A 2: 6 debacle! Mainz 05 U17 loses against Cologne superiority

Köln, Deutschland - The U17 of the 1st FSV Mainz 05 experienced a bitter defeat with the exciting duel against 1. FC Köln, which ended with a catastrophic 2: 6! The Mainz, who were able to show an impressive series of seven undefeated games before this game, had to give up against the Cologne team, who were already five points before the meeting. The game started hopefully for the Mainz when Maximilian Polzin scored the first goal in the 2nd minute. But only two minutes later the sheet turned when Cologne equalized and from then on the game dominated, with an impressive 4-1 lead at half-time.

In the second round, the team under coach Marc Heidenmann fought against the impending slump, but fucking defensive gaps made it possible to 5: 2 ten minutes before the end. Luca Hampel gave the Mainz fans briefly hope in the 80th minute, but the joy only lasted. Kevin Ekweribe restored the old distance in the final minute and gave Mainz a painful, well -deserved defeat. Heidenmann said loudly and clearly after the game: "Cologne was superior in all matters today and also deservedly won in height." This clear announcement shows that the Mainzers have to learn from their mistakes quickly to sit back against FSV Frankfurt in the next game.

fight for the top positions

The struggle for coveted places two and three in the table remains hot! After the defeat, the red devils of 1. FC Kaiserslautern have passed past FSV Mainz 05 and are now pushing in second place. The Mainz is now going on quickly-on November 3. November you will play your important home game against FSV Frankfurt (11 a.m.), followed by a gripping Rhineland-Palatinate derby against the Kaiserslauterner. While 1st FC Köln is determined as a group winner, the race for the other two places will remain exciting. The first three teams qualify for the main round in League A, where the best 24 teams in Germany are fighting for fame and honor. A failure would mean that the non -qualified teams in League B have to continue playing - a perspective that the Mainzers do not want to strive for!
