SC Oberhausen before the fate game: victory against Bottrop essential!
The SC 1920 Oberhausen is facing a decisive game after a disappointing phase. The past derby defeats, most recently against DJK Arminia Lirich (1: 2) and SuS 21 Oberhausen (3: 4), have faltered their promotion rooms. Before the upcoming meeting with the fourth -placed SV Rhenania Bottrop, which takes place on Friday, March 7, at 7:30 p.m., the expectations are high.
coach Thorsten Möllmann expresses himself: "Only one victory counts." The SC Oberhausen has already played 21 games in the current season, taking four draws and three defeats. The team lacks an adequate exploitation of opportunities, which has a significant impact on the table situation. Möllmann criticizes the weak annual start and demands an immediate improvement in order not to lose sight of the goal, the promotion to the next division.
opportunities and residues
With currently six points behind the second in the table Rhenania Bottrop and seven points on the leader Sterkrade 06/07, the situation is tense. A victory could bring Oberhausen to Bottrop on three points, while a defeat could have serious consequences for the season. Möllmann shows that if you defeat, preparation for the next season could easily begin, a view that is reluctant to hear both players and fans.
A ray of hope for SC Oberhausen is the Talent Timur Ertrural, which was already involved in over 20 goals this season. Möllmann, who is also his grandfather, sees the danger that whereabouts in the district league could result in the loss of the 20-year-old striker. Interested parties from the Oberliga and two clubs from the regional league have already expressed their interest in Erural, which also exerts pressure on the entire team.
lack of opportunities as a problem
But not just an issue is an issue. Möllmann also emphasizes the achievements of other players, including striker Yousef Allouche, who could only score eleven goals this season, while he would be able to meet significantly more. This inefficient goal yield is identified as a central problem that has to be remedied in order to protect the opportunities for advancement.
The situation in the football association in general is also precarious. The number of teams at the district level in the FLVW has fallen below 2,500 for the first time and is currently 2,445. This is a historical low, because a few years ago there were almost 2,700 teams. The discussion about the fairness of the prerequisites for the promoters to the district league is in progress, which further increases the pressure on the teams and clubs.
for the SC 1920 Oberhausen on Friday not only counts the result against Rhenania Bottrop, but also the ability to increase your own performance sustainably. Möllmann no longer demands excuses and wants his players to finally take advantage of the opportunities that are in the game.
How this critical situation will develop remains to be seen. The top game could already be groundbreaking for the rest of the season, and the fans hope for a turn for positive.
