Düsseldorf (dpa / lnw) - Front runner Rot-Weiss Essen does not want to be stopped in the West Regional Football League.

“The point yield speaks for the team and for what they have achieved.

We'll definitely lose a game one day, but that may take a while, ”said RWE coach Christian Neidhart after the 2-0 (2-0) win at Sportfreunde Lotte.

After their 19th game of the season on Saturday, Essen are still unbeaten and with 47 points clearly have their sights set on promotion to the 3rd division.

Daniel Heber (20th minute) and Cedric Harenbrock (39th) marked the goals for the Essenes in the first part of the game, who worked for the victory.

«I'm happy if we win a worse game.

It doesn't always have to look nice when the bottom line is the three points, »said Neidhart.

With another win next Saturday (2 p.m.) in the home game against FC Wegberg-Beeck, Essen wants to get in the mood for the second round of the DFB Cup game on December 23 (6.30 p.m.) against second division club Fortuna Düsseldorf.

In the league, RWE benefited from the fact that pursuers Borussia Dortmund II did not get more than 0-0 at VfB Homberg on matchday 20.

The second in the table initially lost touch with the leaders with 39 points, but is still three games behind.
