Meuselwitz. How long does a football team need to really get up to temperature? The question must certainly be answered individually. On Sunday in the Meuselwitzer Bluechip Arena in the regional league match against 1. FC Lok Leipzig one had the impression that the hosts really got going after an hour. Of course without wanting to dismiss the efforts in the first half as undercooled. But then ZFC really rolled, turned the game around and ultimately achieved a 3-2 home win against Leipzig.

If you include the usual warm-up phase before the game, it took ZFC around 90 minutes to get going. Although the “defrosting phase” before the kick-off sometimes looks very relaxed (apart from a few gymnastic exercises, which sometimes make the referees, who are also carefully prepared, smile), the opponent’s influence is clearly missing before the game. For example, the preparatory shooting practice often conveys a kind of lightness that many players lose as soon as the game starts. Even deep into the district classes, the preliminary skirmish sometimes breathes professional elegance, only to then degenerate with and under the influence of the opponent to a frequently unsuccessful physical exercise.
Locomotive uses Meuselwitzer cold start
It doesn’t usually look that bad in league four, but especially on Sunday in Meuselwitz the locals hardly got a chance in the first half against the more or less clearly dominant Probstheidaer. Lok had a deserved 2-0 lead at the break. It’s hard to say whether it was due to the better warm-up before the match. Because the ZFC was still equal up to 0:1.

Then Fabian Raithel, who later became much stronger (hotter?), made a kind of positional error that he was only able to iron out by fouling Ryan-Segon Adigo. Riccardo Grym used the penalty kick that was due. Shortly before the half-time whistle, Adigo completed a nice Lok attack on the left to make it 0:2.
“Incredible performance by my team”
The game seemed hopeless for the red and white before they were really in it. But far from it, when right-back Dominik Bock hammered in a 25-metre free-kick to the next goal in the 55th minute, the ZFC engine finally ran in the right temperature range. On the other hand, Lok trainer Almedin Civa had to state: “We didn’t recover from that until we made it 2-2.” That was due to the said left-back Raithel, who – now really warm – took a corner kick “blank standing”, as Civa noted, for the Headed equalization.

Now the Meuselwitzers were really fired up under the eyes of almost 2000 spectators and were even allowed to celebrate the 3:2 by Florian Hansch in the 84th minute. With that, the first ZFC points were also in the box for the new coach Georg-Martin Leopold. “It was an unbelievable performance by my team”, praised the coach, “we developed power with the connection. I felt like a passenger in a very nice film,” he enthused, “that was great!”

Even the cool analyst Leopold was evidently in the heat of the moment. The fact that he was already during the match was shown by his substitution immediately before the winning goal. Johannes Pistol, who had just been sent into the heated event, prepared it well for Hansch with a back pass. Pistol didn’t take too much time to ramp up in the game.
