Dthree days after the cup at third division 1860 Munich, the successful streak of FC Schalke 04 also came to an end in the 2nd Bundesliga. After four consecutive wins without conceding a goal, the Bundesliga relegated player at 1. FC Heidenheim conceded a goal from Oliver Hüsing (89th) shortly before the end and lost 1-0 (0-0) at the start of the 12th matchday in a weak game.
In front of 10,000 spectators, Schalke missed the jump to second place and remain third in the table. Heidenheim, on the other hand, ended a negative series with three defeats in a row and initially moved up to eighth place in the table.
At Hoffenheim, captain and midfielder Danny Latza celebrated his starting line-up comeback after a month-long injury break. Both teams showed more fighting than playing class in heavy fog. The guests were lucky when Heidenheim’s Tobias Mohr put a long-range shot on the lower edge of the crossbar (17th minute). On the other hand, Schalke’s Victor Palsson missed the lead for the guests with two headers (22nd, 27th).
Intensity after the break
The game remained intense after the break, but there were still no ideas ahead. Schalke striker Simon Terodde headed just past from close range (74th). Then it was Hüsing who, in the final phase, scored the decision in favor of the FCH with a header.
1. FC Nürnberg has suffered its first defeat of the season in the 2nd Bundesliga. The Franks lost the chase duel at Darmstadt 98 with 0: 2 (0: 1) three days after the cup against league rivals Hamburger SV and thus remain fourth for the time being.
Luca Pfeiffer (11th) brought the lilies into the lead, Christopher Schindler (58th) also made an own goal. Darmstadt has been undefeated for four games and moved up to one point on Nürnberg.
Darmstadt got off to a powerful start in front of 13,000 spectators. Phillip Tietz (2nd) just missed the lead. Pfeiffer then took care of this with his ninth goal of the season. He missed his tenth goal with a header on the post (38th).
The best chance to equalize came four minutes later for the game-defining Nürnbergers. Goalkeeper Marcel Schschuhe ricocheted off a shot from Enrico Valentini, but parried the follow-up shots from Manuel Schäffler and Nikola Dovedan. Nürnberg had a lot of possession even after the change, but Darmstadt increased. Schindler headed a corner kick from Tobias Kempe into his own goal. The hosts were then low and lay in wait for a counterattack.
