Thanks to Tim Siersleben in the Bundesliga, 1. FC Heidenheim can dream of moving to the 16 final in the conference league. Shortly before the end, the defender scored the acclaimed goal 2-1 (0: 1) during the playoffs at FC Copenhagen. The plan also began to perceive confidence for the relegation battle. This continues on Sunday (7:30 p.m./Dazn) with the difficult home match against the European Cup candidate FSV Mainz 05.
« We do not release a match, » said Captain Patrick Mainka in advance and hoped that the Heidenheimers in the parking stadium could « create the momentum » after four championship losses. But at the beginning, they did not succeed. The Copenhaguers were still higher in the first half, but had to wait for Jordan Larsson’s head until night. Rodrigo Huescas’ attempt on the transverse bar did not lack centimeters (21st). The guests only became stronger than after restarting and rewarded for their increase in the performance of Thomas Keller (59th) and Advanced Siersleben (85th)
If the Heidenheimers prevail in the duel with the Danish record champion thanks to this starting point, after the return match Thursday (6:45 p.m.), you face a meeting with Chelsea. Already in the league, they met the Londoners (0: 2). Vitória Guimarães could also wait as an adversary to the next target.
The hosts, although they finished their winter break with the match against the FCH, turned out to be passable. The first chance also went to the Copenhagener account. Frank Feller directed a head of Huescas on the crossbar. But Heidenheim also found a little better. Marvin Pierringer failed due to the former Youth Guardian of Heidenheim, Diant Ramaj (24th). The guests were maintained against this for a long time, but then went to the cabin with a gap. Former Schalke Larsson flew in the center and marked the deserved 1-0.
After the change of sides, Ramaj had more to do. The goalkeeper is spoken to Leonardo Scientific and Sirord Conteh (51./53.) The goalkeeper against Leonardo Scientific and Sirlord, who signed up in Copenhagen during the winter holidays and was awarded to Copenhagen. It has become a little heated now. Paul Wanner missed the goal in the second half, in which the guests barely allowed anything. But then Siersleben turned the game and applauded the Heidenheimers.
