After a lightning start, Meppen was already 2-0 ahead
The Emsländer, who were no longer concerned, continued to play freely and dominated the action. Braunschweig didn’t get access for a long time and allowed way too much. In the tenth minute, Jonas Fedl almost made it 2-0, six minutes later it happened: The strong Richard Sukuta-Pasu headed in from a Markus cross Ballmert in.
Even after that, the BTSV didn’t necessarily get in front of the hosts’ goal – but at least they had their first real chance to connect. Lion Lauberbach scored from close range after a cross from Jan-Hendrik Marx (34′).
Braunschweig Ko in the final minutes
A glimmer of hope for the Schiele team, who went about their work with much more pressure and aggressiveness after the break. And it was also rewarded: Lauberbach headed a long ball to Enrique Pena Zauner, who shot from 14 meters. The moved up Marx extended the ball with his toe – 2:2 (68th)!
Would Eintracht still make it? The signs were good. Especially since Meppens Dombrowka had to leave the field. But substitute Rene Guder (87th) scored the winning goal for Meppen after a counterattack, who celebrated the first three after twelve games without a win and gave Braunschweigers hanging heads.
SVM coach Schmitt: “Big game”
“Leugers takes a penalty in his farewell game, Guder the last goal – only football writes such stories,” said SVM coach Rico Schmitt: “I saw a team fighting passionately for this win. It was a painful time in 2022 , and then such a cracker game.”
