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.

A well-balanced game for both sides but sadly here Holstein Kiel was unlucky because they fail to convert their chances in second half which give them heartbroken defeat in this game which is now increasing their chances for relegation.

Mainz is also feeling sorry for this game as they lost two important points, and now they are winless in 3 games which could be big below for their chances to have spot into top four after staying into good touch now Mainz and Freiburg both are losing their rhythm with things can take changes, and they can lose their chances for ending into good spots. RB Leipzig and B. Mönchengladbach are trying to increase their chances with Dortmund and Frankfurt both are on winning streak which is increasing challenges for top spots near the end of season.
