Nürnberg Dominates Fürth with 3-0 Victory in Derby

In a thrilling 274th Franken-Derby, 1. FC Nürnberg secures a decisive 3-0 win over SpVgg Greuther Fürth, with Julian Justvan scoring twice.

1. FC Nürnberg delivered a strong performance against SpVgg Greuther Fürth in the 274th Franken-Derby, winning decisively by 3-0. After a 4-0 victory in the first half of the season, the team, led by coach Miroslav Klose, continued to show their dominance over their local rivals on the 26th matchday of the 2. Fußball-Bundesliga.

Justvan Shines with Two Goals

The Nürnberg side, featuring double scorer Julian Justvan, impressed with their quick transitions and composure in front of goal. Fürth struggled defensively, making several critical errors. With this victory, Nürnberg climbed to 41 points, bringing them close to the relegation playoff spot, just four points away.

Nürnberg started the match with intensity. A cross from Caspar Jander was selflessly allowed to pass by Stefanos Tzimas, allowing Justvan to score in the fourth minute, putting them ahead early.

Fürth attempted to apply pressure, but Gian-Luca Itter had to clear a poorly executed headed back pass in the 34th minute to prevent a goal from Janis Antiste. However, Nürnberg quickly regained control. Justvan scored again in the 39th minute, followed by Tzimas in stoppage time at 45+3, taking advantage of a defensive lapse from Fürth. Nürnberg managed to maintain their lead confidently until the final whistle.
