Grodowski did better, who skillfully completed a beautiful solo with a outside of the outside of the outside. The guests no longer had an answer. On the contrary: Julian Kania could have expanded the result, but only hit the post in added time.
Bochum is subject to Paderborn
Meanwhile, VfL Bochum’s descent continues.
