Fast-paced gameplay with video evidence
The first half was characterized by an intense offensive game from both teams. Darmstadt were lucky when a goal from Philipp Förster in the 49th minute was disallowed due to an offside position according to video evidence. That didn't upset the guests. They applied more pressure in the second half and took the first lead of the game to make it 3-2 through Aleksandar Vukotic in the 74th minute.
Luckily for Karlsruhe, Fabian Schleusener equalized just two minutes later. The last few minutes were filled with thrills; A free kick from Marvin Wanitzek bounced off the crossbar, denying Karlsruhe a possible victory. After an extremely dynamic game, Karlsruhe remains in third place in the table with 16 points, while Darmstadt, in 15th, was able to at least temporarily escape the relegation zone.
The teams remember the intense encounters of the past few days. Karlsruher SC must quickly get their defensive problems under control in order to fight their way further up the table. The next game will be crucial to stabilize the team's form and potentially get back into the top half of the table.
