Duel between two teams in the middle of the table. Augsburg received Mainz in a late match of the 26th day of the Bundesliga. And if the FCA occupied 14th place before this meeting, after a great victory against Wolfsburg, it was only three points behind the barrage, the Arminia. FSV was 10th, one unit behind the first part of the table.
The locals took the advantage in this meeting with the opener in the first quarter of an hour by their Dutch captain Jeffrey Gouweleeuw (1-0, 11th). Augsburg thought of doubling the mark but Andre Hahn’s goal was disallowed for a handball (32nd). Mainz equalized thanks to Silvan Widmer before the hour mark (1-1, 54th) before the Swiss Ruben Vargas gave the Bavarians a definitive advantage (2-1, 56th), thirteenth and now six points ahead of the play-off.
