Rot-white food misses home win and hibernated in the relegation zone

In the last home game of the year, Rot-Weiss Essen gave a valuable chance of the urgently needed home win in the duel against VfB Stuttgart II. Despite a committed performance and two tours, the game ended on matchday 19 in the 3rd league with a disappointing 2: 2 draw, as red-weiss-essen.de reported. Under the direction of coach Uwe Koschinat, who had to compete with a greatly reduced team, since several players failed due to injury, RWE caught a strong start and scored 1-0 in the 18th minute by Leonardo Vonic. Even after an injury and the necessary change from Julian Eitschberger, the home side seemed to keep control and led to the break.

But in the second half it became clear that the game often develops its own dynamics. After the 1-1 compensation by Eliot Bujupi in the 74th minute, the Esseners were able to react quickly by the young Gianluca Swajkowski and achieve it 2-1, but VfB immediately struck back and equalized through Luan Simnica only three minutes later, like Reviersport.de Despite numerous opportunities and the commitment of all players to achieve the winning goal, it ultimately remained with the draw, which makes the red-white people linger in the relegation zone.

With just five points from the last six games, the Esseners hibernate on a relegation zone and have to focus again in winter. The next test for the team is on January 19 when it comes to Alemannia Aachen. The team can thank their fans who donated applause despite the disappointment for their efforts.
