The Max-Morlock-Stadion just delivered pure, unadulterated chaos with an unbelievable 4-4 draw between Nürnberg and Wolfsburg, but somehow, Hertha BSC still managed to snatch their seventh straight victory, keeping their perfect start to the season absolutely flawless. Talk about a wild Matchday 7 in Germany’s second tier, right? This weekend gave us everything from an insane goalfest to history-making runs, and it’s only October 2026!
Hertha BSC Is On A Roll, Just One Win From History
Hertha BSC is just *different* this season. They absolutely hammered Greuther Fürth 2-1 at the Olympiastadion, pushing their record to seven wins from seven league matches. Seven! That means they’re now just one single victory away from tying their best-ever run of eight straight. Seriously, how often do you see that kind of dominance? Fürth tried to make it tough, too. Omar Sillah thought he had the lead for the visitors, but it got called back, keeping things scoreless at the half. Then, in the 65th minute, Mads Pedersen finally broke the deadlock. Fifteen minutes later, Paul Seguin doubled the lead, and it felt like Hertha was cruising. A nervy finish saw Fürth defender Jannis Heuer pull one back in the 90th minute, but Hertha held on, preserving their perfect record. With 21 points from a possible 21, they’ve now stretched their lead at the top of the table to four points over Nürnberg. Nineteen goals scored in seven games? Yeah, they’re looking like serious promotion favorites already.
The 4-4 Max-Morlock-Stadion GOAL EXPLOSION
Forget everything else for a second, because the game between 1. FC Nürnberg and VfL Wolfsburg was an instant classic, a ridiculous 4-4 draw that reminded everyone why 2. Bundesliga is must-watch football. Wolfsburg came out firing, getting two goals from Hauke Wahl and Muhammed Damar inside the first half-hour. They looked totally in control, but Nürnberg came out of the break like a completely different team. They exploded for three goals in just eleven second-half minutes, with Scobel bagging two and Zoma completing the turnaround to put them up 3-2. You thought that was it? Nah. Wolfsburg’s Alessio Besio equalized in the first minute of stoppage time. Then, six minutes later, Giannis Masouras restored Nürnberg’s lead! But wait, there’s more! Besio wasn’t done, hitting the net again in the ninth minute of added time to snatch a point for Wolfsburg. Both these teams are promotion contenders, and that draw has gotta leave them buzzing, and probably a little exhausted.
So, what’s next? Hertha BSC looks to keep their incredible momentum going against Holstein Kiel, trying to make club history. Fürth, on the other hand, is feeling the heat and needs to find a way to snap their four-match winless streak when they host Braunschweig. Matchday 7 was absolutely wild, and it set the stage for even more drama to come. You love to see it!
