District Cup final: FSV Neunkirchen-Seelscheid gets title after exciting battle

On the day of German unity, the eagerly awaited endgames took place in the district cup on the grounds of Siegburger SV 04. The event brought together numerous football enthusiasts, including around 600 spectators who enjoyed the atmosphere in the Walter-Mundorf Stadium, while other games were played as part of the 120th anniversary of the SSV. The women's final was dominated by SV Allner-Bödingen, who won 6-1 against SV Menden II.

The mood was excited, while the club chairman Norbert Schneider expressed in the run -up to the game: "I can't remember that we won this title."

Captain Heinen proves what he can do

The game started promising for Neunkirchen-Seelscheid when Christopher Mai scored the lead in the 8th minute. But Mondorf was not idle. Haytam Bouskouchi brought the district league team back into play shortly before half -time and achieved the equalization in the 44th minute. This increased the tension in the game, since Mondorf repeatedly put the favorite FSV under pressure.

FSV coach Christoph Gerlach noticed the difficulties that Mondorf prepared to the team: "Mondorf did it well and, especially on our right side, always posed problems with us." After a strong first half, however, the Mondorf showed signs of exhaustion, which the FSV benefited in the second half.

The late winning goal finally fell in the 80th minute. Captain Rico Heinen, who only returned to the game after a muscle fiber that had put him out of action since the first game of the season, scored the crucial point with a header after a corner from Tom Wieschebrock.
