Osnabrück (dpa) - FC Erzgebirge Aue can orientate itself up in the table of the 2nd Bundesliga after the 1-0 (1-0) at VfL Osnabrück.
After two defeats by John-Patrick Strauss (13th minute), the Saxons climbed to seventh place with 25 points.
At Osnabrück, however, the negative run continues.
Coach Marco Grote's team suffered their fifth defeat from the last six games on Friday and are eleventh with 22 points.
In the first half of the season, Aue was the dominant team from the start.
The team of coach Dirk Schuster looked more snappy and was rewarded after 13 minutes.
A cross from Dimitrij Nazarov headed Strauss from a very short distance into the Osnabrück goal for a 1-0 lead.
The Schuster-Elf was more determined in the course of the game, but missed an earlier decision.
They were also unlucky with a free kick from Jan Hochscheidt, whose shot landed on the post (56th).
VfL coach Grote tried to bring new momentum with new staff.
Joker Luc Ihorst (89.) did not have more than a header chance.
The striker also saw the red card in stoppage time (90th + 1).
