Alemannia Aachen... The rocket is unstoppable
On Monday, I was one of 16.000 football fans that witnessed another victory of Michael's and mine favorite team Alemannia Aachen. Union Berlin was the visiting club at the Aachener stadium called "Tivoli".
Straight from kick-off Alemannia faught for the ball very hard and our goalgetter Bashirou Salou nearly managed to provide Aachen with a fast lead. But then Berlin directly started a counter attack and Aachen made a similar defensive mistakes as against Berlin before. However the difference was that the guests took the lead this time. Fortunately Aachen managed (although with severe problems to start with) to turn the game and the final score was 4:2. Later in the match Alemannia began to show more and more great football.
One thing we now all hope for is that Alemannia will play with such success in Berlin in the Cup Final. I mean i am not sure that Alemannia will definintely win the final against Werder Bremen with a performance such as Monday's (Werder has had a successful season so far - after a long period in which they were only playing a little role in the German 1. Division), but I am hoping for a good game in Berlin.
