Crossbar!
90'
+ 1
Decent amount of stoppage time
The fourth official has signalled six additional minutes.
90'
Huge chance!
The introduction of Furukawa makes an immediate impact. The Japanese player crosses from the right to the six-yard box, where Hornby rises high but can't direct the ball on target. That should have gone in!
85'
Last stand
Furukawa, who has just been substituted on, dribbles past two Hannover players on the right side of the penalty area, but Noll clears his shot from a tight angle with his foot.
85'
At least another attempt
Lakenmacher is found at the far post by a cross from Rihcter but his header is too central - Noll has no problems.
84'
Encouragement for Darmstadt
On Matchday 15 in Münster, Hannover led 2-0 until stoppage time - the final score was 2-2!
84'
All-in
Kohfeldt is becoming even more offensive, Darmstadt are now playing with a back three.

Unnecessary
Ghiță fouls Richter and then kicks the ball out of play. He receives a yellow card for kicking the ball away.
77'
What a chance!
Well played by Darmstadt! They combine down the right flank, then Lopez plays a ball into the space behind the defence to free Hornby at the edge of the box. The Scot swings at thin air and misses a golden opportunity to pull one back.

Substitution

You've got to be kidding!
Thórdarson also has to come off injured - Hannover could pay a high price for a potential away win here.

No goals today?
Darmstadt have scored in their last 14 matches, last failing to find the net at the end of November in a 0-0 draw at Elversberg
68'
Increasing the risk
The Lilies continue to make an effort, but they can't find any gaps in Hannover's defence. At the back, Kohfeldt's team are now becoming more open.
66'
Unusually permeable
Darmstadt have conceded as many goals today as in their last six home matches combined.
65'
Attacking change
Kohfeldt brings on Richter for more attacking power.
63'
Substitution
60'
The mountain gets higher
How will Darmstadt react to the two-goal deficit? The hosts had actually made a fairly decent start after coming out of the dressing room.
57'
Second yellow card for a coach
Kohfeldt complains that during the build-up to the goal, the ball wasn't stationary for the free-kick. He too is cautioned by Badstübner for dissent.
Hannover increase the lead!

Goal probability 
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
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.

Another injury-related substitution
Nawrocki is initially treated on the pitch, but the Hannover centre-back can't continue. Ghiță comes on.

Substitution
50'
But it doesn't come to anything
...Maglica's attempt is blocked by the wall.
49'
Good free-kick position
A free-kick for Darmstadt 29 metres in front of the goal...
47'
Comeback qualities
Furthermore, the Lilies have collected 17 points after falling behind this season, no other team in the league has more.
47'
Can Darmstadt come back again?
For the 12th time this season, Hannover are leading at half-time, but they have only lost one match so far - the first leg against Darmstadt! The score was 2-1 to Hannover after 45 minutes, but the Lilies ended up winning 3-2

We're back under way!
Hannover have kicked off the second half.

Källman vs. Schuhen 2.0

38'
First booking
Titz is tirelessly talking to the fourth official and complaining. Badstübner issues the first yellow card of the match.

From distance
Pfeiffer shoots from range, but aims too centrally, allowing Noll to make a comfortable save
33'
Hannover still dominant
Hannover's superiority is also evident in the ball recovery time. Due to the high pressing from the visitors, they win the ball back on average three seconds faster than the Hessians.

Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).
29'
First big chance for the Lilies
Suddenly they move forward without frills. Schmidt sends Lakenmacher through, who shoots with his left foot from the left side of the penalty area but it goes just wide!
0:17
It could have been 2-0!
23'
Hannover dominant
Hannover remain the better team and keep appearing in front of the Lilies' penalty area. Neubauer's shot is initially blocked, then Schuhen catches the resulting corner for the visitors
20'
Early substitution
Pichler injured himself during his goal-scoring opportunity in the ninth minute and now leaves the pitch with an injury. He is replaced by Källman, the fourth-best goalscorer in the league.
