Patient to the Lucky Punch

You might think a 1-0 away win is a common result in football, something completely commonplace. However, looking at SV 98 and the Lilies' recent history, it quickly becomes clear that this narrow away victory is a rarity for the Darmstadt team. Want proof? It was the first time since November last year that the South Hesse side had ever won away from home; the last time they kept a clean sheet was in April 2024. And for a 1-0 away win, you have to travel all the way back to March 2023. That was when the Lilies last won by that scoreline. Where? Exactly, on a Friday evening in Nürnberg. The away win in the analysis.

„We are overjoyed with the result“

For a long time, everything pointed to a goalless draw in Nürnberg, before Killian Corredor gave SV 98 a chance to celebrate deep into injury time. The Lilies were correspondingly happy after the final whistle. We've summarised the reactions.
