SGV Freiberg slips: pressure increases after defeat in Mainz!
What an exciting but unfortunately also bitterly painful game it was for SGV Freiberg last night! After a brilliant start to the season with nine wins in a row, disillusionment is now setting in. In the Bruchwegstadion, the Freiberg team lost 1:2 against the second team 1. FSV Mainz 05. This means that the lead at the top of the table, which was once comfortable, has been reduced to just three points. The pressure is growing, and that is reflected in the last five games: Freiberg can no longer win.
In front of around 800 spectators, coach Lushtaku's team showed a committed but ultimately ineffective performance. Despite the return of captain Kehl-Gomez, who was back on the pitch after a suspension, the team was unable to create any significant chances against Mainz's well-organized defense. Mainz took the lead in the 51st minute thanks to a deflected shot from Andre Gitau. Joker Meghôn Valpoort was able to equalize in the 74th minute, but six minutes before the end it was Yunus Malli who scored the decisive 2-1 for Mainz after the Freiburg defense made a serious mistake.
The current table position
The defeat not only has a bitter aftertaste, but also puts the Freiberg team in a delicate situation. There has not been a single win in the last five games - a trend that is of great concern. Ultimately, Freiberg led the table in the Regionalliga Südwest, but with their current performance, promotion could be a long way off. This makes the upcoming game against SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz all the more important, a game that will be crucial for the Freiberg team not only for points, but also for regaining their self-confidence.
Freiberg is currently in first place in the league with a win rate of 64% and an average of 3.50 goals per game, but the last few games show an alarm mood. The result against Mainz is a wake-up call, because efficiency must be improved in the coming match so that the pursuers, such as STSV Steinbach and FSV Frankfurt, do not simply hand over the points.
The competition never sleeps
The persecutors are by no means idle. STSV Steinbach, for example, has worked its way up to second place and is waiting for a chance to catch up with Freiberg. The team impresses with overall statistics that have a win rate of 50% and an average of 3.64 goals per game. Of course, the competition is strong, and right now Freiberg has to pool all its strengths and minimize mistakes in order to maintain its lead in the table.
The challenge will only get greater for Freiberg next week with the game against SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz. It's important to keep your nerve and rekindle your fighting spirit. Ultimately, everything is in your own hands, and the team has shown in the past that it can play highly efficiently. In the coming week, the Freiberg team will have to prove that they can learn from their experiences and get back on the road to success in order to ultimately make the season successful.
