Kaiserslautern celebrates important home win: 2-1 against Ulm!

Kaiserslautern, Deutschland - The 1st FC Kaiserslautern celebrated an important home win in the 2nd Bundesliga against SSV Ulm 1846 and won 2-1 on Betzenberg. The game started anything but optimal for the hosts when Philipp Stromf put the Ulmer the lead after only four minutes by taking advantage of the carelessness of the Kaiserslauter defense and promoted the ball to the net.

Already in the 23rd minute Marlon Ritter made the equalization. With a quick counterattack, he redirected the game and converted a precise pass from Hanslik Siehshift. In the 37th minute, Filip Kaloc put the end of the first half with an impressive shot from 20 meters into the net, which was a real dream goal for the spectators. Despite intensive duels and a high number of yellow cards, Kaiserslautern controlled the game after the tour. This performance was not only rewarded with the victory, but also consolidated its position in the championship race, since they are now bleeted with the leader Hamburger SV (42 points), which, however, has one game less, like Bundesliga.com reported.

Sacrificed fight up to the last minute

In the second half, the game remained exciting when Ulm built more pressure. Maier had the best chance for the guests in the 49th minute, but the strong goalkeeper Julian Krahl brought the ball to the corner with a great parade. Both trainers tried to set fresh impulses with change, but the defense of the red devils withstood the pressure. The Ulm threw everything forward in the final phase, but the Kaiserslauter defense was no longer overcome. With this solid defensive performance, the hosts secured an essential victory in the championship race, which gives them a new upper after this important 12th win of the season, such as laola1.at reported.
