Prussia Münster dismantled Magdeburg: Historical 5-0 victory in the relegation battle!

Münster, Deutschland - On May 2, 2025, Prussia Münster celebrated a remarkable 5-0 victory over 1. FC Magdeburg in a decisive game in the 2nd Bundesliga. This was the first game after the separation from Coach Sascha Hildmann. The victory was not only an important step towards relegation, but also represented the highest victory in the club's history in the second division area, a record that Münster had last set up in 1990/91 when they also won 5-0 against 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 href = "https://rp-online.de/sport/fussball/2-bundesliga/2-bundesliga-kompakt-muenster-magg-ausetze_aid-126928389"> rp-online.de reported.

The scorers of today's game were Jorrit Hendrix (12th minute), Marc Lorenz (15th and 43rd minute, penalty), Joshua Mees (52nd minute) and Daniel Kyerewaa (54th minute). Lorenz in particular was praised for his performance and explained that luck had returned, while the Münster victory temporarily left a direct relegation zone. The pressure on the Magdeburg team grew, which in this game lost a promotion zone and missed more than just one opportunity to put pressure on their competitors, such as Eurosport.de supplemented.

The overview of the game

In front of 26,800 spectators in Münster, the home team started strongly. After a precise pass from Lorenz, Hendrix scored with a header. Only a short time later Lorenz expanded the lead, which particularly revealed uncertainty in the ranks of the Magdeburgers. These only had a noteworthy chance of Livan Burcu (30th minute), but could not convert the offensive actions into goals.

In the second section of the game, another goal followed by Mees, which benefited from a loss of ball of Magdeburg, followed by Kyerewaa, which expanded the result to 5: 0. This dominance of the Münsterans also shows the difficulties in which Magdeburg is currently located. With this result, they slipped off the relegation place and now urgently need points to stay in the promotion race.

The table of the 2nd Bundesliga

With the current result, the Münsteraners are now in 16th place and fight for whereabouts in the league. The SC Paderborn, who won his game against FC Schalke 04 2-0, temporarily took over the relegation place three. Paderborn's goal scorers were Raphael Obermair (40th minute) and Marvin Mehlem (47th minute). Schalke, on the other hand, remains in 13th place with his 38 points and is expected to have nothing to do with the descent.

The outstanding encounter between SSV Ulm and Hannover 96 could also be crucial for Münster, since the direct comparison on the last match day will be characterized by high tension. Jahn Regensburg is under great pressure and has little hope because they are nine points behind Münster and have a much worse goal difference.
