Erzgebirge Aue have left the relegation zone in the 3rd Football League for the time being. The team coached by Jens Härtel won 4:3 (1:1) against Jahn Regensburg in front of 8,537 spectators. Erik Majetschak (45.+2), Julian Guttau (54.), Jonah Fabisch (86.) and Erik Weinhauer (90.+6) scored for Aue, Eric Hottmann (45.+6), Sebastian Stolze (60.) and Benedikt Bauer (68.) for the visitors. Aue are 15th with 15 points, Regensburg 16th with 14 points.
In a scrappy game, Aue mainly created some goalscoring opportunities from set pieces. However, Regensburg had the first chance: A volley from Hottmann (28') was saved by Martin Männel in the Aue goal. The game then became increasingly animated and Aue took the lead late on - but Regensburg equalized in first-half stoppage time.
After the break, there were chances and goals on both sides. Aue went ahead with a corner converted directly by Guttau, but Stolze equalized a few minutes later. Both teams now played with an open goal, but often lacked the final accuracy. Bauer's opening goal was deflected decisively.
