Mainz 05 has been struggling for form in recent weeks, and the club is under pressure from the German Football Association (DFB) to find solutions to its problems.

In an attempt to improve their performance, the club turned to a different approach - mainstreaming. This means that the team will be played by a wider range of players, rather than relying solely on those who have been performing well.

The move was met with mixed reactions, with some fans feeling excited about the prospect of seeing more creative football, while others were concerned about the impact it could have on the team's results.

However, the move appears to have had a positive effect on the team's performance. In the last game, Mainz 05 beat Union Berlin 2-1, despite being outplayed for much of the match.

Head coach Stefan Fährmann praised the performance of his players, saying: "We showed great determination and spirit against Union Berlin. Our work rate was excellent, and we were able to create chances and take them."

Overall, the move towards mainstreaming seems to have paid off for Mainz 05, and the club can now focus on improving their form and securing a place in the Bundesliga next season.
