The opposing defense was too strong last Saturday against the weakening of the anvil attack. Neither reserve quarterback Tobias Picard nor Jonas Kronenberg, who took over later in the game, found the means to put pressure on Wuppertal’s defense. Additionally, fumbles have crept back into the anvil attack game.
So it was still up to the defense to keep the game open for as long as possible. This worked very well in the first quarter, where two Greyhounds bouts were stopped in time and only two field goals ended up on the scoreboard. But the first turnovers repeatedly brought Wuppertal into a good position on the pitch, so much so that the dams broke as early as the second quarter.
After the break, the visitors added two defensive touchdowns. First Picard threw a pick-6, then the anvil made a mistake on the snap, which Wuppertal’s defense picked up and brought to the end zone. All in all, Bizzarri’s men had a used day, as a key play Kronenberg caught two interceptions as a linebacker in the course of the match and also managed a noteworthy tackle for defeat: Leon Jäger, also a linebacker, cautioned. a lot of the quarterback.
This coming weekend, Wuppertal will be in a direct duel for promotion with a guest appearance at the Krefeld Ravens. The anvil will only be challenged again on 1 October in the home game against the Dortmund Giants. Third place at the final table is still possible with a win against Dortmund, but the anvil also depends on the corresponding results in the other places.
