SSV Ulm, with FCB loanee Maurice Krattenmacher, earned a point with a goalless draw at 1. FC Magdeburg at the weekend. The 18-year-old midfielder made his tenth start of the season against the ninth-placed team in Bundesliga 2 and was brought off just after the hour mark. The German U20 international set up one shot on goal as well as having an attempt of his own, and successfully completed 100 percent of his dribbles.
Thomas Wörle's men remain in an automatic relegation place (17th) but their sixth away point of the season has taken them to within one point of the play-off spot.
Ritzy Hülsmann: Sixth clean sheet of season

For Hülsmann, who's been on loan with the Austrian second-tier side since the start of the season, it was already his sixth shutout of the campaign. The 20-year-old goalkeeper has conceded just nine goals in 11 league appearances so far for the team from Lower Austria.

The Munich native has now registered five clean sheets in 18 starts, helping Schweinfurt to the top of the table. The Lower Franconians travel to TSV Buchbach this weekend.
