Huge disappointment for SSV Jahn Regensburg. The former second division team lost the Bayern derby against FC Ingolstadt 0-3. The coach had some clear words to say.

SSV Jahn Regensburg has had a disastrous start to the second half of the third division season. In the Bavarian derby against FC Ingolstadt, Michael Wimmer’s team lost 3-0 to Sabrina Wittmann’s team.

A double strike from Jonas Scholz (20th minute) and Julian Kügel (23rd minute) put Ingolstadt on course. Because FCI missed several chances to seal the win in the second half, the game remained exciting until the final stages. In the 90th minute, Marcel Costly sealed the win for FCI, who moved past Regensburg with 25 points. Jahn’s lead over the relegation zone is now only three points. Regensburg coach Michael Wimmer was clear in his comments to “Magenta Sport”: “The way we played in the first half – in terms of passion, tackling, commitment – was not good enough. Maybe we thought that after our good preparation, everything would just fall into place. We scored both goals ourselves. That’s naive again, and we have to stop it as soon as possible.“ Wimmer emphasized: ”We have to be brutally honest and admit that we’re not as far along as some people on the outside might have thought. It’s all about staying in the league! We have to be clear about that.”

Ingolstadt coach Sabrina Wittmann said of her exuberant celebrations after the 3-0 win: “You always talk about falling away. We won a derby here – and relatively clearly at that. I believe that the joy can be great regardless of falling away. Even though we didn’t have more possession than our opponents, I would say that there are no two ways about it: we fully deserved to win. There’s a bit of joy in that too.“

Ingolstadt’s Julian Kügel, who scored the second goal, added on ”Magenta Sport“: ”The game meant a lot to us. It was also an important game for the fans. I’m happy that we’re taking the three points back to Ingolstadt for the club, for ourselves, and for the fans.”
