Mainz 05 and Union Berlin drew 1-1 (1-1) in the catch-up game. Jonathan Burkardt put Mainz in the lead (45th + 8th minute), Robin Gosens immediately equalized.
In protest against the investor investment decided by the German Football League, Mainz fans threw tennis balls and bouncy balls onto the lawn. Mainz remains in 17th place in a direct relegation zone - six points behind Union, which, currently 15th, would be the last club that would definitely remain in the league.
