The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Victor Duttenhöfer was the one to do the kick off. A collision led to FC Veitshöchheim getting a freekick after 53 minutes play. Eugen Ullmann hit a great ball. FC DEMA's attack was well implemented in the 56th minute, but when Matt Kleinhansl was about to shoot he didn't get a good hit on the ball and it hit the crossbar and flew over. Goal Kick. After having played for 58 minutes, Victor Duttenhöfer managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

Günther Fuchs was shown his second yellow card after 75 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent. That was the end of his participation in the match.

Mirco Kitzmann made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Matt Kleinhansl in the 79th minute of play. After 89 minutes, Victor Duttenhöfer mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the FC Veitshöchheim and the FC DEMA players grew even worse after the yellow card. Victor Duttenhöfer hit a great freekick 89 minutes into the match.

In the 93rd match minute, FC Veitshöchheim was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Gerrit Betz to maneuver through the defense.

Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
