FSV Mainz is almost negligent with its opportunities in the first round of the DFB Cup in Aue. In the end, this has hardly any consequences for the team - the fourth duel also goes to the Bundesliga club.
FC Erzgebirge Aue - FSV Mainz 05 0:3 (0:1)
FSV Mainz 05 also won the fourth DFB Cup duel against FC Erzgebirge Aue. In front of 8446 spectators, Dominik Kohr (41st) deservedly scored the Mainz lead for the break. Substitute Dwayne Burgzorg scored the crucial second goal after 70 minutes, before Marcus Ingvartsen made it 3-0 with a hand penalty (79th).
The nervousness of the hosts was noticeable at the beginning. Mainz forced Auer to make mistakes in the game structure with high pressing, but made far too little of the opportunities that arose. But then flattened part. Aue kept the favorite well away from his own penalty area and played well without becoming a threat himself. The FSV leadership fell surprisingly and was happy because Aue's defender Alexander Sorge unintentionally deflected the ball, which landed at Kohr - and he was able to choose the corner. In the second round, Mainz continued to mishandle their chances.
Eintracht Braunschweig - Hertha BSC 2: 2 (0: 2)
