Ache, starting the game at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer, displayed his prowess by scoring a left-footed goal from a very close range in the 18th minute. The corner, assisted by Marlon Ritter, found Ache who made no mistake in finding the back of the net.

However, Greuther Fürth's Robert Wagner had other plans, scoring twice in the 53rd and 90+5th minutes to secure the victory for his team.
