Clear victory at Erzgebirge Aue
SV Werder Bremen has the best chance of being promoted directly to the Bundesliga as the second club after FC Schalke 04. Coach Ole Werner’s team won 3-0 (0-0) at the relegated Erzgebirge Aue on Sunday and, with 60 points, is in second place behind leaders and promoted Schalke (62). Bremen, who are three points ahead of the chasing trio Hamburger SV and Darmstadt 98 (both 57) with the same number of points, will only need a draw in their home game against Jahn Regensburg next Sunday to be promoted directly. At the same time, Darmstadt are playing against SC Paderborn and HSV at Hansa Rostock.
Werder struggled in Aue for a long time despite their superiority in play. Only after the break did the guests make it 1-0 (49th) through Marco Friedl. Leonardo Bittencourt prepared the goal. In added time, Niclas Füllkrug (90′ + 2) and Niklas Schmidt (90′ + 6) scored the other goals.
90th + 8th

Clear home win: Holstein Kiel finishes off 1. FC Nürnberg
Holstein Kiel also ended 1. FC Nürnberg’s last theoretical chance of returning to the Bundesliga. The Franconians were deservedly beaten 0:3 (0:2) by the North Germans and are six points behind third place before the last second division matchday.
In front of 12,455 spectators in the Holstein Stadium, Steven Skrzybski (14th minute), Julian Korb (41st) and Lewis Holtby (63rd) scored the goals for KSV Holstein, which remained undefeated for the fifth time in a row and was already in the league secured last week. The FCN, on the other hand, remained without a win for the fourth time in a row.

Goal in stoppage time: Karlsruher SC gambled away victory against Dynamo Dresden
Karlsruher SC missed a win in the last home game of the season, but extended Dynamo Dresden’s winless streak to 16 games. The Badeners separated from the Saxons 2:2 (0:1). Patrick Weihrauch gave the guests the lead in the 26th minute. Captain Jerôme Gondorf (65th) and striker Philipp Hofmann (74th), who will switch to first division club VfL Bochum in the summer, turned the game in front of 18,649 spectators in Karlsruhe’s favour. In injury time, Dresden’s Michael Akoto (90+4) scored to make it 2-2. In terms of sport, there was not much at stake in the wildlife park. The KSC has long been sure of staying in the league. It was also clear in advance that Dynamo would have to be relegated to relegation.
