FC Erzgebirge Aue gave their outgoing interim coach Jörg Emmerich a victorious farewell at the end of the first half of the 3rd soccer league. On matchday 19, the Saxons, who will have Jens Härtel on the sidelines from January 1, won 3:1 (1:1) against 1860 Munich. The goals for the hosts were scored by Kilian Jakob (7th minute) and former Lion Marcel Bär with a brace (88th and 90th) in front of 12,914 spectators at the Erzgebirgsstadion. Maximilian Wolfram had equalized in the meantime (40').
A week after the brilliant 6-4 win at SV Sandhausen, the hosts seemed to want to continue where they had left off in the Kurpfalz. A long ball from Aue goalkeeper Martin Männel landed with Omar Sijaric, who crossed directly into the penalty area, where Jakob finished. Marcel Bär should have added a minute later, but the goalscorer just missed the ball.
