Erzgebirge Aue have conceded their first defeat of the season and have lost the lead in the table. The third-division club lost 3:1 (1:0) to Arminia Bielefeld at home in the Erzgebirge Stadium. In front of 10,111 spectators, Marvin Stefaniak (27th minute, penalty) scored for Aue and Stefano Russo (55th), Mael Corboz (61st) and Marius Wörl (78th) for Arminia.
The first good opportunity in a very eventful first half belonged to the Violets (7th). Just five minutes later, Boris Tashchy and Mika Clausen almost made it 1-0 in quick succession. However, it only came in the 25th minute. Stefaniak converted a penalty after Maximilian Großer had brought down Kilian Jakob Großer following a cross.
