Marco Schikora scored the first goal for Zwickau in the 36th minute, then Vinko Sapina tied it up for Verl in the 43rd minute But luckily in the 46th minute, they were able to complete the comback with a goal by Steffen Schäfer.
Zwickau is having problems scoring lately. Their top scorers, Dominic Baumann and Manfred Starke each only have 1 goal in their last five. Nico Ochojski and Cyrill Akono are the top scorers for Verl in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
