Kiel saves point against Nuremberg - Zoma shines despite the draw!

On October 19, 2025, the encounter between Holstein Kiel and 1. FC Nürnberg was on the program as part of the 9th matchday of the 2nd Bundesliga. The game ended in an exciting 1-1 draw, which took some of the pressure off both teams, especially Kiel, who impressively avoided their fifth defeat of the season with this result.

The game began with an early attack by 1. FC Nürnberg, who took the lead in the 28th minute through Mohamed Ali Zoma. Zoma, who was the most noticeable player that day, benefited from a misunderstanding in the Kiel defense between Carl Johansson and David Zec. He sent a clear signal with his first goal of the season. Just a few minutes later, in the 42nd minute, Zoma could have made it 2-0, but his shot hit the underbar and didn't go over the line.

The first half was characterized by few notable shots from Kiel, while Lasse Rosenboom was denied by Nuremberg's keeper Jan Reichert shortly before the break (44th minute). With the deficit in their pocket, the Kiel team had to act more offensively after the break, but there was initially no breakthrough. In the 53rd minute, Adrián Kaprálik missed a great chance that could have turned the game around.

Catch-up and last-minute goal

The second half showed an excited Kiel team, which was finally rewarded in the 86th minute. After a precise cross from Alexander Bernhardsson, Carl Johansson scored the long overdue equalizer. This late change in the result caused a storm of celebration in the stadium and at the same time frustrated the Nuremberg team, who were striving for further success. In the 57th minute, Nuremberg had their first opportunity after halftime through Rafael Lubach, whose shot was blocked by Kiel's keeper Krumrey. Adriano Grimaldi could also have taken the opportunity to take the lead in the 79th minute, but Krumrey directed his header over the crossbar.

Overall, the draw was viewed as fair. While Nuremberg showed what they were capable of, especially in the first half, Kiel had every reason to be relieved with the late equalizer. The match remains in the minds of the spectators as an exciting duel with many chances on both sides.

This performance from Kiel gives hope that the team can further improve their form in the coming period. For 1. FC Nürnberg, the memory of missed opportunities remains, but their fighting performance suggests that they can continue to cause surprises this season.
