Dynamo Dresden top the table again after 2:0 against Freiburg
Dynamo Dresden have regained the lead in the 3rd soccer league. On Saturday, the Saxons regained top spot with a 2:0 (1:0) win over SC Freiburg II despite having played one game less. Former Freiburg player Luca Herrmann had already put the hosts ahead in the third minute with a long-range shot from 48 meters. In front of 30,456 spectators, Robin Meißner (86th minute) marked the final score with his first ever Dynamo goal. With their eleventh home win in a row, Dresden equaled a third league record set by Eintracht Braunschweig in the 2010/2011 season.
The quick lead made the visitors rather strong. With their assured play, they often pinned the league leaders in their half and also created a number of chances. Mika Baur (21st), Lukas Ambros (27th) and Fabian Rüdlin (45.+1) in particular came close to equalizing. Dynamo revealed unknown weaknesses in their internal communication at the back. It was only after 30 minutes that coach Markus Anfang's charges found their way back into the game, but they did not create any particularly good opportunities.
Dynamo also had the first chance at the start of the second half, but Jakob Lemmer (46) stumbled. Both teams played with an open goal, with the hosts having the clearer chances. Jakob Lemmer (56') and Lemmer (61') both failed to score with Pascal Fallmann and Luca Marino clearing off the line. Freiburg had more possession and the better passing ratio, but lacked a finisher in the penalty area. Dynamo survived this period of sustained pressure and launched a couple of counter-attacks, one of which Meißner converted, while Dennis Borkowski only hit the crossbar.
Despite their efforts, SC Freiburg II could not overcome Dynamo Dresden's lead in the 3rd league. Former Freiburg player Luca Herrmann's goal for Dynamo in the 3rd minute and Robin Meißner's late strike in the 86th minute secured Dynamo Dresden's win against their 3rd league rival, SC Freiburg II.
