Therefore, the Rheinhessen are also forced on Sunday in Augsburg to refill. That is also the goal of Mainz. “It’s about making many things better in Augsburg,” said Mainz coach Sandro Schwarz critical.
Nevertheless, he praised the fighting spirit of his team, who had finished with this “threesome” a series of six straight Bundesliga games in a row. The main reason for this was Pablo de Blasis, who scored both goals.
The first of the penalty – which was due to the video evidence only after the break and thus in (!) The half-time break was carried out – and the second ten minutes before the end after an error by the Freiburg goalkeeper.
