German-Ghanaian striker Ragnar Ache provided the perfect exclamation point to Kaiserslautern’s commanding 4-2 victory over Greuther Fürth in a pulsating 2. Bundesliga encounter at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer.
Ache started on the bench but entered the fray in the 52nd minute, replacing Marlon Ritter, who had earlier leveled the score. Daisuke Yokota’s goal just after the restart put Kaiserslautern ahead, but Branimir Hrgota’s spectacular strike drew the hosts level again at 2-2. Filip Kaloc’s 73rd-minute effort restored Kaiserslautern’s lead in an increasingly feisty affair, which saw both Philipp Müller and Jan Gyamerah sent off late.
Ache, already enjoying a prolific season with 10 goals in 15 appearances, made an immediate impact. In the dying moments, he latched onto a precise through ball from Jean Zimmer, calmly slotting home in the 90+3rd minute to cap an electric counterattack.
The win lifts Kaiserslautern closer to the promotion race, with Ache once again proving his knack for delivering when it matters most. His late heroics underscore his growing reputation as a clutch performer in Bundesliga 2.
