The fact that FV Illertissen only managed a draw against SpVgg Greuther Fürth II is also due to the son of Cologne football legend Pierre Littbarski.
In the previous three games of the Bavarian regional football league, FV Illertissen had been behind, but that should actually be avoided this time. This wish did not come true, in the end it was 2:2 against the reserves of SpVgg Greuther Fürth.
In a somewhat disjointed first half of the game, the FVI got off to a better start. A shot from Nico Fundel was deflected into a corner, and in the ensuing commotion in the visitors’ penalty area, the Illertissers understandably demanded a penalty, but in vain (21′). A little later, FVI goalkeeper Felix Thiel was lucky. When he took a shot, he shot at a Fürth striker, but the rebound did not cause any damage (27th). The SpVgg Greuther Fürth now became noticeably stronger, a shot from Patrick Götzelmann was excellently defused by Tiehl (30th). The fact that the sides didn’t change without a goal was also down to him. Thiel didn’t look happy when he received a cross from Lucien Littbarski, son of Cologne icon Pierre Littbarski. Ricky Bornschein only had to hold out his foot to make it 0-1 (45th + 3).

The second half started furiously, FVI coach Holger Bachthaler obviously found the right words in the dressing room. Yannick Glessing initially headed towards SpVgg goalkeeper Dimitrios Gkoumas. He was able to fend off the shot at first, but on his second action Gkoumas committed a completely unnecessary foul on Daniele Gabriele. Gabriele himself converted the penalty to equalize (47th). Now the audience saw a different and much more entertaining game with the home team predominating – and soon also their opening goal. Furkan Kircicek had no trouble making it 2-1 from five (54′). Shortly afterwards, Gkoumas had to stretch a lot for a Gabriele free kick (58th).

FV Illertissen – SpVgg Greuther Fürth II – coach comment

They demonstrated that the Fürth team can also play football with the 2-2 equalizer. Daniel Adlung, a former professional at VfL Wolfsburg, did the remarkable preparatory work, and Borschein again gave Thiel no chance to defend with a powerful shot (62′). Nevertheless, Illertissen remained dominant and had more chances. Gabriele, Glessing and Kilic missed their chances to score the winning goal (68th, 73rd, 85th). Immediately before the end of the game, Thiel kept the tie with a shot from Mateus Kolenda (90th + 4). “Unfortunately, that little bit of luck was missing,” said FVI coach Holger Bachthaler.
FV Illertissen: Thiel – Neuberger (46th Kilic), Frisorger, Jeck, Fundel (85th Omore) – Gölz, Kircicek (76th Schwarzholz), Pudic (66th Zeller), Mannhardt, Gabriele (88th Strobel) – Glessing.
