With a 2:2 (1:0) draw against 1. FC Nürnberg, the promoted team made it perfect for staying in the league, for which the guests still have to worry. Jannes Horn put the hosts ahead with an own goal after 34 minutes. Former Magdeburg Felix Lohkemper (54th) headed the equalizer. Jason Ceka (67th) scored the lead again, cheered by the 26,305 spectators, before Lohkemper (81st) scored the deserved equalizer after a VAR decision. In the parallel game Rostock won 2:1 at SV Sandhausen.

Magdeburg takes control of the game in half one

After a courageous initial phase by the guests, Magdeburg increasingly took over the initiative after ten minutes and created several chances that ultimately led to the lead. Horn unhappily deflected a header extension into his own goal with a diving header, otherwise Mo El-Hankouri would have converted. After that, Magdeburg was clearly the better team.

That changed after the break. Magdeburg came out of the dressing room sleepily and gave Nuremberg several opportunities. Lohkemper used one of them with his head. After that, the “Club” failed to turn the game in its favor and conceded the deficit again with the first dangerous attack by the hosts. But the team of FCN trainer Dieter Hecking was rewarded for the good performance in the second half.
