Magdeburg suffer 0:5 home debacle against Münster

1. FC Magdeburg experienced a debacle in the promotion race in the 2nd Bundesliga. Against relegation-threatened SC Preußen Münster, the previous third-placed team conceded a completely surprising but deserved 0:5 (0:3) home defeat. Jano ter Horst (12th), Marc Lorenz (15th, 43rd/foul penalty), Joshua Mees (52nd) and Daniel Kyerewaa (55th) scored for the visitors in front of 26,800 spectators. FCM's highest home defeat in Bundesliga 2 saw them slip from the relegation places to fourth, while Münster climbed to 16th.

Münster exploited Magdeburg's defensive shortcomings mercilessly, converting their first chances to take a 2-0 lead. Magdeburg then looked unsettled, had little grip defensively and no ideas in attack. Once Magdeburg had worked their way into the game, Lorenz increased the lead with a foul penalty. Magdeburg remained uninspired after the break - Münster went wide and punished every Magdeburg mistake.
