Heidenheim (dpa / lby) - Despite the necessary changes in the defense, SSV Jahn Regensburg wrested a goalless draw from the formally strong 1. FC Heidenheim in the 2. Bundesliga.
In an intense game, the Upper Palatinate showed a courageous fight on Tuesday evening and earned the 0-0.
With the point against Heidenheim, who had been unbeaten at home for more than a year, Jahn consolidated his place in the middle of the table.
Coach Mersad Selimbegovic's guests set a high pace early on and pushed the hosts on the defensive with high pressure, but could hardly create any scoring opportunities.
Heidenheim gradually freed himself, Denis Thomalla missed the best opportunity when he shot just past the guest goal on the left (24th).
Coach Frank Schmidt's team had recently defeated HSV, Fürth and Hannover.
After the break, the FCH was more dominant, but could hardly prevail in front of the Regensburg Gate.
Jahn had to change his defense significantly because regular players Sebastian Nachreiner and Erik Wekesser were both suspended.
Scott Kennedy and Niklas Beste were convincing for both of them.
The second half remained as poor as the first.
