Dynamo Dresden achieved an eminently important victory at 1. FC Nürnberg in the relegation battle in the 2nd Bundesliga. The effective Saxons surprisingly won 2:0 (0:0) after an own goal by FCN defender Henri Koudossou (55th minute) and a counter-attacking goal by Ben Bobzien (83rd minute) and celebrated three valuable points.
The high-risk game at the Max Morlock Stadium, which was sold out with 45,000 spectators, passed off without incident one week after the riots in the stands at Dynamo's home game against Hertha BSC (0:1). The more than 8,000 Dynamo supporters in attendance celebrated their team loudly. Dresden now have 32 points, while the offensively unsuccessful "Club" remain on 37 points.
Both teams created some good attacking moves. The decisive one came in the 55th minute. Dynamo striker Vincent Vermeij brought the ball sharply in front of goal. Koudossou tried to clear it - but hit it into his own goal. Bobzien then stormed through the Nuremberg defense to make it 2-0.
