33 hits after nine games!
After the clear derby win against SpVgg Unterhaching, FC Bayern II is becoming the promotion favorites for the 3rd division.
Munich - The course has been set.
Since Friday evening, the role of the big promotion favorite has undoubtedly been awarded to FC Bayern II.
Although coach Martin Demichelis will probably hide behind the "we-look-from-game-to-game" phrase in April, the 5: 1 against relegated Unterhaching was a statement that resonates.
For Sandro Wagner's Hachinger, on the other hand, this dismantling was a bitter damper after five wins in a row, the gap to the top grew again to six points.
Meanwhile, SpVgg Bayreuth seems to be establishing itself as the most dangerous pursuer of the small Bavarians.
In eight days - on Tuesday, August 31 - the Bavarians will receive the Upper Franconians for the summit.
The former second division team is currently only one point behind - with a catch-up game up its sleeve.
After the bankruptcy against Schalding-Heining, FC Bayern II shows an “outstanding reaction” against Haching
Despite being inferior in the first section, the Hachinger team came 1-1 at half-time after Boipelo Mashigo's equalizer (38th).
In the second section, however, they were broken down into their individual parts.
The goals for the small Bavarians were scored by Gabriel Vidovic (15th), Timo Kern (48th), Taylor Booth (59th), Tizian Zimmermann with an own goal (61st) and finally captain Nicolas Feldhahn (81st).
“At exactly the right moment,” said the satisfied Bayern coach Martin Demichelis after the final whistle, his team showed “an outstanding reaction to the defeat in Schalding-Heining against a strong opponent”.
On the previous Tuesday, the small Bavarians had to accept the first defeat of the season at 1: 2, but this slip apparently left no more lasting traces.
Rather, this scratch only seemed to spur the record champions' talent shed.
"We had big plans and actually had a good mentality, but we lacked luck against a very strong FC Bayern."

Nevertheless, Demichelis gave himself as a warning. This victory did not guarantee anything, he emphasized, "the only thing we can guarantee is that we will continue to work hard". With the Haching team, however, who were even well served with the 1: 5, coach Wagner was by no means harsh with his protégés despite this severe setback: “We had big plans and actually had a good mentality, but we weren't lucky enough to play against a very strong FC Bayern ”.
Wagner also found an explanation for the poor performance of the newcomers Pisot, Stiefler, Vunguidica and Skarlatidis: “You didn't play much last season, so there was a lack of match practice. The same applies to our young people who only play a few games in the Junior Bayern League, for us it remains a year of development ”. Nevertheless, President Manfred Schwabl does not rule out further newcomers: “Talks are ongoing, we have to strengthen our defense”. Already on Tuesday (6.30 p.m.) in the sports park, the total cup game against the league rivals TSV Buchbach, who has only conceded five goals in the league, is on the program.
