Promoted 1. FC Magdeburg also gambled away a lead in a 1-2 (1-0) win over FC St. Pauli, who continued their winning streak of four wins in 2023. Jackson Irvine (74′) and Jakov Medic (88′) turned the game around after Baris Atik (39′) put Magdeburg ahead. The team of trainer Christian Titz missed it in the tight relegation battle of the second division, at least for one day to move up to three points to relegation rank 16. Regensburg remains on a relegation rank due to the late equalizer with 20 points. Magdeburg with just one more point could also fall back into the relegation zone on Sunday.
