With 18 points, the KSV, in which coach Marcel Rapp had extended his contract early until the summer of 2028, continued in the last place in the table. The 1. FC Heidenheim has four points more on the relegation rank. “The joy of the good performance outweighs,” said Kiel’s coach Marcel Rapp in a talk. “If we go through the season with this performance, we will still get enough points.” For Mainz, the draw means a damper in the fight for the Champions League: the Mainzers remain in fourth, but Leipzig is only one point behind the Rheinhessen. Mönchengladbach could take a victory on St. Pauli on Sunday. “We have to win this game,” said Mainz ‘Coach Bo Henriksen. “We had enough chances. Of course we are disappointed.” Both teams sought their salvation from the start: Mainz came to a good chance (3rd) through Jonathan Burkardt, in the 10th minute it was only thanks to the brilliant leg defense from the Mainz keeper Robin Zentner that the free -standing Lasse Rosenboom did not meet for the guest. The 32,500 fans saw the next big chance in the 19th minute when Burkardt failed on the post for the zero five. The guests left it unimpressed, shortly afterwards hundredweight was asked again when he spectaciously steered a header from Shuto Machino over the crossbar (23rd). And Kiel followed: Bernhardsson took the right penalty area, the ball hit the inner post in the left Kreuzeck and from there behind the line. Mainz remained an answer to the rebellious underdog, who deserved the leadership with the brave appearance, until the break. After the restart, the home side increased the pressure, but remained in front of the goal – such as the free kick from a promising position of Nadiem Amiri (48.) – but mostly harmless. Or were again persecuted by the bad luck, because Anthony Caci only hit the post (61.) after a fog flank. Shortly before, the Mainz vehemently demanded a penalty when KSV goalkeeper Thomas Dähne also hit the rushing Jae-Sung Lee in a successful clarification attempt in addition to the ball. Referee Frank Willenborg does not whistle. Steven Skrzybski for Kiel also failed on the aluminum just three minutes later, and Zentner was on hand on the margin. The game now seemed completely open – and Mainz came back: Weiper, who had only substituted seven minutes earlier, refined an outstanding pass from Nebel to compensate.
