Second win in a row: Ulm beats Braunschweig 3-1

SSV Ulm achieved its first home win against Eintracht Braunschweig since returning to the 2nd Bundesliga. The promoted team celebrated their second win in a row with the 3-1 (2-0) win against Lower Saxony and climbed towards midfield in the table.

Romario Rösch scored after 14 minutes, Maurice Krattenmacher extended the lead (39th), and in the final phase Felix Higl converted a penalty kick (84th). However, the Ulm team also had to cope with the injury to regular goalkeeper Christian Ortag. The goalkeeper landed badly after a cross about an hour later and had to be replaced after lengthy treatment.

Eintracht, who had to play outnumbered after Sven Köhler was sent off with yellow-red (50th), still have four points on their account. Levente Szabo’s goal (76′) to make it 1-2 only briefly caused excitement in front of 13,607 spectators.

The Ulm team had also taken the lead in each of the three previous home games. Unlike before, this time they managed to keep their lead over time. The guests didn’t have enough ideas for long stretches – even after the break.
