Close contest! Can B2B United with Halstenberg beat DNA? | OneFootball

The third Icon League matchday is already in full swing. In the third match of the day, last season’s regular season champion, DNA Athletics, played against B2B United. The team head of B2B United, Benjamin Henrichs, brought along Marcel Halstenberg, a former teammate.

With him, an exciting match developed that remained open until the end. In the 17th minute, the score was tied at 2-2, until Tugay Akbakla, the goalkeeper for DNA, was given too much space. He took a shot from distance and blasted the ball unstoppably into the top corner.

After taking the 3-2 lead, DNA tried to manage the game, using long periods of possession to run down the clock. B2B still created chances but failed to capitalize on them. Thus, DNA was able to hold onto their lead and secure their first win of the season.

B2B, however, put up a strong fight and made it a close game.
