Lots of positives for basement dwellers Magdeburg despite 3:3

Magdeburg score for the first time after falling behind

Under Sander, Magdeburg have clearly stabilized, have stemmed the tide of goals conceded in the meantime and are also scoring regularly again. However, Magdeburg's last area of concern remains the exploitation of chances. Against Kiel, FCM turned the deficit around before the break with two impressive goals, but failed to close the proverbial bag at the back and conceded the equalizer in stoppage time - just as impressively.

"Brutally annoying. We deserved to win with the way we played," said FCM goalkeeper and captain Dominik Reimann, adding: "We conceded three goals today, that was one too many and we have to put a stop to that." The Blue & Whites were unlucky to concede two penalties, which can be categorized as unfortunate.
