KSC Shines with a 13:0 Victory Against VFB Gaggenau

A Bright Summer Day for Football

On July 4, 2026, the sun was shining brightly in Gaggenau, setting a perfect stage for the second match of the RegioTour, presented by stadtmobil. The atmosphere was vibrant at the Traischbach Stadium, where fans decked out in blue and white eagerly awaited to see their team, KSC, in action. The stadium was buzzing with excitement as families, including young fans bouncing on a bouncy castle, enjoyed a variety of culinary delights before the game.

The Match Begins with a Bang

The match kicked off with referee Niklas Pfau blowing the whistle. Within just four minutes, the KSC squad struck first. Mateo Kritzer showcased his skills by scoring the opening goal, a header coming from a well-placed corner taken by Christoph Kobald. Even though the Gaggenau goalkeeper made an impressive save, Kritzer’s determination paid off with the follow-up shot.

Jason Ponente Ramirez, one of KSC’s talented new signings, made his mark shortly after, netting the second goal with clinical precision, courtesy of a clever assist from Tim Civeja in the 11th minute. The home team, despite the mounting pressure, fought valiantly to keep the scoreline from bulging further.

However, KSC’s relentless effort saw Noah Rupp score a spectacular direct free-kick in the 38th minute, elevating the score to 3:0 by halftime. Coach Max Senft used the break to overhaul the squad, giving fresh legs a chance to shine.

The Second Half: A Scoring Frenzy

The second half began with the players who had just come off a strong first half engaged in autograph signing, but KSC’s new lineup wasted no time showcasing their offensive prowess. Shio Fukuda initiated a whirlwind of goals by scoring in the 56th minute to make it 4:0. This was just the beginning; Noel Eichinger quickly followed with two goals within the next 14 minutes (57th and 71st), showcasing KSC’s attacking depth.

The highlight of the match came when Sebastian Jung and Marvin Wanitzek executed a breathtaking passing sequence, resulting in Wanitzek scoring the eighth goal in the 72nd minute.

Despite the daunting score, VFB Gaggenau persevered, throwing themselves into challenges and rising to the occasion, embodying the spirit of sportsmanship. However, Fukuda’s second goal in the 74th minute further exacerbated the deficit to 9:0.

Marvin Wanitzek made sure to add to the tally with a penalty in the 77th minute, setting the stage for three more goals in quick succession, rounding the final score to an astonishing 13:0. Fukuda and Eichinger finished with a remarkable show of skill, sealing their names in KSC history.

A Memorable Afternoon

The match concluded with KSC dominating the field, and the home crowd’s spirit undeterred. In total, the two RegioTour games produced 40 goals, translating to a commendable sum of €2,000 being donated to a charity. Special thanks were extended to VFB Gaggenau for their warm hospitality and for creating an enjoyable environment for all.
