Matchday 3: round-up

Schalke 1-1 Erzgebirge Aue
Goals: 1-0 Drexler (32'), 1-1 Härtel (86')

Schalke dominated the early exchanges as 18-year-old debutant Yaroslav Mikhailov shot over following great work by Marius Bülter. Victor Palsson miscued a header, before Dominick Drexler fired in a deserved opener in the 32nd minute. Chances had come and gone for Thomas Ouwejan and Simon Terodde, when Babacar Gueye threatened Aue's first meaningful opening of the contest. He couldn't find the target, though. Omar Sijaric did manage to test Ralf Fährmann, who was picking the ball out of the net four minutes from normal time. John-Patrick Strauß provided the cross, substitute Sascha Härtel the finish. Ouwejan sent a free-kick against the crossbar in added time to leave the Royal Blues with four points after three matches - one more than Aue.

Sandhausen 0-0 Karlsruhe

Karlsruhe travelled to Sandhausen as league leaders with a perfect record after two matchdays, taking on a home team that, in stark contract, were looking for their first points of the season. It was far more evenly contested than those opening rounds of the campaign would suggest, though, and there was nothing to separate the two at the interval. Kyoung Rok Choi came closest to giving the away side a first-half lead, but his low effort from the edge of the Sandhausen box was tipped to safety by a scampering Patrick Drewes. Chances were few and far between at both ends, with Anas Ouahim's late effort on goal the best Sandhausen could muster as they pushed for a winner, but Marius Gersbeck was never really troubled as the sides had to settle for a point apiece.

Nuremberg 2-0 Fortuna Düsseldorf
Goals: 1-0 Schindler (58'), 2-0 Valentini (90'+8)

With a pair of draws to show from Matchdays 1 and 2, the hosts were going in search of a first victory of the season against a Düsseldorf outfit that were looking for a second successive away win. And the visitors almost took a first-half lead as Felix Klaus' rocket from range was heading for the top corner before being superbly parried wide by a flying Christian Mathenia in the Nuremberg goal. It was Nuremberg that eventually went in front, however, thanks to Christopher Schindler's 58th-minute goal that was laid on by Johannes Geis. Try as they might, Düsseldorf couldn't find an equaliser and ultimately suffered a second successive defeat, confirmed by Enrico Valentini's late second deep into injury time. The result sees Nuremberg shoot up the table by collecting three points for the first time in 2021/22 and remaining unbeaten three weeks into the campaign.

Holstein Kiel 0-3 Jahn Regensburg
Goals: 0-1 Besuschkow (20'), 0-2 Gimber (40'), 0-3 Gimber (58')

With two wins from two going into Matchday 3, it took the visitors just 20 minutes to put their noses in front as Sarpreet Singh teed up Max Besuschkow to give Regensburg the lead. They doubled that advantage five minutes before the break as Singh's inch-perfect corner found Benedikt Gimber, whose looping header evaded Ioannis Gelios and found the far corner. An hour in, Regensburg made it 3-0, with Gimber turning home from the edge of the box - via the head of Julian Korb. Fin Bartels did have the ball in the back of the net for Kiel but his effort was ruled out for a foul in the build-up, with Regensburg wrapping up a third win on the spin to cement their place at the top of the league. By contrast, Holstein - who only missed out on Bundesliga promotion in the play-off last season - are rock bottom and yet to score this year.

Dynamo Dresden 2-0 Hannover
Goals: 1-0 Daferner (47’), 2-0 Mai (82’)

Promoted Dresden continued their strong start to the season - in fact their best ever after three games in Bundesliga 2 - and moved up to second place with a 2-0 win at home to Hannover, who remain on just one point. Both sides exchanged shots in the first half, but neither Ron-Robert Zieler nor Kevin Broll were particularly troubled. Dynamo took the lead shortly after the restart, though, when Christoph Daferner powered home a header at the back post from Michael Akoto's right-wing cross. Hannover looked to respond but were kept mostly at arm’s length by the Dresden defence. And it was the home side's centre-back and captain Sebastian Mai – only four minutes after coming off the bench - who headed in Tim Knipping's free-kick late on to secure the three points for last season's third division champions.

Werder Bremen 1-4 Paderborn
Goals: 0-1 Platte (9'), 0-2 Platte (17'), 0-3 Michel (36'), 1-3 Schmidt (52'), 1-4 Schallenberg (55')

Paderborn celebrated their first win of the Bundesliga 2 campaign with a thumping 4-1 win at relegated Bremen on Sunday. Lukas Kwasniok's side had drawn their opening two games, but after two goals in the opening 17 minutes from Felix Platte they were well on their way to a first three-point haul of the season. Sven Michel made it three before half-time after latching onto a long ball over the hosts' defence. Bremen regrouped after the break and had a glimmer of hope when Niklas Schmidt combined with Eren Dinkci before sliding home, but that hope was short-lived as Paderborn restored their three-goal lead just three minutes later. Ron Schallenberg headed home the fourth from a corner to seal the points with most of the second half still to play.
