No goal!
The ball is in the net! Kersken challenges Noll, who can't catch the ball. The ball bounces into the Hannover goal, but Sarenren Bazee appears to have touched it with his hand! The goal doesn't count!
90'
+ 7
Huge chance!
Yasar's shot from outside the box is blocked, Pichler clears Grodowski's cross. But he continues and dribbles into the penalty area again. His shot from eight metres is well saved by Noll at the near post and cleared for a corner.

Now then?!
Another free kick from the halfway line. Kersken has come forward...

Better chances, but still no goal
The equaliser would be well deserved by now.

Wrong decision?
Mehlem is free on the left in the penalty area, 13 metres from the goal, but then crosses the ball with his left foot to the far post instead of shooting. He doesn't find a teammate in the centre.

Arminia capable of lucky punch
Arminia have already scored three equalising goals just before the final whistle this season (in Berlin, in Braunschweig and against Kiel).
90'
Still time for a lucky punch?
Bielefeld are pushing forward one more time, but so far they can't find a way through. A corner from the left is headed wide by Knoche from six metres out.

Yellow card for Aseko
Aseko receives a yellow card for a challenge in midfield. He will now be suspended for Hannover's match against Fürth next week.

Hannover managing the game well
The visitors are now trying to manage the result with long spells of possession.
77'
Tactical Foul
Chakroun pulls on Wörl's shirt in midfield to prevent a counter-attack. He picks up his first yellow card of the season.
75'
Just over!
Russo's cross from the left is headed by Uldrikis in a looping effort towards the Hannover goal. The ball dips behind Noll onto the roof of the net.
75'
Little to separate them
Both teams are giving it their all and are not holding anything back.
74'
Intense duel
72'
Leopold's shot gets stuck in the wall
Leopold takes the resulting free kick from 17 metres in a central position towards the upper left corner, but Uldrikis gets his head in the way and blocks it. Kersken probably wouldn't have been able to do anything about it, and Uldrikis is left with a throbbing head.
70'
Chance to make it 2-0
Knoche manages to clear Wishaupt's cross from the left before Pichler can get to it. The ball finds its way to Chakroun, who is brought down by Boakye at the edge of the penalty area. It's a good free-kick position for Hannover!
68'
Double substitution
Bielefeld and Kniat also bring fresh impetus to the attack, looking to find the right response to going behind.

Goooooooal for Hannover
The penalty is scored! Russo raises his arm while attempting to play the ball with his leg and then handles the ball. Bitter blow for Bielefeld! Leopold then steps up and converts into the bottom left corner. Kersken dived the wrong way.

Fifth Yellow for Handwerker
Yokota dribbles on the left side of the penalty area towards Handwerker, leaving him behind with a step-over. But Handwerker sticks out his leg and brings the Japanese player down. Yellow card and a free-kick for Hannover...
57'
End product lacking
Allgeier wins an important tackle 30 metres in front of his own goal after a long ball to Wörl, but then plays the ball straight to Corboz's feet. However, he cannot capitalise on the situation.
53'
Too long on the ball
Hannover counter-attacks through Yokota, who takes Saad along on the left flank. In the penalty area, he cuts inside past two Arminia players, but fails to get his shot on target.
51'
Early pressure
Corboz wins the ball 25 metres from the goal and passes it to Uldrikis, whose cross doesn't create any danger.
50'
Good start from the home side
It's a similar picture to the first half. Bielefeld makes a good start, while Hannover are initially pushed back into their own half.
46'
Momuluh goes close!
It takes just 14 seconds for the best chance of the match! After a long ball from Kersken, the ball bounces to Momuluh on the right side of the penalty area, who shoots from 13 metres but aims a bit too high, missing the top left corner by about a metre. Noll would have been powerless there.

We're back underway!
Bielefeld have kicked off the second half. Both teams start unchanged

Familiar story
Yokota tries a through ball with the outside of his boot towards Saad...but it's too long. There will now be three minutes of added time in the first half.
44'
The counter-pressing is working
Hannover's dominance in possession is also reflected in the ball recovery time. Hannover also got into the game better because they are now winning the ball back better and faster.

42'
More Danger
So far, the greater danger continues to come from the home side. The shot count is now 10-2 in Bielfeld's favour, with three attempts testing Noll. Meanwhile, Kersken hasn't had to make a save yet, as Hannover have not managed a shot on target.

Always an Arminia player in the way
Saad dribbles down the left into the penalty area, but then gets stopped. It's been a frequent occurrence so far.

Dangerous from set pieces
A corner from the right becomes dangerous again! Handwerker's ball is headed down by Uldrikis at the far post for Russo, who fails to get the ball on target from eight metres out. The ball pinballs to Corboz, whose attempt from a central position lacks power. Noll then gathers it.
21'
Hannover slowly finding their way into the match
Saad and Okon push forward on the left flank, but can't break through at the Bielefeld penalty area. The visitors' spells of possession is now becoming longer.

Hosts well on top
Arminia have already had five shots at goal. They are quickly winning the ball back and have not allowed Hannover a sniff at goal yet.
18'
Typical Bielefeld attack

16'
Play resumes
Bauer is back on his feet, and the game is underway once again.

7'
Momuluh a threat out wide
He crosses low from the right into the centre, but nobody has made the run. The ball goes out for a throw-in.
7'
Good start from the home side
Bielefeld have started very actively here and are dominating the opening minutes. Hannover still needs to find their rhythm.
5'
Next attempt
Uldrikis receives the ball 20 metres centrally in front of the goal, but his attempt completely slices off and goes wide to the left of the goal. No danger for Noll
3'
First danger in the Hannover penalty area
It's immediately dangerous! A long ball leads to a foot race between Momuluh and Okon at the Hannover penalty area, both battling intensely for the ball. The Arminia player gets to the ball in the box, but Noll comes out and claims it.
