Cottbus wins spectacularly 2-1 against Ulm and stays second in the table!
On today's pitch day in the 3rd league RBB24 Good news for all Energie Cottbus fans. The team won 2-1 against SSV Ulm 1846 and celebrated their fifth competitive win in a row. In front of 10,124 spectators in the Donaustadion, Cottbus showed off its best side and vehemently defended second place in the table.
The game started strong defensively, with both teams struggling to create real scoring chances. Cottbus had an opportunity with a header through Tim Campulka in the 25th minute, but it went just over the goal. Ulm countered in the 29th minute, but Lucas Röser found his match in Cottbus' Henry Rorig, who decisively blocked the shot.
Tension in the second half
As is usual in the traditional territory of Lausitz, the Cottbus team turned up the heat in the second half. They clearly took control of the game. The efforts paid off in the 67th minute: A foul on Erik Engelhardt led to a penalty, which Tolcay Cigerci coldly converted and gave the home team a 1-0 lead Kicker reported.
But the joy wasn't to last long. In the 84th minute, Max Scholze surprised the Cottbus defense with a long-range shot and equalized. Despite the setback, Cottbus was not discouraged and continued to fight. Coach Wollitz's team showed strong nerves and rewarded themselves in stoppage time: Erik Engelhardt grabbed the ball and scored the winning goal in the 90th +4 minute, which once again demonstrated his impressive form - he has always scored at least one goal in the last five games. A variant that can be rated as clever has paid off.
Statistics and outlook
Cottbus has now won all three of its last games under the pressure of the international break and is firmly in second place. In contrast, Ulm had to accept a defeat under interim coach Moritz Glasbrenner after three unbeaten games. A situation like this shows how important it is to be able to come out of difficult phases stronger.
Cottbus's achievements to date can also be demonstrated by the comprehensive statistics on the website FBref which already provides a wealth of data and basic information about European and national teams. A real balm for data lovers who want to know more about the players and their performance.
With a view to the next tasks, Cottbus will be concerned with continuing the positive trend. It remains to be seen whether we will be able to continue the series in the coming games and attack the league lead. One thing is certain: with this enthusiasm and team spirit, great things are possible!
