Matchday report - Düsseldorf Dragons vs Grashof RC Essen

The last meeting felt like an eternity ago, so both teams were looking forward to the game all the more.

A hard fought game from the 1st minute to the 80th minute, with impressive defensive play from both sides. After just under 25 minutes, the guys from Essen were able to score the first try. The Düsseldorfers didn't let this upset them, and tried to concentrate on their game plan. Unfortunately, the "certain something" was missing here, so that the Dragons could only score one try. Essen was able to win the game again after that and gave the Dragons a lot to do.
Final score: 27-7

Again learned a lot and grew together as a team. The Dragons draw their lessons and look positively on the upcoming games.

Many thanks to the Essener for the hard game and of course to the referee!

We look forward to the next meeting in two weeks.

The next game will be on 11.03.2023 against the SG Rheinland. More info will follow.
