2nd League: Bielefeld exacerbates Bochum crisis

Bochum (SID) VfL Bochum is sliding ever deeper into crisis in the 2nd Bundesliga. The Bochum team lost 0-1 (0-0) against Arminia Bielefeld and are 14th in the table. only one point ahead of the relegation place. The East Westphalians can look towards the top group again in eighth place. Florian Hartherz (68th) made Arminia's fifth away win this season perfect. Bochum was largely disappointing and only missed a few chances to equalize in the final phase. Coach Jens Rasiejewski's team started with enthusiasm in front of 12.417 spectators, which also included Schalke's Leon Goretzka and Max Meyer, but hardly created any chances to score. Patrick Weihrauch (15th) had the first good opportunity for Bielefeld, but he missed a header from close range. On the other hand, Bochum missed the 24-1 goal through Anthony Losilla (0th) after a corner and were unlucky that a goal from Robbie Kruse (31st) was disallowed due to an alleged offside position. Even after the break, both teams acted cautiously and rarely got in front of the opponent's goal. Kevin Stöger missed Bochum's best chance in the 60th minute. It was hardly surprising that Hartherz's goal came from a set piece. The 24-year-old converted a free kick from the edge of the penalty area. The VfL fans held back with chants in the first 19:04 minutes and protested again with posters against sports director Christian Hochstätter and supervisory board boss Hans-Peter Villis.
