With a double strike shortly after the break, the 1st FC Heidenheim ends its dry spell in the Bundesliga against FC Augsburg. For the team of Sandro Wagner, on the other hand, it is getting darker after the 5th matchday.
After four defeats at the start of the season, Mikkel Kaufmann (47th minute) and Sirlord Conteh (54.) with their goals released the Heidenheimers in 2-1 (0-0) victory on Saturday. The Augsburg goal through the substitute Phillip Tietz (90.+8) was late.
“We were an outstanding unit today“Heidenheim’s goal scorer Conteh was happy in the sports show. Due to the first three points of the season, the FCH established the connection to the other clubs in the table cellar.
According to the now fourth defeats in a row, FC Augsburg, in which the initial euphoria around coach Sandro Wagner could slowly turn into the opposite. Overall, much too harmless (only one shot on the goal), the Bavarian Swabians presented themselves. “This is not a nice momentum“, Wagner told the sports show:”We had made up for a lot today.“

Much more fouls than degrees in halftime one
The hosts were the better team in the basement duel in the first 45 minutes. Conteh alone had awarded twice from a promising position (28th, 44th). However, this deceived something about the level of the game, which lived primarily from duels, fouls and inadequacies.
In the first round, no single end went on the goal, but the two opponents came on a total of 15 fouls.
Heidenheim’s goals: Conteh on a merchant and vice versa
That should be different at the beginning of the second half. The eleven of coach Frank Schmidt put one of the first attacks in the goal. Conteh had escaped over the right, brought the ball inwards, where Kaufmann kept his foot in at the short five -corner and steered the ball over Augsburg’s keeper Finn Dahmen to 1-0 into the far corner.
A few minutes later it was the same duo that had the Heidenheim fans cheer again. After a long ball from the FCH defense on the right outer lane Cedric Zesiger, Kaufmann cleverly boiled off in a duel. After a solo over the wing, he covered Clever in the penalty area and the recovered conteh shot from 14 meters under the crossbar to 2-0.

FCH trainer Schmidt stabilizes the defense
Now something had to come from the previously harmless Augsburg. And the Wagner team actually got better into its offensive processes. Fabian Rieder (58th) gave a first warning shot and had the scream of scream on his lips two minutes later. But Heidenheim’s final mum Diant Ramaj wiped his pour from twelve meters very much over the crossbar.
For a few minutes, the hosts lost some control. However, coach Schmidt quickly switched to a chain of five on the defensive on the defensive and Heidenheim became more stable again.
Tietz goal is late for Augsburg
Augsburg aged and fought. Heidenheim did, driven by the home audience, but also and kept the guests away from the danger zone over the rest of the season. To do this, the FCH brought the ball back in the goal – but referee Tobias Welz whistled the goal of substitute Adam Kölle (87th) due to an off -the -sided position in the creation.
It was only towards the end of the ten -minute added time that Tietz scored the 1-2 after a long ball from a short distance. But Heidenheim brought the home win under the roof. The final phase was overshadowed by an accident of a Heidenheim fan. The young man fell from the fence, probably fell on the head and had to be treated for minutes.
It would probably look like the fan fighting for his life, Heidenheim’s coach Schmidt explained at the press conference: “Let’s all keep our fingers crossed and pray. Football takes a back seat. We are currently somewhere else.”
