With a poor performance and signs of disintegration, the SpVgg Unterhaching said goodbye to the 3rd division on Wednesday evening and is relegated. 

Unterhaching - For SpVgg Unterhaching, it was reaching for the last straw.

But with the 0: 2 (0: 1) home defeat against SV Waldhof, Haching could no longer avert the move to the regional league.

The descent is now final.

"The tendency of the last few weeks has spoken against us," said Haching's head coach Arie van Lent, who did not want to commit to his future career.

SpVgg Unterhaching: After conceding, the team looks like it has given up

As so often this season, the first half was disappointing for the home team.

The guests from Mannheim could let off steam in the Unterhachinger Sportpark.

The Hachinger were constantly on the defensive and only got two shots on goal from Markus Schwabl (30th) and Stephan Hain (44th) in the first half.

On the other side, Hachinger goalkeeper Jo Coppens prevented worse.

After Max Christiansen hit the crossbar (23rd), the Belgian goalkeeper was powerless to make it 1-0 for the Waldhöfer when Rafael Garcia shot it from long range (24th).

Until the break it looked as if the Hachinger had already given up in the relegation battle.

There were no encouraging words either with strong saves by Coppens or with good actions by fellow players.

The team of head coach Arie van Lent was lucky that the guests pursued chances and never met again.

SpVgg Unterhaching: Van Lent takes note of the descent to the coaching chair motionless

With a triple change for the overwhelmed talents Jannis Turtschan and Boipelo Mashigo as well as the pale midfield veteran Alexander Fuchs, Max Dombrowka, Christoph Ehlich and Paul Grauschopf came to the second half.

But even with the changes nothing changed for the bottom of the table.

After two chances from Moritz Heinrich (53rd) and Niclas Anspach (58th), the Mannheimers closed the bag.

After an hour Garcia scored his second goal and made the preliminary decision against shockingly harmless Hachinger.

Van Lent also motionlessly noted the descent in his coaching chair.
