Another horrible result for WSV! Sounds like they really had their lunch handed to them in this one.
Rough translation from kicker of 8/12/96:

Ahlen has recovered a lot! After the loss to Saarbrücken and the lucky victory in Salmrohr, finally an impressive performance against Wuppertal. WSV coach Jerat commented that his team's performance against his ex-colleague was a catastrophy, but that was not the only reason that WSV was "K.O." in Ahlen.
The hosts played rock-solid soccer, and took advantage of the Wuppertal weakness in the 1st half on the left side. In the 2nd half, it was Wuppertal's susceptibility to the counter-attack, and Ahlen played it's cards right. Therefore, it was justified that Karp's cross on the right flank led to the first goal, that Deffke hammered home. The 2:0 was a picture perfect counter-attack. Coach Sandhowe's satisfied judgement: "The team is putting itself together slowly."
