Assertive: The Darmstadt Ronny König (front) claims the ball to Jonas Meffert from Karlsruhe SC.
In the stadium where coach Dirk Schuster had his most successful period as a professional, is the SV Darmstadt 98 on Monday night has taken a big step towards Bundesliga promotion. There was pure joy in “Lily” camp, as the team in this season already fabulously sounding another coup had succeeded.
Thanks to the goal by Tobias Kempe in the 67th minute won the South Hesse’s third last game 1: 0 when Followers Karlsruher SC and pushed with now 56 points on the second place in the Second Bundesliga before. The “lilies” go in the last two season games in Fürth and against St. Pauli now from the “pole position” in the race for the direct ascent. At the sold out with 27 470 spectators Wildparkstadion the SV 98-deserved success due to a great performance in the second half. “This victory is a milestone – but we have not achieved anything yet. Mentality has now beaten quality, “said match-winner Kempe.
“Everything can, nothing must” – Schuster had before looking towards game once again found a pithy phrase to illustrate that you have nothing to lose in Darmstadt at the end of season, but only to win something. And the prize is again a companion piece become more likely. Both teams went from the first minute with the utmost determination to work. As for the yellow suspended captain Aytac Sulu gerückten in central defense Benjamin Gorka underwent an “error floor” in the forward movement, Schuster misgives on the sidelines. And the resulting corner would have almost finished the opening goal the local people.
But Daniel Gordon (5th minute) headed the ball against the crossbar – as Christian would have been powerless Mathenia in Darmstadt target. The “lilies” were the forward thrust of the KSC with their proven means – spaces condense, destroying game rhythm, provoking fouls – brakes quickly. And it was not until the end of the first half, until one of the two goalkeepers moved once again in the spotlight. In between was a lot of fighting and more spasm on both sides.
Something like danger at the gates emerged only at set pieces. Or as the ball steered into the danger zone in the 44th minute of the Karlsruhe-born Jerome Gondorf and Marco Sailer deflected the ball with the toe the left post. KSC keeper Dirk Orlishausen parried the first Darmstadt goal skillfully. A minute later the ball would be landed almost in his goal, but Hanno Behrens scored the game device from a distance just wide.
The “lily” came to the unsatisfactory first half a few minutes earlier than the Baden from the cabin. And seemed to be the first team to clear from the fact that much was at stake. Marcel Heller put on one of his solos on the wing, but his cross was too high for attackers Ronny König (49), who had regained the advantage over Dominik Stroh-Engel. A minute later, Leon Balogun forced the KSC keeper with a remarkable shot to save by.
The “lilies” moved the game now becoming more common in the Karlsruher half without revealing of its own defensive stability one iota. And in the 67th minute then the explosion of joy in the gut dwellers: Heller found in a counter-attack a lot of space on the left before, shook’s speed with ball at his feet two opponent off, curved into the box and played so perfectly Kempe that this had to let the ball just bounce into an empty net. In the final phase Mathenia had beautiful goal of the Südhessen range shot from Nazarov (74th) ran again.
Thanks to an even more superior performance collectively succeeded in “Lily”, keep the Baden until the end consistently from the own goal and to put themselves offensively against visibly unnerved Karlsruher pinpricks. Only in stoppage time had defender Fabian Holland again in dire need to save what it was necessary to save: three points which bring close the “Lily” the Bundesliga
