A bit of good news from the continent:
Hertha BSC 2 - 1 FSV Mainz 05
I don't know if there is an equivalent word in English for Arbeitssieg, meaning a victory that was achieved with no glamour, very little fun and lots of work ("Arbeit", which you will certainly have guessed is feminine). We're in eighth now, 4 points away from Europe, but you know us.
Played 144, won 70, drawn 40, lost 34.
Greuther travel to Hamburg tomorrow, and we don't expect to take anything home but a sore back. We are in tenth at the moment, but we have the second-to-worst goal difference of the League. Paderborn (Pader.Born!!) dealt us most of that (0-5 and 0-6), but we are always good for a thrashing if the opposition catches a good moment.
