Kiel – SC Paderbon has won again after five games without a win. East Westphalia defeated Holstein Kiel 4:3 (1:1) in their stadium and secured their eighth place in the table.
Ron Schallenberg gave Paderborn the lead in front of 9,174 spectators (19th minute). Fiete Arp equalized four minutes later (23′). Then Maximilian Thalhammer (54′), Florent Muslija (74′) and Jamilu Collins (76′) gave East Westphalia a 4-1 lead. Alexander Mühling from the penalty spot (81st) and Benedikt Pichler (87th) shortened the lead, but the hosts were unable to equalize.
After two defeats, Holstein trainer Marcel Rapp had changed his team to six positions. His team was the more active at first, but the guests surprisingly took the lead. The north Germans benefited from a deflected ball when they deserved equalization. In contrast to previous encounters, Holstein did not unconditionally seek the offensive, but retreated further so as not to be overrun by the rival.
Chances were initially scarce for both sides. After falling behind, however, the North Germans became more offensive, and the game gained color and excitement. When conceding goals, the back team of the hosts made some gross blunders.
