Nurnberg, meanwhile, thrashed amateur outfit Oberneuland 9-1 in the opening round of the DFB Pokal with six different players getting on the scoresheet for Der Club including 17-year-old Can Uzun who netted a hat-trick.

They then picked up a 3-2 comeback win over Rostock in the second round of the competition with Felix Lohkemper coming off the bench to score twice and hand Cristian Fiel's men passage to the round of 16.
