The visitors, however, made the most of their chances, with Josip Drmic grabbing his second successive brace against the capital club, after scoring twice against 1899 Hoffenheim on Matchday 18. The Swiss striker felt Nürnberg fully deserved their second win of the season.

bundesliga.com rounds up what the players had to say at full-time...

Josip Drmic: [On Ramos' disallowed goal in stoppage time] We're glad the referee made the decision he did. We all fought and worked hard for each other throughout the game and are delighted we managed to win again.

Raphael Schäfer: We can't rest on our laurels - we're playing Bayern next - things could change very quickly next week!

Hertha Berlin


Fabian Lustenberger: We had a lot of chances, but didn't make the most of them. Nürnberg only had about five or six shots, but they made the most of their opportunities. We have to make sure we do that next week.

Sebastian Langkamp: We should have been two, three or four goals to the good at half-time. We kney they were dangerous on the counter-attack, but we should have been out of sight by then. We had a great chance to go sixth today, which we didn't take. It's a big shame we've lost two in a row at the start of the year.
