Holstein Kiel is fighting hard to stay in the Bundesliga but has always lost points in the matches they should have won. Today, they were ahead for a long time in the match but couldn't prevent Mainz's goal and the match ended 1-1.
Since it was away, it may seem like a 1 point gain for Kiel but they couldn't keep the win and lost 2 points.
Mainz was the better side in the match. 2 of the balls hit the post. Leipzig finished this week with a win and reduced the point difference with Mainz in 4th place to 1 point.
Mainz is a team that has been on a decline in the last 3 weeks. They dropped 8 points in the last 3 matches. If this continues, they may lose their chance to qualify for the Champions League.
