FC Augsburg did not concede six games in the Bundesliga, now the Zu-Null series ended at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. There was no winner in the game. 1: 1 (0: 0) Both teams separated in Sinsheim.
The Augsburgers were still able to be satisfied. Your successful series of eleven games without defeat continues to exist, you are the only team to remain unbeaten in the Bundesliga return.
And the FCA was allowed to cheer about a record goal. The dining end, which had substituted at the second half, only needed 16 seconds for the leadership. It was the fastest jokeror of a player in the Bundesliga since the detailed data acquisition 2004/05.
FCA coach Jess Thorup was still not satisfied: “If you lead 1-0 and have the game under control, one point is disappointing. On the other hand, our performance was not as I hoped”, said Thorup of the sports show.
Series of Augsburg’s Dahmen ends after 683 minutes
The super series of Augsburg’s keeper Finn Dahmen, on the other hand, has ended. TSG striker André Kramaric ensured this. The Croatian hit the penalty after 71 minutes. Dahmen stayed with it for 683 minutes.

First a boring
In the first half it was still a bang. The Augsburgers were fully limited to defensive work and keeping their series. The guests largely left the initiative to the TSG, which, however, did not make much of it.
Only Bazoumana Touré caused a bit of excitement with his header on the post (25th).
Record goal of Augsburg’s dining
The fans hoped for more good entertainment in the second section. You should get them promptly. Some visitors were not in their seats after the break strengthening, when the ball was already in the Hoffenheim network.
And the 16-second flash gate had made a dining class: by direct acceptance and put on, he gave national goalkeeper Oliver Baumann no chance. The flank came from Cedric Zesiger.
Astonishing: dining end, substituted for Phillip Tietz, was only on the field for 16 seconds.
Controversial penalty for Hoffenheim
Now it got even more complicated for the Hoffenheimers to shoot the first of eight finals to keep the league (coach Christian Ilzer). They continued to do it.
So referee Tobias Reichel had to help. In the 71st minute, Reichel pointed to the penalty point after the ball had previously bounced to the forearm of Jeffrey Gouweleeuw from a very short distance. A very controversial decision, but all Augsburg protests didn’t help. Kramaric chipped the penalty in the middle. For the Croatian it was the 32nd attempted penalty in the Bundesliga of 36.
DFB admits: penalty was not correct
A few hours after the final whistle, the DFB admitted that Reichel’s decision was not correct. “It would have been right to let them continue to play. An intervention by the video assistant would have been appropriate”Alex Feuerherdt, Head of Communication and Media Work at DFB Schiri GmbH, told Sky.
“Even if the arm was spread out of the body, the referee’s decision is not correct for us. Because the ball came from a short distance from a teammate and was not to be expected for Gouweleeuw, especially since after blocking it changed the direction and would have flown towards the sidelines or corner flag”according to Feuerherdt.
Reichel rightly took back another penalty in favor of the Hoffenheimers shortly before the end (85th).
