Martin Männel put an end to FC Erzgebirge Aue's horror series against SC Verl. After six defeats in a row, the Saxons managed a 1-1 (0-1) draw on matchday 14 of the 3rd division. Allesio Beio (27) had put the hosts ahead. Jonas Arweiler (72) scored an own goal for Aue.
In a turbulent opening quarter of an hour, there were clear chances for both sides. The club from the Erzgebirge could thank goalkeeper and captain Männel that they did not fall behind when Berkan Taz and Oualid Mhamdi (4th) and Besio (10th) had the best opportunities. At the other end, Julian Guttau (8) volleyed a ball into the goal from distance, but Philipp Schulze in the SC goal was just as strong as his counterpart.
