FC Pipinsried returns to the start of the season in the Regionalliga Bayern from 1. FC Nürnberg II with a deserved 2-2 (1-0) draw back to the Dachau hinterland.
The team of FCP coach Andreas Thomas equalized a 0-2 deficit.
Nürnberg / Pipinsried - Man of the game was the Pipinsried Faton Dzemailji, who forced the equalizer with a brilliant shot.
However, against the strong Franconians, the guests had better chances to score, the bottom line being that the draw is deserved.
The players of FC Pipinsried walked from the field at Valznerweiher beaming with joy.
A few hours earlier, however, there had been long faces, because in a letter from the BFV the club was informed that the players Albano Gashi and Dominik Schröder had played in the preparatory game without a guest permit.

The penalty for the players was set at six (!!) friendly matches in the first paragraph of the letter, then a few paragraphs later that this ban would also count for other competitions.
At least the letter was written in such a way that even the lawyer Reinhard Höß, who is recognized in sporting litigation, could not do anything with it.
The FCP played it safe, he renounced the two players (detailed report on the subject follows).
Since the Pipinsrieder had to do without their injured offensive player Ati Lushi, improvisation was the order of the day.
Last-minute newcomer Serhat Imsak was ordered to the center forward position, Pablo Pigl initially formed the offensive midfield with Benny Kauffmann, the three-man chain was formed with Zitzelsberger, Guinari and Fippl.
In the first part of the game, the promoted team was not very successful in the play area, but the Ilmtalers were dangerous when they appeared in front of the good club keeper Jan Reichert.
Pablo Pigl, Serhat Imsak and Benny Kauffmann failed in one-on-one situations against Reichert, and the ball only just missed the housing in a long-range shot by Niko Jesilic and an almost own goal by Nuremberg.

The hosts, on the other hand, hardly had any compelling chances to score, apart from a long-range shot that went one meter over the housing and another long-range shot that was easily punched away while standing by FCP keeper Alex Eiban. After all, the Franconians knew how to please through their technically good game, especially through the middle. In front of or in the penalty area it was mostly after work, the defense of the Pipinsrieder was good.
After the club increased to 2-0 shortly after the break, things seemed to be over.
But the Pipinsrieder finally shifted up one or two gears, did not shy away from a duel and took command.
After the happy goal with an own goal by the home team, the guests really got going.
A laceration on the head of FC attacker Pablo Pigl could not stop the FCP.
Cheered on by the fans and the substitutes' bench, seven minutes before the final whistle, the deserved equalizer was achieved with a remarkable goal from Faton Dezmailji.
