It was not played for a minute when SpVgg Greuther Fürth was already outnumbered in the 2nd Bundesliga against 1. FC Kaiserslautern. There was no herb for tenth against the dominant Palatinate at 0: 3 (0: 1).
After the lead goal by Naatan Skyttä (32nd minute), double scorer Ivan Prtajin expanded the lead in the 58th and 64th minute.
“In the outnumber of less than a minute.analyzed Fürth’s trainer Thomas Kleine after the match. He immediately turned his eyes backwards: “Next week in Bielefeld we want to show with eleven men what we had actually done for today.”
FCK coach Torsten Lieberknecht said: “It was a difficult game for us because despite the outnumbered, we always had to be careful not to run into a counterattack. It was very important that we then took the lead early.”

Red against Fürth’s king after 27 seconds
In time for the kick -off, the sun had come out above the Fürther Ronhof. Not a good omen, however, for the host’s team – Übles, which was started at the beginning of the game. It was played exactly 27 seconds because SpVgg defender Noah König underestimated a first long ball of the guests and rammed the knee into the side to the Lauter Faride Alidou. Referee Richard Hempel did not hesitate and immediately picked up his pocket: he showed the red card.
So Fürth was outnumbered after less than a minute – the Franks would have liked to do without this historical record for the 2nd league. From then on, the “clover leaves” were of course busy on the defensive. Kaiserslautern won a lot of possession, but was not really dangerous at first. Everything was somehow with the handbrake attracted – as is so often the case when you suddenly play in the majority.
Skyttä hits the FCK leadership
In the 32nd minute, however, the breakthrough: Semih Sahin had played a long ball onto the right louder attack side, where Paul Joly fit the ball directly into the center. SpVgg goalkeeper Pelle Boevink could no longer intercept the cross pass and Naatan Skyttä was in the right place to accommodate the ball in the orphaned gate to 0-1.
The spell was broken, Joly almost added to 0: 2 in the 38th minute, but his degree from 17 meters stroked just above the crossbar. Until then, Fürth had not yet taken offensive. Captain Branimir Hrgota therefore took a lot of time with a direct free kick from a half -right position. He pulled the ball directly onto the box, but FCK goalkeeper Julian Krahl tore up his fists and clarified the corner.
Lautern breaks the away spell
Since February, the “Red Devil” had not won away – now they had all the chances. And they laid the foundation stone in the 58th minute: again Joly flanked from the right side and hit the center forward in the center of the center, which put the ball under the crossbar from six meters – 0: 2.

2,500 traveling fans from the Palatinate were on top. They got even more fun six minutes later when Prtajin added his second goal. He took a technically demanding one from the air, turned around his own axis in a confined space and put the ball butter -soft from eight meters next to the left posts to 0: 3 on the net.
