Full-time: Hannover 2-1 Fortuna

So it's Hannover who claim all three points here. After a quiet first half, the beginning of the second half was pure spectacle. Two goals, a sending-off and a missed penalty entertained the fans more than enough. With a man advantage, Hannover failed to secure the decisive goal. However, as Düsseldorf did not punish this inability to kill the game off, the 96ers claim a valuable home win.

Pichler too imprecise

Hannover counterattack again. Pichler breaks through on the left flank. However, his cross doesn't find Saad, who had made a run into the middle.

Too imprecise

Hannover are on the front foot again. Multiple times a striker fails to latch onto a cross in the middle. In the end, Roggow shoots well over the bar from 16 yards out.

Stoppage time

Six additional minutes have been indicated. Is there another twist in the tale here?

Would have been the decider

Yokota crosses into the penalty area towards the far post. Pichler misses by the narrowest of margins. However, the goal wouldn't have counted anyway as the striker was offside.

Anfang sees that his team wants the equaliser and brings on two fresh players for the last time.

Düsseldorf looking for a way forward

The visitors have nothing to lose now and want to find an equaliser. Can they restore parity whilst being a man down?

Double booking

Nawrocki and Roggow both try to stop a Düsseldorf counter-attack. After Nawrocki's foul, play continues with advantage, but after Roggow's foul, both players are shown yellow cards.

Third goal proving elusive

With a man advantage and the lead behind them, Hannover are on course to secure the victory. At the moment, however, they lack the cutting edge and thus the continue to lead by just one goal.

77'

More changes

Schmidt seemed temporarily overwhelmed with Hannover's attacks. Daland now gets his chance to prove himself.

How did that not go in?

Roggow crosses to Pichler. He brings the ball down perfectly and shoots from about 12 yards towards the goal. Kastenmeier makes himself big and just manages to clear the ball for a corner.

Deservedly ahead

xGoals

The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).

With a man advantage, Hannover are applying the pressure, although they are taking it a bit easier at the moment. The decisive moment is still to come.

The goalscorer departs

The striker scored doubled the 96ers' lead shortly after the restart. Now he can call it a day as Pichler comes on to replace him.

Hannover pushing

The hosts are looking to establish breathing room with their numerical advantage. Again it's Källman who shoots just wide of the goal.

66'

Could've sealed it

Källman charges down the right flank and leaves Schmidt standing. From close range, however, the striker's effort ends up in the side netting.

Tomiak too casual

The defender steps up. After a casual run-up, he places the ball wide of the left post. Kastenmeier had also dived the right way.

Penalty missed!

Taker:

Boris Tomiak

From Hero to Zero

Hannover clear the corner and quickly counterattack through Yokota. He sets up Aseko Nkili with a pass. Egouli trips the Hannover player in the penalty area, thus preventing a clear goalscoring opportunity. It's a penalty and a second yellow card for the goalscorer.

Düsseldorf again

The visitors combine through Muslija and Rasmussen into the opposition penalty area. Tomiak clears the cross for a corner.

Over the bar

Hannover want to restore their two-goal lead. However, Leopold's free-kick sails over the bar.

Instant response

After the whistle, the visitors are awarded a free-kick by the touchline. Muslija crosses it to the near post where Egouli rises highest to nod home, halving the deficit for Fortuna!

Goal probability

Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.

Distance to Goal

The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Super start to the second half!

Hannover begin perfectly again. The substitute Saad crosses from the left corner of the penalty area to the far post. There, Egouli and Kastenmeier lose sight of Källman, allowing the striker to simply tap it home to double his side's advantage.

Half-time: Hannover 1-0 Fortuna

The first half comes to an end after one minute of stoppage time. The match began promisingly with Yokota's goal. However, there were no further scoring opportunities afterwards as both teams have largely cancelled each other out in midfield.

Half-time

45'

Oberdorf drives forward

The defender has repeatedly carried the ball up from the back throughout the half. However, again he doesn't have many passing options available to him.

40'

Entering into a lull

Goalscoring opportunities remain scarce. This is partly due to the solid defensive lines but also due to the offensive play. Several promising build-ups fizzle out through misplaced passes or wrong decisions.

0:21

Tricky from Aseko Nkili!

34'

Düsseldorf come forward

Tanaka and Suso combine well in the opposition half. However, Noll has no problems holding onto Suso's shot from 17 yards.

33'

Chances at a premium

The xG values indicate that gilt-edged opportunities have been hard to come by for both sides inside the opening half an hour here.

Tempo quickening...

...for Hannover. Yokota dribbles away from his marker before sending Källmann on his way. The striker is ultimately disrupted by Egouli and wins a corner. However, it doesn't yield anything.

Never again

On 27 January 1945, the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration and extermination camp was liberated. Since 2004, football matches in Germany around 27 January have become a symbol of remembrance for all of the people who were persecuted, deported and murdered under National Socialism.

24'

Solid at the back

Both teams are trying to play quickly going forward. The approaches look good. But apart from the opener from Yokota, the defensive lines are still standing firm.

19'

Promising

Oberdorf crosses from in off the touchline. The ball reaches Muslija, who doesn't manage to get a shot away because Ghita clears at the last moment.

15'

First booking

Hannover counterattack down the left flank. Egouli stops the quick attack with a foul on Källman and is cautioned.

Foot off the gas

The Hannover players are showing a bit more restraint. With the lead behind them, that's understandable.

More of the ball

Fortuna want to find their way into the match by dominating possession. But so far it's nothing more than moving the ball around.

Early set-back

For Fortuna, this is of course a set-back. After two consecutive victories recently, they wanted to follow up here in Hannover as well.

Yokota with the early opener!

The hosts take the lead with their first chance. Yokota plays a one-two with Oudenne at the right corner of the penalty area and then dribbles past the Düsseldorf defence before finishing at the near post.

Kick-off!

More experience

On average, Hannover have fielded one of the youngest teams in the league this season, but today they begin with their mean oldest starting XI of the campaign. The average age is still quite low at 25.9 years, while Fortuna come in at 25.6.

More on that Fortuna side

Fortuna coach Anfang starts with the same 11 players from last week's victory against Bielefeld. For the first time this season, there is no change in Düsseldorf's starting XI.

More on that Hannover side

After the 3-1 defeat in Kaiserslautern, there are three changes to the starting XI for Hannover. Nawrocki, Bundu and Källman all come in, while Allgeier, Pichler and Weißhaupt have to take their places among the substitutes.

Opposite trajectories

Düsseldorf have won two matches in a row for the first time this season, while Hannover have lost two matches in a row for the first time this season.

Markus Anfang on facing Hannover

"Hannover are the team with the highest possession stats in the league. However, the question is always where their possession takes place. We therefore need to carefully consider how we approach this task. We need players who are strong in tackles and we have to see how to best put this together."

Christian Titz on facing Düsseldorf

"I expect a match where both teams will bring a high level of activity. We want to get back on track with three points."
