Heidenheim's desperate struggle

coach Frank Schmidt had to make numerous changes compared to previous games and relied on fresh players, but this did not lead to a desired result. Despite some promising approaches, Heidenheim remains without the necessary punch and quality. Mainz, on the other hand, ended his small series of winnings and climbed six in the table. While Heidenheim will play against Copenhagen in Conference League next Thursday, Mainz will receive FC St. Pauli and is likely to go into the game with new confidence.
