Ladies of TTC 46 Weinheim secure away win
Maintaining the lead in the table
With a 6:2 win at SV DJK Kolbermoor, the ladies of TTC 46 secured the two points that could be very important at the end of the round. With seven points to their name and level on points with champions ttc berlin eastside, they are now three points ahead of TSV Langstadt with two matches to go in the league series. With a win against Bingen in the last match, they could even cope with a defeat against Berlin on March 24 and still retain one of the top places in the final table, which would mean a direct place in the semi-finals.
But everything still has to be played…
The doubles match in Kolbermoor began with one point each for the hosts and Weinheim.
The matches ended 3:1 for Bruna Takahashi/Mateja jeger against Kristin Lang/Naomi Pranjkovic and for Hana Arapovic/Swastika Ghosh against Yuan Wan/Sophia Klee.
The first two singles went to the TTC 46, albeit after a tough fight, but a preliminary decision. Yuan Wan won the next two against Kristin Lang after losing the first round, before the fourth went to Lang again. In the deciding set, Yuan kept the upper hand with 11:7.
Bruna Takahashi was also successful against Hana Arapovic in the fifth set with 11:7 after a changing course of the match.
The 3:1 lead for TTC 46 was then extended to 5:1 by the back four.
Mateja Jeger finished off Laura Tiefenbrunner quite quickly and won 3:0.
Sophia Klee, on the other hand, made it more than exciting. Swastika Ghosh narrowly won the first two sets before Sophia just managed to turn the third around. The fourth went quickly 11:1, but Ghosh did not give up and kept the match open until 9:11.
The bad memories of the first leg in Weinheim were all too present, when the visitors were still celebrating a draw at the end after a 5:0 lead and nothing had gone right for TTC 46.
In the top singles, Bruna had to concede the next two sets to her opponent Kristin Lang after winning the first, equalized again, but was quickly 1:7 behind in the final set and was unable to turn the tide.
Things went better for Yuan against Hana Arapovic. The individual sets were always close after comfortable leads in between, but in the end it was a 3:0 win, which meant the final score of 6:2.
Now the top match against the Berliners is on the program on 24 March, a special treat for the table tennis fans here in the region.
