Nuremberg women's football: With a dream goal for the first win of the season!
What a football festival in Jena! 1. FC Nürnberg celebrated its first win in the women's Bundesliga last weekend with a thrilling 3-2 against Carl Zeiss Jena. The victory was heralded by an impressive corner kick from player Oliwia Wos in the 26th minute, which initially put the Nuremberg team in the lead. But the game took a turn when Laura Miller contributed an unfortunate own goal to equalize for Jena shortly before the half-time whistle (45th + 2).
In the second round, the coach's team showed an unshakable fighting spirit. In the 60th minute, the ball bounced towards the club women again when Nastassja Lein, after a brilliant solo, rounded the Jena goalkeeper and made it 2-1. But the highlight of the game was still to come: Sanja Homann amazed the spectators and her teammates with a spectacular goal from 45 meters, while the Jena team was able to reduce the score to 2:3 shortly afterwards thanks to a hand penalty from Isabella Jaron.
Advancement and success factors
With this important victory, 1. FC Nürnberg has now improved its position in the relegation battle and is already five points ahead of the first relegation place. The club, which was founded on August 24, 1988, has since then repeatedly proven itself in the Bundesliga and Regionalliga. The new chapter in the club's history included promotion to the Bundesliga after 24 years, which they achieved in the 2022-23 season after finishing the season in second place in the 2nd Bundesliga. Their services are now more in demand than ever - the next big duel is already waiting against SC Freiburg on Saturday, where they want to put their form to the test.
