Matchday nine of the Icon League is still in full swing, but the very first game already had it all. OneFootball faced The Pack — a clash between two struggling sides. The Pack had lost their last three games, but things had gone even worse for OneFootball: seven defeats from their first eight matches.

OneFootball had brought in a world champion for this match. Kevin Großkreuz laced up his boots and supported fellow world champion Benni Höwedes, who is team head at OneFootball.

Even so, OneFootball started poorly, made simple mistakes, and found themselves 0-6 down after 12 minutes.

The turning point came with Pascal Brossmann’s “5 Shot.” The Berlin native converted four of his five attempts, making it 4-6 just before halftime.

OneFootball looked like a completely different team in the second half. They took control, created chances, and fought back to make it 6-6. That sent the game into overtime.

OneFootball have bad memories of overtime. Their last three matches had all gone to extra time — and they had lost every one of them.

But this time, things were different. Amer Dzindic set up Sebastian Divis, who scored the golden goal.

The Pack’s losing streak goes on. OneFootball, meanwhile, managed to turn things around after seven winless matches.

Despite the victory, OneFootball remain in 11th place, and their chances of still making the play-ins are still very slim.
