Mannheim (AP) - Waldhof Mannheim has won in the 3rd football league over table leaders Dynamo Dresden.
Coach Patrick Glöckner's team prevailed 1-0 (0-0) in the last minute on Tuesday evening.
Rafael Garcia scored the decisive goal for Mannheim with a penalty in the sixth minute of stoppage time.
Dynamo had to do without head coach Markus Kauczinski, who has been in the university hospital since Monday because of malaise and nausea, and the long-term injuries Marco Hartmann, Chris Löwe, Patrick Weihrauch and Robin Becker.
Dynamo struggled against the well-tiered home side.
The team, supervised by co-trainers Heiko Scholz and Ferydoon Zandi, only shot once at the Mannheim goal in the first 45 minutes.
But Marvin Stefaniak's shot from almost 25 meters was as harmless as the entire attacking game in Dresden.
Even in the second round, the front runner remained without any noteworthy offensive action.
But because Mannheim didn’t bring much together in the game, it remained a goalless draw until stoppage time, before Kevin Ehlers fended off the ball in the penalty area with his hand in the 93rd minute and Garcia converted the penalty.
Ehlers was sent off with red, as was the 65th minute Dynamo captain Sebastian Mai, who was punished for assault.
