TSV 1860 Munich dismantled MSV Duisburg in the first half.
The dream of promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga becomes concrete early in the season.
A commentary analysis.
Munich – Michael Köllner has long since made it a ritual: at home games in the Grünwalder Stadium, the coach of TSV 1860 Munich walks along all four stands and applauds the Löwen fans present.
Köllner does this before the game starts - and after every game at Giesing's heights.
On the other hand, he received a lot of applause from the stands.
TSV 1860 Munich: demonstration of power against MSV Duisburg
After all, the 52-year-old from Upper Palatinate is largely responsible for the fact that the long-suffering supporters of the Sechzger can confidently dream of returning to the 2nd Bundesliga this season.
Even more: The 4: 1 (4: 1) of the lions against MSV Duisburg was an impressive demonstration of power by the league leaders, who scored 19 out of a possible 21 points in seven games.
The victory was so trend-setting because the opponent from Meiderich had traveled to the Isar metropolis in good form.
Specifically: Duisburg had scored ten points from the four previous games.
Players like Sebastian Mai, Marvin Bakalorz, Moritz Stoppelkamp and
Aziz Bouhaddouz belong in the upper shelf of the 3rd division not only because of their second division experience, but also because of their footballing quality.
Nevertheless: The Sixties literally overran this savvy team.
Attacker Albion Vrenezi with a brace (2nd minute/32nd), center forward Fynn Lakenmacher (12th) and all-rounder Yannick Deichmann (35th) made the decision after just over half an hour.
Even more: The lions played like unleashed.
Her body language left no room for self-doubt.
Euphoric: the Löwen fans after the next victory in the 3rd division.

“I think we played a furious half hour.
One of the best things I've seen from my team in a long time," said coach Köllner at
Magenta Sport
.
He obviously liked the goals in particular.
His team "attacked incredibly, was extremely cold-blooded, scored great goals - each almost like something out of a textbook," said the former coach of 1. FC Nürnberg about the Giesingers' goals.
The only beauty spot under the gala in the first half was a curious own goal by goalkeeper Marco Hiller (43.)
TSV 1860 Munich: double packer Albion Vrenezi is enthusiastic, lion fans dream of getting out
"It's extremely fun.
We have top players in every position, you could see that.
You have implemented what we set out to do.
That's how football is fun," said double packer Vrenezi after the game at
Magenta Sport
.
He was their tenth goalscorer this season, underscoring the unpredictability of the 1860 team.
Blessed is the one who can add a player like Martin Kobylański to the changes in the 3rd division.
"Front runner, front runner, hej, hej", the lion fans sang frenetically towards the end of the game.
They are obviously certain: If TSV continues like this, with this conviction, the six-year-olds will be at the top at the end of the season and celebrate their return to the 2nd Bundesliga after the bitter relegation in 2017.
