Rostock and FC Ingolstadt trembled in lockstep on Saturday afternoon on three points. While the Lions had to fear up to the sixth minute of stoppage time after the early lead by Richard Neudecker, before Dressel maneuvered the submission from Sascha Mölders over the line in the second attempt, Rostock benefited from a joker goal by Philip Türpitz (90th place) at 3-2 in Meppen . + 1); Ingolstadt needed an unfairly imposed hand penalty to bring down FSV Zwickau 3-2.
(Ex) top favorite Dynamo Dresden presented itself in a catastrophic state in a 3-0 draw against Halleschen FC. “What we've been doing here in the last seven games is simply bottomless,” said goalkeeper Kevin Broll at MagentaSport. In view of the two outstanding catch-up games (against Duisburg and in Uerdingen) one still has to “see the shit in a positive way”. For Dynamo coach Markus Kauczinski, yesterday was the end of the day. “We have to win games again as soon as possible. For this we will now mobilize all our strength again, ”said sports director Ralf Becker in the public leave of absence. With the change of coach, the aim is to "set new impulses in the most important phase of the season in order to achieve our goal."
Failure could stall the engine of the relegated second division. The pressure to succeed is comparatively low with the lions, who already have their budget for the coming season in the towel. “It is certainly a decisive momentum that we have very, very strong planning security compared to the last few years,” said sports director Günther Gorenzel recently. All high performers and hopes are contractually bound, the rest also know. Among other things, left-back Leon Klassen and center-back Dennis Erdmann can look for a new club.
Before saying goodbye, the ascent should stand.
After Kaiserslautern with ex-Lion Tim Rieder, Wehen-Wiesbaden, Bayern II and FC Ingolstadt are still waiting for the final on May 22nd.
Declarations of war?
Nothing.
"Next we play against Lautern, for them it's about existence," says captain Sascha Mölders.
“Anyone who sees the team knows that they have a brutal quality.
It will be hard work again.
That's why we don't need to stand up and talk about matchday 38.
That doesn't help at all! ”Schütze Neudecker didn't want to pull out:“ It doesn't make sense to talk about promotion if you don't win the next game, ”said the strong driver:“ We have to keep our run and then see what's going on The end comes out! ”Four weeks to the truth.
