After the "Thirds" secured a clear 5-1 home victory against SG Ahrtal Schuld II on Friday evening in Remagen, the team is in fifth place in the Kreisliga C with two matchdays remaining in the season. They are six points behind fourth place and six points ahead of sixth place. The county town team was already clearly leading 3-1 at halftime. Bilal Elgergawy scored twice.
Without their ill top scorer Almedin Ljaljic, but with Julian Kusniesz from the U23 squad, head coach Mohamed Abou-Ayda's team started against the ninth-placed team. From ABC's perspective, Kusniesz was also the player of the first half with three goal contributions. He provided the assist for Bilal Elgergawy's 1-0 goal (13'), before he himself scored an unstoppable shot from 17 meters to make it 2-0 (23'). The 2-1 goal (27') did not change the course of the game, which the hosts dominated throughout. The goal to make it 3-1 (40') at halftime was similar to the first goal of the match: Bilal Elgergawy scored after a pass from Julian Kusniesz.
Although the visiting team had the first scoring chance after the side switch, only two minutes later Furkan Kalin put a 20-meter free kick under the crossbar for a 4-1 lead (59th minute). Omer Zoranic scored the final goal of an overall superior performance with his rebound goal to make it 5-1 (80th minute), after Benedikt Ferber had previously failed to beat the visiting goalkeeper following a dynamic solo run into the box. "We are happy about the three points. At the latest with the goal to make it 3-1, we had the game completely under control and were able to manage it confidently throughout the second half, and in my opinion, deservedly win by this margin," said Mohamed Abou-Ayda about the course of the game. On Sunday, the second to last matchday of the season, the team has to play away against the second to last team in the standings, VfR Waldorf.
