Instead of sinking into the mediocrity of the 2nd Bundesliga, the first division relegated can now look up in the table again.
There will even be a top game in two weeks.

DHB-Pokal: BSV and handball lynx confidently continue

"That's what we needed," said Füllkrug in a Sky interview.
“We're something like a rough diamond in the second division.
Above all, we need self-confidence.
I hope that this continues now. "
In front of 25,000 spectators in the sold-out Max Morlock Stadium, Nikola Dovedan, who is only 1.71 meters tall, headed a precise cross from Taylan Duman free-standing in the 19th minute to lead Nuremberg into the goal.
It was very intense on the lawn.
For a long time Werder's shortcoming was only the exploitation of chances: Marvin Ducksch failed several times against the strong FCN goalkeeper Christian Mathenia, as did Manuel Mbom and Romano Schmid.
A free kick by Ducksch hit the post (71.).
In the second half, the Bremer put down a real assault.
Coach Markus Anfang also showed a lucky hand: He did not change winning goal scorer Bittencourt until the 63rd minute.
The ex-Nürnberger Füllkrug had already scored the important equalizer two weeks ago at 2-2 in Sandhausen.
“To turn a game like this: respect for the team.
That speaks for their morality, ”said Anfang.
“We played incredibly well forward.
We actually have to lead 2-0 in the first half.
In the second half it was only one game on one goal.
I think we are the absolutely deserved winner.
Today the knot popped out at the back.
It's a great moment for us. "
After the international break, Werder will continue with the top game against relegated FC Schalke 04 (November 20).
“We know we are having a difficult season.
We have to enjoy this win now, ”said Anfang.
