The DSC defends it here as airy as in the first leg, but we are still missing the goal. Heusser crosses a free kick from the left half-field deep into the sixteen, from nine meters Prtajin comes relatively unchallenged to the header. But this is not a problem for Fraisl.

Of course, the stadium woke up to this early lead after the fans had reprimanded their own team during the warm-up. But the first few minutes also show that the guests are a little shocked by this goal.

And straight away the next thing, contractions are already there in the Schüco Arena. Jäkel shoots only Hollerbach in a liberation, from there the game device jumps left into the penalty area to Prtajin. However, he cannot process this properly and is thus ultimately prevented from completing by Hüsing. The subsequent corner brings no danger.

Now the chance on the other side. Ezeh crosses wide to the far post from the left, where Prtajin takes the ball directly with the inside. This comes as a bounce towards the goal, but then goes just over it. Fraisl would probably have been there too.

Tooor for Arminia Bielefeld, 1:0 by Fabian Klos
There is indeed the early hit for Arminia. A long punch from Fraisl slips through to Lasme in the penalty area, who heads to Klos. The captain volleys the game device from a central position of 16 meters, the leather hits the bottom left. But Stritzel doesn’t look good there, the ball slips under his body.

Klos goes straight ahead, is first fouled and then fouls himself. He wants to bring in emotions here today.

As you can see in the opening minutes, the hosts’ changes in personnel also result in a change of formation. It’s a back three or five where Hack acts as a very attacking full-back on the right.

Then the ball rolls. Labor Wiesbaden has started.

game start
20:43
At this moment, the teams step onto the lawn together with referee Christian Dingert. The game can start in a few minutes.
20:32
And then in the first leg, which shouldn’t be forgotten, there was also the terrible excesses of the Bielefeld fans. They caused the game to be interrupted for 20 minutes, fired rockets at the lawn and tried to get into the interior. It is only thanks to the courageous intervention of Fabian Klos that the situation did not escalate completely. Arminia is therefore appearing today with a special jersey with the lettering “Fairplay”, which is also explicitly aimed at the supporters. Guest coach Kauczinski is particularly pleased that fans are allowed to be in the stadium today: “Excluding fans partially or even completely in such an important game makes no sense. We also want a full stadium with this special atmosphere.” Hopefully there will be this atmosphere, albeit in a peaceful mood.
20:22
The mood in Wiesbaden, on the other hand, is of course completely different. The guests completely convinced with their straightforward game, which Arminia partly played against the wall. Then there was the callousness in front of the goal, which rounded off an overall great game from Wehen’s point of view. Since there will probably be room for counterattacks via the fast Hollerbach and Ezeh due to the starting situation today, nothing should go wrong with a similar attitude of the team today. The 2nd Bundesliga is calling, but of course coach Kauczinski warns as expected: “I’m expecting a fighting team, so we have to be prepared for a stormy Alm overall.”
20:11
There really isn’t much to say about this game. Arminia has their backs to the wall after the bitter and deserved 0: 4 smack from the first leg. The visor must be completely open from minute one if the surprise and thus relegation is to succeed somehow. In the run-up to the game, coach Koschinat reported on his build-up work: “I’ve had a lot of conversations without being too understanding, you have to hold the lads accountable now.” The performance in the first leg does not give much reason for hope.
19:55
To start, let’s take a look at the lineups. Uwe Koschinat makes five changes for the hosts compared to the devastating first leg. Hüsing, Bello, Kanurić, Consbruch and Klos will replace Gebauer, Oczipka, Prietl, Rzatkowski and Serra in the first eleven. In particular, the acquisition of captain Klos had of course become apparent, Consbruch comes back after a yellow card suspension. Klünter is still absent, Ramos and Okugawa are injured. Wiesbaden coach Markus Kauczinski does not rotate, as expected, why should he. He has the same squad as five days ago, which means that goalkeeper Lyska and Bauer can only sit in the stands due to injuries. However, the performance has of course given no reason for a change.
19:45
Welcome to the relegation second leg in the fight for the 2nd Bundesliga, Arminia Bielefeld and Wehen Wiesbaden meet. Kick-off in the Schüco Arena is at 8:45 p.m.!
