Kutschke's treble secures Dynamo victory
Dynamo Dresden were fully convincing at Viktoria Köln thanks to striker Stefan Kutschke's treble. The 5-1 win at the previously unbeaten Rhinelanders not only secured their lead at the top of the third division table, but was also "a treat" and redemption for captain Kutschke: "We had the second leg last season with the missed penalty." This time, the 35-year-old converted two penalties (17./45.+4). "That was the beauty," he said. And Kutschke scored another goal (86'). Niklas Hauptmann (32) and Robin Meißner (83) scored the other Dynamo goals. Only Donny Bogicevic (55) was successful for the hosts.
The visitors from Dresden began with a lot of possession. After a good quarter of an hour, Paul Will managed to get a shot on goal from a free-kick, which hit Christoph Greger on the arm. Kutschke converted the penalty into the right-hand corner. The second penalty kick was preceded by a foul on Jakob Lemmer by Greger, who had already been cautioned. The Cologne player was shown yellow and red. The goal to make it 1:3 seemed to give the hosts new courage. However, substitute Meißner decided the game against his former club before Kutschke scored again. "Kutsche took both penalties. He has to lead the way as captain, so I'm delighted that he scored," said Dynamo coach Markus Anfang on TV channel MagentaSport.
