Exhausting draw: Walldorf and Gießen inspire with 4:4!

Last Sunday, the fans in Mörfelden-Walldorf experienced a real goal festival: SV Rot-Weiss Walldorf and FC Giessen drew 4-4 after 90 exciting minutes. This means that the situation in the Hessenliga remains tense, especially for the Walldorfers, who have been waiting for a win for three games.

The game, which was one of the most entertaining of the season, started promisingly for Walldorf: Tewen Spamer opened the game with a goal in the third minute. Just a few minutes later, Tim Grünewald made it 2-0 with a penalty. But Giessen quickly made it clear that they were not willing to simply give up the points. Mirco Geisler and Tolga Duran equalized within a minute and the game was open again.

After the halftime score was 2:2, Giessen caused a sensation again in the second half. Geisler gave the guests a 3-2 lead in the 57th minute. However, Walldorf did not allow himself to be discouraged and equalized to 3-3 through Nathan Doganay. Shortly before the end it seemed as if Giessen could clinch victory with another goal from Duran, but Hady Kallo scored the decisive 4-4 in the 83rd minute and secured Walldorf a point.

For Walldorf it is now a matter of aiming for a home win in the coming games.

The next challenges are already looming: Next Saturday, Walldorf will face SC 1960 Hanau, while Giessen will face CSC 03 Kassel at the same time. The Hessenliga, with the current championship, which has a lot of chances for promotion in the Regionalliga Südwest, remains exciting. Only the best teams can secure the coveted places, while the bottom teams have to be relegated to the association leagues. The weather for the upcoming match could be crucial for the teams' performances, but also offers an incentive for fans and players alike to face the competition with fresh enthusiasm.

The Hessenliga, which was known as the Oberliga Hessen until 2008 and includes 18 teams, is the fifth largest venue in the German football structure and is governed by the Hessian Football Association. The number of spectators counts here, because every encounter can have a decisive influence on the course of the season.
