However, the fans have to do without a transfer on free TV, which also underlines the meaning of the game.

Alemannia Aachen is about to stay in the league and may only need a few points to stay in the league safely. The 1. FC Saarbrücken, on the other hand, ranks in third place in the table and is seriously looking for the promotion to the 2nd league. Coach Alois Schwartz, who succeeded Rüdiger Ziehl, was able to come up with two victories in his first two third division games, including a convincing 3-0 victory against Essen and a 4: 3 against Verl. After the recent defeat in the semi-finals of the national cup against the regional league team, Schwartz expressed his disappointment with the performance of his team.

The course of the game

The game promised an exciting duel from the start. Referee Christian Ballweg led the game at 1:59 p.m. Aachen played in black and yellow, while Saarbrücken had to compete in white. Already in the first minute there was a free kick for Aachen after a foul on Ademi. In the first few minutes, Aachen dominated the game while the FCS had difficulty developing.

In the 4th minute, Saarbrücken's goalkeeper Paterok had to intervene for the first time: a dangerous cross from Gaudino walked just. After the initial dominance of the Aachener, Saarbrücken came into play better, with Olschowsky making remarkable progress in the 16th minute. With a 1-0 lead of the TSV Cottbus against Rostock, the pressure on the FCS was increased, which was still on the hunt for points.

Personnel changes and challenges

Alois Schwartz had to make some personnel changes before the game. After the defeat in the state cup, he rotated in nine positions. Paterok replaced the sick Menzel in the goal, while Multhaup came into the team for the blocked Rizzuto. This shows the challenges in front of which the team is facing while trying to achieve their goals in this decisive phase of the season.

In the 12th minute, Schwartz spoke up with an optimistic assessment of his team's efficiency. Aachen, on the other hand, had to accept a setback with a 1-2 against VfB II and wanted to rehabilitate on the Tivoli at home.

considered with all these aspects, today's game between Alemannia Aachen and 1. FC Saarbrücken promises not only sporting highlights, but also a decision about the future goals of both teams. Both the relegation and the ascent are within reach, and the players are highly motivated to master the respective challenge.

Overall, the framework conditions for a gripping duel are given that football fans will be pursued.
