"They get into our box three times and score three goals," said an annoyed Hugonet. "For us, 3:3 is not a good result, even though we were 3:1 down," said the Frenchman, explaining Magdeburg's decision to play for victory after the late equalizer. But they did not succeed. Instead, Justvan scored to give Nuremberg victory.
New signing Patric Pfeiffer was annoyed about the goals conceded: "Four goals conceded is never good, some were perhaps unfortunate. I'm a defender and actually always want to play to nil."
Christian Titz had to do without Mohammed El Hankouri, who was replaced by Falko Michel following his infection during the week. New signing Patric Pfeiffer immediately found himself on the substitutes' bench. Magdeburg pressed early on, forcing the visitors into their half at the start.
