Nuremberg welcomes Braunschweig: Does the home strength decide the duel?
In the Max Morlock Stadium, the 1st FC Nürnberg met Eintracht Braunschweig today, and the game caused exciting twists. The Nurembergers took the lead 2-0 in the first half after Sebastian Andersson (23rd minute) and Can Uzun (45.+1, trading) successfully completed. These two goals led to great cheers among the hosts, who despite their own form crisis could rely on a home strength that has been going on against Braunschweig since 1979. This statistics initially seemed to indicate a comfortable encounter because the club has been unbeaten in its own stadium for four games and Braunschweig weakened in the away game how Sport1 reported.
In the course of the second half, however, the game became hotter when Rayan Philippe (57th minute) shortened for Braunschweig. After the lions scored the 1: 2, they pressed the equalization and more and more took control of the game. Despite these efforts, the guests lacked the necessary precision in the end in order to actually get the Nuremberg defensive into trouble. While the Lower Saxony acted with high intensity, the Nurembergers were able to defend the narrow leadership until the final whistle and thus secure important points in the relegation battle, such as the Sports show reported.
The surprised guests showed a combative performance after the 0: 2 goal, but had difficulty creating clear opportunities. In the final phase of the game, the Nurembergers were challenged to bring the result over time, which they succeeded. Thus, despite the crisis of the last games, the 1st FC Nürnberg was able to send an important sign of life.
