German Jag Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 A mixed week. Was extremely saddened by the death of John Lambie. Spent a good few hours watching stuff on youtube as well as jagszone.Friday I hit the big 50, so day off work & down to Stuttgart. Korean food plus a gig by „The Prosecution“ on the Friday night. (yes, birthday caird pish).On to the football, Stuttgart & H96 (the two promoted teams from last year, both having surely done enough to avoid relegation).Overall an enjoyable game, Erik Thommy putting the hosts in front after 53 minutes. Looked like being a long journey home, until Niklas Füllkrug was able to get the injury time equaliser in a 1-1 draw.Speculative long-ball into the box from Miiko Albornoz, with Füllkrug getting a looping header on target over the keeper.Only the 2nd time at the Mercedes-Benz Arena, though have to say it plus the stadium in Frankfurt are my favorites as an away fan. Next up a presumable pumping at home to Bayern Munich. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 If I was playing in this game for Freiburg I would be suffering from a complete cranial detachment at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Brightside Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 What would’ve happened if the penalty and VAR thing was after the final whistle and not half time? [emoji848] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 (edited) Imagine if the keeper saved it, it rebounds back to the striker and he puts it in the net? Goal or not? The half is over, would imagine he would have to had disallowed it. Edited April 16, 2018 by Karpaty 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The half is over, would imagine he would have to had disallowed it. No goal, basically you only get one shot at it (even if the whole VAR thing hadn't happened). - Law 14.1: Additional time is allowed for a penalty kick to be taken and completed at the end of each half of the match or extra time. When additional time is allowed, the penalty kick is completed when, after the kick has been taken, the ball stops moving, goes out of play, is played by any player (including the kicker) other than the defending goalkeeper, or the referee stops play for an offence by the kicker or the kicker’s team. If a defending team player (including the goalkeeper) commits an offence and the penalty is missed/saved, the penalty is retaken. Jonathan Pearce clueless as ever when it come to technology - talks about a restart, surely that would be the start of the second half? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t go to VAR, however no one knows what the ref was told from the booth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Clyde Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 My cousin suggested we go to a German match or two next season. He supports Kaiserslautern and I like Karlsruhe. Would probably fly via London, as it’s much cheaper than Birmingham and he lives there. Half thinking about going to Strasbourg as it looks nice and is only 40 minutes on the train from Karlsruhe. You don’t seem to be able to fly direct to Kaiserslautern, Frankfurt is the closest option. Think you can fly direct up Karlsruhe and Strasbourg though. Anyone have experience of matches in Germany. Is it easy getting match tickets. Also, is there a train pass you can get which would go across the border from Germany and France? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karlsruhe/Baden-baden airport has Ryanair flights from Stanstead as well as Edinburgh. Also the option of flying to Stuttgart. Easyjet from Gatwick & Edinburgh. Eurowings from Heathrow, Flybe from Birmingham & Ryanair from Manchester, As well as the proper Frankfurt airport with numerous UK connections there‘s also Ryanair ‚Frankfurt‘-Hahn with some UK flughts although travel to from there is supposed to be a pain. As regards trains check the Bahn international site. Getting cross-border trains is relatively easy. Not sure about any passes. As regards match tickets, despite the local rivalry, if they‘re meeting next year will mean 3. Liga and will be easy to get. Stadium in Kaiserslautern is just under 50.000, in Karlsruhe ca. 29.000. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Jag Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 An even 1st half on Saturday with 0-0 being the correct score. Introduction of Müller & Lewandowski, both of whom scored just after coming on killed the game as a contest. Rudy got the 3rd with a minute to go. Mext up an overnighter. Down to Hoffenheim on Friday afternoon staying over in Heidelberg. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 That's one hell of a drop in stature for them. What happened?Today I'm off to Victoria Köln v Wattenscheid in a League 2 equivalent fixture. Can't wait! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Great game yesterday. Game finished 8-3 to Victoria but we left at 6 to try get back watch our own matchesmOnly around 20 or 30 Wattenscheid fans and not a big fan culture at Victoria but incredible game where almost everything went in.Got to stand literally at pitch side as my friend was in a wheelchair, nothing beats going to a game.Victoria need to finish top ( currently 2nd) to reach the promotion play off into the 3rd league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Jag Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 Another game day, another loss for H96.Early finish at work on Friday, then train to Heidelberg and onwards to Sinsheim.Some Keystone Cop defending (Sané) for Hoffenheim‘s 1st, although keeper Tschauner coold have done better as well. After conceding H96 managed to play a bit with Karaman getting the equaliser 8 minutes later. A well struck 2nd (by subsequent hat-trick scorer Kramaric), followed by Tschauner getting caught out in no-mans land gave the hosts a deserved 3-1 win.Next up, Hertha Berlin which is the final home game of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
German Jag Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 Last home game of the season saw H96 ensure their BL1 status for next season with a convincing 3-1 win at home to Hertha Berlin.Beautiful sunny day, with Martin Harnik getting the home team off to a flyer, scoring in the 4th minute. A double dunt from Salif Sané & Niklas Füllkrug just before half-time, and although Davie Selke got one back in midway through the 2nd half, result was never in doubt.Being the final home game was also a farewell to Schalke bound Sané as well as Wolfsburg bound Felix Klaus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
