And Ludovic Ajorque’s teammates failed in their mission. Indeed, while they had control of the match as demonstrated by the possession to their advantage and their number of shots much higher than that of their opponent, the locals lost. In the second period, Michael Gregoritsch sealed the victory for Friborg with a beautiful half-volley from the left (0-1, 70th). A success which allows the Austrian striker’s teammates to climb to 8th place in the rankings. Mainz sinks and is 17th.
