But the game in Regensburg ran for almost ten minutes and FCH equalized through a penalty kick by Jan-Niklas Beste (90.+3) and actually came to victory through Tim Kleindienst (90.+9). In Sandhausen there was a state of shock. After 15 minutes of injury time, it was over in Regensburg and Heidenheim cheered.

In the basement of the table, it quickly became apparent that it would go against Arminia. The East Westphalians would have had to win in order to still have a chance of direct rescue. But goals from Amara Condé (38') and Baris Atik (45', foul penalty) put Arminia 0-2 down at half-time. Nuremberg were already leading through a goal from Lukas Schleimer (20th). Braunschweig were outnumbered in Rostock from the 22nd minute after the yellow-red card against Anton Donkor. When Condé again increased Magdeburg's lead to 3-0 immediately after the break (51st), almost everything was decided in the basement, regardless of the other places. Jason Ceka followed suit for the FCM (67th). Dpa
