Effortless Progression of WSV in Round Two
WSV put on a captivating display at the Zoo Stadium, emerging victorious in a thrilling encounter against an unnamed opponent. The match, attended by 685 fans in temperatures around 30 degrees, saw both teams showcasing their skills and determination.
The first half of the game was marked by a series of substitutions, with Daiki Kamo, Romeo Kovarszki, Henry Mertsch, and Rebronja replacing Aldin Dervisevic, Schaub, Müller, and Aydogan. The changes seemed to invigorate WSV, as they took the lead in the 21st minute through Kilian Bielitza, who scored after a corner, with initial attempts from Dervisevic failing to find the back of the net.
However, just four minutes later, Bielitza was injured and had to leave the field temporarily, reducing WSV to ten men for a short period. Despite this setback, the team managed to hold on and even extended their lead before half-time. Aydogan scored the second goal, capitalising on a pass from Imad Sekaki, and Arambasic added a third from a distance, following a set-piece.
The second half saw more changes, with Maximilian Scharf replacing Miyamoto, and the introduction of Fritz Kleiner, who scored the second goal for WSV, set up by Amin Bouzraa. The scoring spree continued, as Sekaki found the net in the 85th minute, before Kamo sealed the victory with a header in the 88th minute, a goal that was initially disallowed for offside in the 76th minute but was eventually awarded.
Notable moments included attempts from Sekaki and Kleiner hitting the post in the 69th and 70th minutes, respectively. The match was a testament to WSV's resilience and teamwork, as they overcame adversity and injuries to secure a convincing victory.
