Keeper Milosavljev shines
The guests got into the game right away. The defense stood and keeper Dejan Milosavljev immediately shone with sensational actions: the Serb made 14 saves in the first half alone, and he even made 23 in total.
The Foxes quickly moved ahead to 7:3. They also initially acted quickly and purposefully in attack. But from the middle of the first half onwards, the guests’ missed throws and, above all, technical errors increased – there were simply too many. The Foxes found it increasingly difficult against the very physical defense of the Romanians. The Berliners even lost their lead thanks to a 5-0 run by the home side before the break.
Even after the break, the Berliners initially had defensive problems. Too many rebounds went to the hosts. In the 42nd minute, Marko Kopljar was also shown a red card after three time penalties. But the Foxes recovered defensively, regained the lead and brought the narrow lead to the finish.
