Minutes later, the ball reached Zizou at the edge of the
box and he laid it superbly to an oncoming teammate who
sent a low shot that missed the target by inches.
In the 66th minute of the game, Zidan managed
to double Mainz' lead in an unexpected way for the talented
Egyptian. Zizou scored from a header and ironically, it
was his first goal with his head! The goal came through
a long ball which was played into the area, Zidan made a
good follow and jumped high between the last defender and
the oncoming goalkeeper and managed to sent he ball past
him with his head to make the score 0-2.
After the 2nd goal for Mainz, Leverkusen put
the guests under pressure and the goalkeeper of Mainz made
two great saves from long range efforts from the Leverkusen
players.
In the 85th minute, Freier managed to claw
a goal back for Leverkusen. The goal came through a freekick
from the left wing and the ball was crossed high into the
box to find Freier who headed it home to make the score
1-2.
In the 90th minute, the referee blew the final
whistle and Mainz won three precious points thanks to the
excelling Egyptian, Mohamed Zidan who became the 2nd topscorer
for his team and will probably move into the top 10 scorers
of the Bundesliga if he managed to get 2-3 more goals in
the coming weeks.
More on Zidan soon...
