The SC Paderborn has played a lead twice in the promotion race of the 2nd Bundesliga and missed the leap to the relegation rank. The relegation candidate Eintracht Braunschweig, which was harmless and error -prone to long distances, turned the game and defeated the East Westphalia spectacularly with 3: 2 (1: 1).
For the Lower Saxony, the surprising victory was an important success in the struggle in the relegation zone. For the time being, the club is tied in the table with the 15th Prussian Münster, who will play in Düsseldorf on Saturday.
Filip bilbija (26th minute) and Adriano Grimaldi (48th) each ensured the leading goal of the guests. In front of 20,283 spectators in the Eintracht stadium, Richmond Tachie (44th) and substitute players Rayan Philippe (71st) and Leon Bell Bell (78th) scored the goals for Braunschweig.
Paderborn better over long distances
The Paderborn determined the action on the pitch for about 70 minutes, Grimaldi grazed the latte with his header (8th). His next header landed at Bilbija, who transported the ball into the goal with his chest.
But the team of Eintracht coach Daniel Schering, who had spent several years as a player and assistant coach as a Paderborn native, came back with a nice volley goal from Tachie.
In the urge phase of the SCP right after the beginning of the second half, the strong Grimaldi achieved the lead again. But the often overwhelmed hosts shocked the Paderborns through the goals of Philippe and Bell Bell. Grimaldi still missed the equalization (83.), so that in the end Braunschweig actually cheered.
