Relegation candidate Kaiserslautern ends its winless streak at Kiel, of all places. HSV defeated Braunschweig and can continue to hope.
One day after FC St. Pauli’s victory, Holstein Kiel missed out on returning to the top of the 2nd Bundesliga table. After six previous games without conceding a goal, coach Marcel Rapp’s team conceded several goals in a 1:3 (1:2) draw against relegation candidate 1. FC Kaiserslautern.
In the evening game, third place Fortuna Düsseldorf could reduce the gap to Kiel to three points. Kaiserslautern ended its run of five league games without a win and temporarily climbed out of the relegation zone to 15th place.
Daniel Hanslik (13th minute), Filip Kaloc (45th + 4th) and Marlon Ritter (83rd) made the DFB Cup finalists celebrate. In between, Alexander Bernhardsson (25th) equalized.
Glatzel feeds HSV hope
With a brace, Robert Glatzel was able to give Hamburger SV its last chance in the promotion race and increase Eintracht Braunschweig’s relegation worries again. In the 4-0 (2-0) victory over the strong HSV in Braunschweig, the goalscorer laid the foundation for the clear success with his goals in the tenth and 22nd minutes.
With the win, the Hamburg team remained fourth in the table against Düsseldorf and can still hope for a promotion relegation spot with three remaining games of the season. Due to their first defeat after two games, the Braunschweig team failed to move further away from the relegation zone.
Paderborn ends negative home series
SC Paderborn defeated SV Elversberg and ended their negative home series. Coach Lukas Kwasniok’s team deservedly defeated the Saarland team 3-1 (0-0). For the SCP it was the first home win in the league since the beginning of February. The East Westphalians now have 46 points and are seventh in the table. Newly promoted Elversberg is in tenth place with 40 points.
