„The referee decided the game today.“
After 13 unbeaten second-division matches, SV Darmstadt 98 suffered their first defeat this Friday evening. Three unfortunate minutes just before halftime, during which Patric Pfeiffer was sent off and Vincent Vermeij scored twice, paved the way for Dresden's victory. After the match, the focus was primarily on the differing assessments of two very similar incidents by the refereeing team – incidents which both coaches subsequently evaluated identically.
Undefeated streak ends
For the first time since October, Darmstadt 98 finished a league match without any points: SV 98 lost 3-1 (2-0) to SG Dynamo Dresden. After a controversial red card against Patric Pfeiffer (42nd minute), the home side scored two goals in first-half stoppage time to secure the victory.
„Schiedsrichter hat heute das Spiel entschieden“
Nach zuvor 13 ungeschlagenen Zweitliga-Spielen muss sich der SV Darmstadt 98 an diesem Freitagabend erstmals wieder geschlagen geben. Drei unglückliche Minuten kurz vor der Pause, in denen Patric Pfeiffer vom Platz gestellt wurde und Vincent Vermeij doppelt traf, leiteten den Sieg für Dresden ein. Nach dem Spiel stand insbesondere die unterschiedliche Bewertung des Schiedsrichter-Gespann von zwei sehr ähnlichen Szenen im Fokus. Zwei Szenen, die beide Trainer hinterher deckungsgleich bewerteten.
Ungeschlagen-Serie reißt
Zum ersten Mal seit Oktober beenden die Lilien ein Ligaspiel ohne Zählbares: Mit 1:3 (0:2) unterliegt der SV 98 bei der SG Dynamo Dresden. Nach einer strittigen Roten Karte gegen Pfeiffer (42.) brachten die Hausherren zwei Tore in der Nachspielzeit des ersten Durchgangs auf die Siegerstraße.
