Full-time: Nuremberg 3-2 Elversberg

The match is over and Nuremberg claim a thrilling 3-2 win, thanks in part to Scobel's strong debut! The young striker wasn't discouraged by the many missed opportunities and turned the match around with his brace for Miroslav Klose's side, who were overall the better team going forward.

Surely the winner!

What a debut from Scobel! The young striker scores his second goal of the day! Nuremberg combine well on the left side and finally deliver the cross into the penalty area. There, the goalscorer gets his head to the ball once again and buries it in the right corner.

Will there be a winner?

Neither side appears to be satisfied with a draw here.

Penalty squandered!

Stange fails to convert the big chance. The striker's penalty is not bad, but Reichert makes a strong save to claw the ball out of the right corner! It's still all to play for here...

Card fest

Yilmaz receives a yellow card for the foul. Additionally, Lochoshvili and Klose complain too loudly to the referee and are booked as well. The Nuremberg manager cannot calm down and therefore receives a second booking immediately afterwards and has to leave the pitch.

Incredible! Elversberg lead 2-1

Elversberg continue to be the more clinical of the sides. From the left, just like with the first goal for the Saarlanders, Günther plays the ball low into the middle. There, Malanga has far too much space in the area and curls the ball into the right corner of the goal to restore the visitors' lead.

Back underway

Both teams have returned from the dressing room for the second half unchanged.

Kick-off!

Half-time: Nuremberg 0-1 Elversberg

So, it's the visitors who lead 1-0 at the break. The Saarlanders started the match well without having a shot of their own. After a few minutes, the hosts took control and squandered many good opportunities, particularly Scobel who has had his fair share of shots at goal. Before the break, however, Elversberg showed great efficiency to convert an opportunity clinically and claim the lead.

Another chance

Just before the half-time whistle, Scobel gets another opportunity to finish. The striker receives the ball on the right side of the penalty area and takes a shot. However, the ball is deflected over the goal.

There's not much time left for the hosts to strike back before the break as one additional minute is indicated.

Elversberg take the lead!

The Saarlanders turn the game on its head and show themselves to be very effective! Günther receives the ball on the left side of the penalty area and delivers a low cross into the middle. Zimmerschied is there and slots it home to make it 1-0!

Goalkeeper Efficiency

Goalkeeper Efficiency compares the number of saves a goalkeeper makes with his expected saves (xSaves). xSaves is calculated with the help of artificial intelligence. When a goalkeeper has a positive efficiency value, it means he has saved more shots than statistically expected.

Scobel again!

The young attacker receives the ball in the penalty area after a low cross and immediately tries a shot towards the left corner. Kristof saves again. That's already the fifth shot from the player who is making his first start for Nuremberg today.

Causing problems

Zoma keeps picking up pace down the flank and troubling the visitors' defence.

Straight at him

After a corner, there's finally another chance for Elversberg again. However, Petkov's header lands comfortably in the arms of Reichert.

22'

Another big chance!

Nuremberg really should be ahead by now! Yilmaz advances with pace down the left flank towards the penalty area and tries to finish into the far corner. Once again Kristof reacts very well and gets his hands to the ball. And again, Scobel has the opportunity for a header from the rebound, but it goes wide.

21'

Over

Nuremberg keep pushing. Justvan tries with a free-kick from the left side of the penalty area, but his curling effort goes just over the crossbar.

0:22

Woodwork!

Justvan gets a shot away from outside the penalty area. Goalkeeper Kristof would have had no chance, but the ball smashes against the crossbar. Afterwards, Scobel follows up with a diving header, which goes narrowly wide of the left post.

15'

Nuremberg more dangerous

After Elversberg got off to a good start - albeit without a shot on goal - Nuremberg have now created several chances and are posing more threat.

Next attempt

This cross also finds the head of Scobel, but this time he can't put as much power behind the header. The visitors' defence manages to clear.

Next corner

Zoma uses his pace again and wins another corner. The hosts are growing into the game now.

Great save

Becker's corner lands right on Scobel's head but Kristof manages to claw the effort out of the left corner. Lubach's follow-up shot flies over the bar.

First corner for Nuremberg

Zoma picks up the pace down the left flank and manages to win a corner.

Nuremberg struggling

Currently, the match is taking place almost entirely in the hosts' penalty area. Elversberg are repeatedly regaining possession quickly.

Early intent

Elversberg are pressing the hosts high up in their own half.

And we're off!

It's hosts Nuremberg who get the ball rolling here.

Kick-off!

15 minutes to go...

The countdown till kick-off is growing shorter.

A first start

Up to now, Scobel had only made four brief appearances as a substitute. Today, the forward player celebrates his premiere in the starting line-up.

More on that Elversberg side

The Saarlanders make a whopping five changes to their starting line-up. Among others, star forward Ebnoutalib has had to be replaced following his departure to Eintracht Frankfurt. New signing David Mokwa is thus handed an immediate start. Additionally, Malanga, Günther, Keidel and Rohr all take their places among the starting XI.

More on that Nuremberg side

Compared to the side they fielded in the win over Hannover before Christmas, the hosts have made three changes today. Markhiev, Justvan and Scobel all start. Baack is on the bench, while Grimaldi is unavailable for selection today. Diop is also no longer in the squad, with his loan having come to an end.

Starting line-up: SV Elversberg

Starting line-up: 1. FC Nürnberg

Vincent Wagner on facing Nuremberg

"It will be a close match on equal terms, a battle of attrition that we need to accept from the beginning, even if that's not so easy. It will be a tough fight where the small details will matter."

Miroslav Klose on facing Elversberg

"What Elversberg do with the ball is really good and difficult to defend against but we have prepared a good plan and if we implement it, we can expect a great football match."

Record

Der Club last won against Elversberg in May 2024, when Can Uzun sealed a 3-0 home victory. Jan Gyamerah was also among the goalscorers; he played a total of 53 second division matches for Nuremberg between 2022 and 2024 (three goals).

Bad omen

Elversberg are the only club against which Miroslav Klose has already suffered three defeats as a head coach.

Balanced

There have been six competitive matches between Nuremberg and Elversberg. Der Club won the first three, while Elversberg won the last three.

2:14

Watch: Preußen Münster 1-1 Elversberg

Elversberg clawed back a point on Schalke to reduce the gap at the top to three over the winter break, but will be disappointed they didn't hold on for a win after top scorer Younes Ebnoutalib - who has since joined Eintracht Frankfurt - gave them the lead from the spot.

2:11

Watch: Nuremberg 2-1 Hannover

Nuremberg took a narrow win over Hannover that saw them jump into the top half in eighth.
