Würzburg (AP) - 1. FC Nürnberg and the Würzburger Kickers have missed important points in the relegation battle of the 2nd Bundesliga with a draw in a direct duel.
With the 1: 1 (0: 1) on Sunday, the "Club" could not increase its lead on the table cellar - the Kickers, however, as the bottom of the table with a success, could have believed more seriously in the rescue.
They have six games to go six points behind the relegation place - but with one game more than Osnabrück.
Erik Schuranow from Nuremberg benefited from a mistake by the hosts in the 5th minute and headed for the lead.
The only 19-year-old striker celebrated his second goal of the season.
Because the FCN then missed the second goal, the Kickers were also able to equalize with a header in the final phase through Lars Dietz (78th).
Immediately before the equalizer, a free kick might have been awarded to Nuremberg rather than Würzburg.
However, the guests, who have now been unbeaten for four games, were lucky in the first round that defender Lukas Mühl was not thrown off the pitch after a foul because of an emergency brake, but only saw the yellow card.
