Nürnberg secure promotion to Bundesliga
1. FC Nürnberg are back at the highest level of German football after having spent just one year in the 2.Bundesliga. Energie Cottbus were defeated in a promotion-relegation play-off.
Nürnberg's position was pretty secure after last Thursday's 0-3 victory in the first leg off the play-off with Cottbus, who again stood no chance in the second leg.
Christian Eigler put the home side ahead on 29 minutes and Marek Mintal netted a second eight minutes later, for an aggregate result of 5-0.
As a result, Nürnberg join 2.Bundesliga champions Freiburg and second-placed Mainz in next year's Bundesliga, while Cottbus are relegated along with Karlsruhe and Arminia Bielefeld.
