Overview
- Nürnberg won 2–1 at Dynamo Dresden, with Rafael Lubach scoring after 14 seconds for the season’s fastest 2. Bundesliga goal and Tim Janisch netting the winner, extending the Club’s unbeaten run to five.
- Dynamo remain without a home win and have gone nine league matches without victory, staying in the drop zone as local reporting notes growing pressure on sporting director Thomas Brendel.
- Schalke top the 2. Bundesliga with 24 points after ten games, and standout Soufiane El‑Faouzi is drawing interest reportedly including Borussia Dortmund, though his agent confirmed only unspecified suitors.
- El‑Faouzi has no release clause and is under contract until 2029, with his representative emphasizing the player feels very comfortable at Schalke, making an immediate transfer unlikely.
- FC Bayern women beat injury-hit Union Berlin 4–0 for a seventh straight league win, benefiting from an early goalkeeping error, while St. Pauli coach Alexander Blessin apologized to fans and demanded a tougher mentality from his squad.
