FC Erzgebirge Aue left the relegation places in the 3rd division for the time being with their first away win of the season. Coach Jens Härtel's charges secured a 1-0 (1-0) win at Alemannia Aachen to celebrate their second three-pointer in a row. Pascal Fallmann put the visitors ahead after 34 minutes. It remained the only goal in a match with few chances.
Aachen's Tivoli was quiet for a long time. The hosts had more possession but, like Auer, were unable to create anything forwards. The Saxons waited and then took control after 20 minutes. Tristan Zobel had two good opportunities in the 25th minute, but Aachen goalkeeper Jan Olschowsky thwarted them.
So the lead was no great surprise. Fallmann probably wanted to cross, but he hit the ball so well with the outside of his foot that it flew over Olschowsky, who was positioned too far forward, and into the goal. That in turn spurred Alemannia on, who also had a decent chance to equalize through Lukas Scepanik (41').
