Sarge chests down the ball inside the 18 on the R, hits a low hard shot with the outside of the boot, skips in near post. Call for handling on the chest, review sez "no, no, no" goal stands.
I don't look at that as a mistake. It was a good shot with wonderful placement. The near post argument, for me, is overdone in most cases.

Also Keeper was still not set after save, I think, and was partially screened. very good shot. better keeper maybe gets it, but you get to beat the keeper your facing. That's a good finish by Sarge in any situation.
FDD tied up early in 2nd. Didn't catch the goal. haven't seen much of Josh on the ball since the restart. also, it's pouring now. like deluge.
Josh attempts a shot from distance that was blocked by a defender. Düsseldorf then scores at the other end after an amazing finish by Hennings.
Sarge does some decent dancing in the box but tries a tight angle shot that doesn't make it to goal. He looks pretty tidy on the ball for the most part, esp given conditions.
