Last second: Flensburg II missed point win against Kiel!

Flensburg, Deutschland - The SC Weiche Flensburg 08 II had to accept a bitter defeat on the last matchday when they lost an important point in the final phase of the game against Inter Türkspor Kiel. The game ended 2-1 (1: 1) in favor of the Kielers, who were able to further consolidate their starting position in the fight for the top of the table.

Dimitry Kehl, coach of SC Weiche Flensburg 08 II, was frustrated about the repeated fate of his team. "It happens to us again and again," he said after the game and added that the last five minutes were often crucial for the exit. According to Kehl, his team could have been in a much better position, with a better point yield in the last games. "If you take a point in each of these games, you have three more points and the world looks very different," he said with a noticeable disappointment.

exciting course of the game

The encounter in Flensburg started exciting, but both teams did not immediately manage to develop clear opportunities. The guests from Kiel had a better start, but could not create a decisive pressure to get the goal. Kehl criticized his team for the lack of engagement: "We were too open in the center, not close enough to the people," he said. As a result, the Flensburgers often had to run after.

In the first half, however, the situation for Flensburg was significantly better when Elias Kurzbach converted one of the few chances into a goal in the 38th minute. With a precise shot, he made sure that the hosts took the lead 1-0, which made the audience cheered. "We actually have control quite well," said Kehl about this moment.

But the joy was short -lived. Inter Türkspor Kiel proved that they are among the best teams in the league. In the second half they played offensive and increased the pressure. The game became more intense, although the Flensburgers now often had to concentrate on their defense. Despite various attempts by the hosts to prevent the opposing attacks, the Kielers managed to achieve the decisive goal in the 89th minute by a mistake in defense. Melih Akif Cerrah took advantage of Kurzbach and suddenly stood alone ahead of goalkeeper Phil Cayden Buck, which brought the decision in favor of the Kieler.

The last minute of the game was all about disappointment. "It is precisely these little deviations in the course of the game that often cost us the victory," Kehl reflected after the game. The Flensburger had often played points in the last minutes of the game this season, which influenced the entire mood in the team.

The next challenge for SC Weiche Flensburg 08 II will be to process these experiences and to better cut off in the following games. As the table shows, playful skills and mental strength are crucial to master the upcoming tasks. Clear words from Kehl make it clear that the team is willing to work on their weaknesses and to avoid such setbacks in the future.
