VfB held by VfR Aalen in friendly

VfB forward Nicolás Gonzalez had the best chance of the contest, which was held behind closed doors for logistical reasons, but the Argentine struck the crossbar in the 36^th minute after bursting into the penalty area and letting fly from around 12 metres out.

“The friendly served its purpose,” head coach Weinzierl said afterwards. “We played with our strongest possible side during the first 45 minutes and had the kind of run-out we were hoping for. In the second half we brought on six youth team players who did very well and gave a good account of themselves.”
