Mülheim FC Struggles in Warm-Up Game Against DV Solingen, Remains Optimistic for Cup Match
Mülheim FC faced a challenging start in their warm-up game against DV Solingen, as they found themselves 1:5 down within the first six minutes of the second half. Despite this setback, the young team, with an average age of around 20 years, demonstrated resilience and fought back, equalizing the score in the 11th minute. However, Solingen responded swiftly, scoring again just before half-time to lead 2:1.
The defeat, with a final score of 2:9, was a clear setback for Mülheim FC. However, interim coach Bilal Kayaoglu remains optimistic about the upcoming cup game against SC Velbert, scheduled for August 10. Kayaoglu believes that the first half was decisive for Mülheim, as the team fielded a squad very close to their first eleven.
Goalkeeper Jaden-Raphael Bagh, who saved a penalty during the game, demonstrated his potential with his eighth Oberliga appearance. Bagh's impressive performance, along with the team's determination to fight back, offers a glimmer of hope for Mülheim FC.
After relegation from the Oberliga, Mülheim has undergone a major overhaul, presenting a total of 23 new signings. The team has had mixed results in previous test games, drawing with Sportfreunde Wanne-Eickel, SSV Buer, and TuS Heven, losing to SV Genc Osman Duisburg (0:4) and Ratingen 04/19 II (2:5), but winning against Firtinaspor Herne (4:2).
Kayaoglu believes that Mülheim's home advantage will be significant in the cup game, as they are known for being tough and not giving away points at home. Mülheim FC's first competitive game of the new season is against SC Velbert in the Niederrheinpokal first round.
