Unlucky home start at the Zoo! For 70 minutes, WSV controlled the
frightened and defensively oriented newcomer. Then the recently
brought in Papic turned the tide.
First, Heinen was able to neutralize a terrible defensive lapse by
Menzel. But only 2 minutes later, the WSV goalie made a patzer
himself. After a poor defense, Heinen could only stop Teveren's "goal
man" with a foul at the penalty border. Papic converted the penalty
and a few moments later, in the manner of a classic attacker, scored
the surprising tying goal.
Desipte being weak on the wings, and playing without fire, WSV was
totally dominating the game. Yet they also needed a goalie blooper to
take the lead. The otherwise outstanding Wacht misstepped, and Weber
scored on a free kick from 12 meters.
After Walbröhl's goal for 2:0, the game appeared to be over. But
Wuppertal forgot to close the bag...
