U19 get point in Cologne, U17 lose to “Zebras”, U14 win the derby

The young shamrocks were also in action last weekend. The U19 juniors of Markus Kaya and René Lewejohann scored the first point of the still young Bundesliga season at Viktoria Köln and are thus building on the performance from the first game of the season against Dortmund. Ken Asaeda’s U17 kickers (photo) had a pitch-black day and got a “bloody nose” at MSV Duisburg. The U14 juniors, on the other hand, had reason to celebrate, as they were derby winners this week.

After just seven minutes of play, Viktoria Köln took a 1-0 lead. However, the young shamrocks took the positive aspects of the Dortmund game to heart and equalized to 1-1 just three minutes later. After that, the red-whites came into play better and implemented the plan of coaching team Markus Kaya and Rene Lewejohann to a large extent. In the last third alone, it was not possible to fully convince and take the lead.

In the second part of the game they finally took the lead through an own goal by a Viktoria player (56th), but had to accept the 2-2 equalizer a short time later. The RWO juniors didn’t manage to take their chances after that and so it was a draw in the end.

“The team implemented what we gave them and performed very bravely. We just have to play our chances more clearly. We had a few chances and could have won this game, but we’re taking the point with us and focusing on next week, “said Markus Kaya, referring to the duel with Borussia Mönchengladbach (SUN, 09/26/21, 11 a.m., Niederrhein Stadium) .

After two wins at the start of the season, the U17 suffered their first defeat at the weekend. In a hard-fought first half, Duisburg took a 1-0 lead after a standard situation (34th).

In the second half, Ken Asaeda’s team failed to turn the game around and finally had to admit defeat 5-0 to a strong opponent.

“The MSV were the better team and the defeat is deserved. We will now work through this and draw our lessons from it. But we are looking ahead and next week we want to build on the two victories at the start of the season and will attack again, ”said the coach.

In the first part of the game, the red-whites got into the game very well and created some chances. But coach Daniel Balk’s team missed using them and had to be content with a goalless draw against the “Knappen” at break.

After the break, the Schalke team took a 2-0 lead with a one-two punch. The shamrocks only had to shake each other briefly and, five minutes before the end, Caner Yalcindag scored a 1: 2 goal. But then the red-whites ran out of time and so it remained with the narrow defeat.

“Because of the strong game and the many chances we could have led to the break, if not even had to,” said “Co” Maik Reidermann after the game. “In the second half of the game we had a small break in the game after conceding goals, but we came back quickly there too. Overall, we are satisfied with the performance, but we imagined the result differently. “

Even at the break, the RWO players left no doubt about who would leave the place as the derby winner. Even before the break, RWO determined the game and led to the break tea with 3-0.

In the second part of the game, Jannick Weis’ team remained effectively in front of the goal and scored goals number four and five.

“We showed a very strong game and implemented the main training points,” summarized U14 coach Weis. “We played clearly, especially in front of the goal, and thus earned the result. I am very satisfied with the performance of the entire team and I am proud that we were able to reward ourselves with the derby victory this weekend. “
