1:0 victory in Schweinfurt
SVWW coach Nils Döring made three changes from the cup match against Bayern Munich, bringing on Wohlers, Fechner and Flotho for Mockenhaupt, Schleimer and Agrafiotis, who were all on the bench. And it actually started quite well, with Kaya's ball going just over the goal after four minutes, before the hosts forced Wiesbaden keeper Stritzel into a save a minute later. After that, Wiesbaden pulled back and the hosts, who were slightly superior in the field, hardly created any chances. Bausenwein's shot after just under 20 minutes went wide of the goal. Kaya also had the next opportunity after 30 minutes, but overall the Red & Blacks did not create many chances. Coach Döring made his first change after 35 minutes and brought on Schleimer. And there were two more chances before the break, first Bausenwein again failed to beat keeper Stritzel, then Wiesbaden's Bogicevic failed to beat Stahl and the game went into the break goalless.
Schweinfurt then had the first chance of the second half, but Stritzel, once again strong, was able to fend off Geis' free-kick, the rebound of which Shuranov then shot against the post. Bogicevic (50') and Kaya (63') had the next two chances for SVWW, but the score remained 0-0. And then the final phase began, but Agrafioti's header (74') also went over the goal. It smelled like a typical 0-0 draw, but Wiesbaden took the lead in the fourth minute of stoppage time. Agrafiotis pushed the ball over the line to give SVWW a 1-0 lead. Schweinfurt's Agrafiotis then missed a penalty against Stritzel in the seventh minute of stoppage time, allowing SVWW to leave the pitch as winners. After the 1:0 victory, the Wiesbaden team is in fourth place in the table with seven points.
