Captain Mika Hanraths (28th) and Charlison Benschop (60th) scored for Aachen. The Kiel team continues next Saturday (3:30 p.m./Sky) at the historic league opener at TSG Hoffenheim. After the rise of the storks, a team from the northernmost federal state is playing in the upper house for the first time. At the Tivoli, the hosts kept up well from the start. However, once they were sleeping, Holstein struck. After a cross from Finn Porath, Machino headed in unchallenged. After that, Aachen was at least on par. Anton Heinz hit a corner sharply in front of the Kiel goal, Hanraths held out his leg – and equalized. Before the break, Aachen’s Benschop (39′) aimed just wide before Heinz (44′) forced Holstein goalkeeper Timon Weiner to make a save. After half-time, both teams fought for control of the game, with Aachen continuing to get their chances – and capitalizing on them. When he finished to make it 2-1, Benschop shot himself at his supporting leg, making the ball unstoppable for Weiner. As a result, the Kiel team ran, captain Lewis Holtby failed with a shot past Alemannia keeper Marcel Johnen (62nd), before Benedikt Pichler narrowly missed just a minute later. When Rosenboom scored just three minutes after coming on as a substitute, Holstein pushed for a last-minute win – and the final act was also reserved for the 22-year-old.
