Debut drama: Umutspor Troisdorf is leaving in the district cup

The debut by Natale Giarrizzo as head coach of SV Umutspor Troisdorf was anything but successful. In the second round of the district cup, his team, an A-league team, had to give up 2: 4. Despite this defeat, the newly appointed trainer was optimistic. "We had to do without some key players and install a lot of young talents from the second team into the game. Under these circumstances, our appearance was quite respectable," remarked Giarrizzo.

The match was exciting. The home team initially held the lead twice: Blendon Bajrami opened the game in the 16th minute and Emrullah Celikpence increased in the 50th minute. But the visitors could not be got down. Taylan Turhan equalized in the 40th minute before Burak Kir with a free kick (57th) and an assist on Usama Bouskouchi (86.) turned the tide. Homam Abou Samra reinforced the lead by a counter goal in the 90th minute.
