FC Gießen convinces with a 3-1 win against KSV Hessen Kassel in the Waldstadion

FC Gießen laid an impressive game against KSV Hessen Kassel last Saturday in the Waldstadion and celebrated a deserved victory with 3: 1. Around 1,600 spectators saw how the Gießen team, under the direction of coach Daniyel Cimen, showed their strongest performance of the ongoing regional league season in this encounter.

The first half clearly belonged to the host. With an early double strike within just five minutes, FC Gießen was able to lay the foundation for this success. Tolga Duran, who represented the captain Wessam Abdel-Ghani, brought Gießen in the lead in the 15th minute. The goal fell after a solo by Arcanjo Köhler, who tears apart the defense of the Kasseler due to a double pass with Davide Itter and then served Duran.

Five minutes after Duran’s goal it was Younes Ebnoutalib who scored his third goal with a cool head and clever game. After a intercepted corner kick, the Gießeners quickly moved and Siebert served Ebnoutalib with an excellent pass from the right side. The pressure of the FC Gießen on the entire Kassel team was unmistakable in this phase, and the spectators felt the momentum that developed in favor of the home team.

A crucial moment followed in the 60th minute when Dominik Rummel increased to 3-0 after a corner from Duran. This goal was not only a preliminary decision, but also a demonstration of the dominance that FC Gießen radiated throughout the game. After Rummel's goal, the hope of the Kassel fans fell and they ultimately fell silent in the guest block.

Despite a personal misfortune by Younes Ebnoutalib, who achieved an own goal in the 88th minute, this seemed more like a footnote in the successful game balance for Gießen. Coach Daniyel Cimen was correspondingly satisfied and praised his team for the concentrated and committed style of play.

The Gießen players showed that they had learned from the mistakes of the previous week. After the defeat against FSV Mainz 05 II, they had dealt intensively with their weaknesses, especially with regard to individual mistakes and the lack of efficiency in front of the goal. Duran said about the learning process: "We knew that if we turn it off, we have a huge chance of the three points."

characterized by a solid team performance and a stable defensive, FC Gießen offered its fans a real football-delicious bites. Bilal Zabadne, the goalkeeper of FC Gießen, had some important parades, especially in the first half, which contributed to the fact that his team went into the cabin with a comfortable tour. "It was important that I was coming. That could have been mentally difficult," said Zabadne about a decisive rescue operation.

FC Gießen made it clear that they can not only assert themselves as a promoted in the regional league, but also have the potential to squint at the upper table positions. With this constant and strong performance, the way for further victories is paved, and the Gießen fans should be excited to see what the coming season will still have.
