Düsseldorf (AP) - Karlsruher SC must finally check off the last minimal chance of promotion after a last-minute defeat at Fortuna Düsseldorf.
The guests lost the second division match against Uwe Rösler's team with 2: 3 (1: 1) on Monday evening.
Thanks to a goal from Shinta Appelkamp in the fifth minute of stoppage time, Fortuna closed three game days before the end of the season with 52 points in fourth to third in the table Hamburger SV.
Previously, Dawid Kownacki had scored a penalty (35th minute) and substitute Brandon Borello (73rd).
An own goal by Kevin Danso (9th) had put KSC, which had no win for the eighth time in a row, into the lead.
Marvin Wanitzek also scored from the point to 2: 2 (80th).
However, Holstein Kiel in fifth (50) has three more games to play than Fortuna and HSV.
The storks will play the first of three Nachol games on Tuesday (6.30 p.m.) against SV Sandhausen.
