FC Erzgebirge Aue are edging ever closer to relegation from the third division after their third defeat in the third game of the English week. On matchday 28, Aue coach Christoph Dabrowski's team conceded their 17th defeat in total in a 3-1 (0-2) loss to Alemannia Aachen in front of 8,300 spectators at the Erzgebirge Stadium. Ten matchdays before the end of the season, Aue are still eight points behind the drop zone.
Three days after celebrating the club's 80th birthday, the hosts had the first chance through Vincent Ocansey, but the visitors proved more effective. Goal-getter Lars Gindorf first curled the ball past Aue goalkeeper Martin Männel to make it 1-0, before the striker added a dream goal three minutes later to make it 2-0.
