REGENSBURG – SV Darmstadt 98 started the 2022/23 season in the second Bundesliga with a defeat. In the 0:2 (0:1) against Jahn Regensburg, there was a lot going on against the lilies, especially in the first half with an early goal and dismissal.
–
Marcel shoes: Darmstadt’s keeper was powerless on both goals and otherwise only rarely had to intervene against long stretches of conservative Upper Palatinate. A thankless party. Note 3
Frank Ronstadt (bis 82.): Started at right-back for Bader and looked poor against goalscorer Mees after just 17 seconds. Catched up after a shaky start. Nevertheless, a mixed game of the former Würzburg. grade: 4
Thomas Isherwood (up to 70th): Often came a step too late, especially in the early stages, and was unable to stabilize the central defense. When he conceded the second goal, he also pushed the ball over the line with his toes. Had to make room for Vilhelmsson in the closing stages Grade: 4.5
–
Patric Pfeiffer: A very unfortunate start to the season for the 22-year-old. Got a yellow card early on and had a good chance to equalize after that. With his second foul of the game, Pfeiffer was sent off after around 35 minutes with a yellow card – a tough decision overall. Grade: 4.5
Fabian Holland: The captain intervened again and again in the attack. Showed a solid game with no major mistakes on his side. But Holland too rarely managed to generate dangerous actions. Grade: 3.5
Klaus Gjasula: As always, came into play through his physique and plugged many holes. Moved into the back four after Pfeiffer was sent off. A good game from the Albania international. Note 3
Emir Karic: Should put pressure on the left, but he rarely managed to do that. Weakest lily on Saturday. Was logically replaced by Magnus Warming at the break. Can do a lot more than he often shows. grade: 5
Matthew Bader: The offensive right-back was allowed to try a little further up the field at the start of the season. All in all, Bader didn’t do enough to put Phillip Tietz, the only leader, in a good final position. Grade: 3.5
Tobias Kempe (until 82nd): As always the man for the standards. Challenged and distributed the balls and thus always put his teammates in a good position. But even the veteran couldn’t give the game a decisive turn. Note 3
Marvin Mehlem (until 82nd): Should ensure the creative moments together with Tobias Kempe. After half an hour he conquered the ball, but missed the equalizer because he missed Tietz, who was in a better position. Remained rather pale otherwise. Grade: 4.5
Phillip Tietz: Was the only tip after Luca Pfeiffer’s departure against Regensburg. Toiled, lamented and toiled and was a trouble spot. But it became clear that he lacks a strike partner like Luca Pfeiffer. grade: 4
Magnus Warming (ab 46.): The Dane replaced the weak Karic on the left and immediately brought more life into the Darmstadt game. Strong debut. Grade: 2.5
