Full-time: Holstein Kiel 1-3 Magdeburg

Magdeburg collect extremely important points in the battle to avoid relegation and can now consider their survival in the league as good as secured. After a balanced first half, Magdeburg pulled the plug on Holstein Kiel with three goals inside an hour. Kiel did manage a consolation goal just before the final whistle, making for a scoreline that is fair overall, yet Magdeburg's away win was deserved across the full 90 minutes.

Goal probability

Kiel squander

Symbolic of the afternoon, Kiel's shot on goal looked more like a back-pass than an attempt at goal.

75'

Nollenberger drives through

The Magdeburg man drives through on the right and cannot be stopped. His cross into the box, however, finds no takers.

72'

This does not look good

Nekic twists his right leg during a clearance and is unable to continue. The Kiel player leaves the pitch with assistance. Walter uses the forced substitution to also take Meffert off. Niehoff and Roslyng come on for the final 20 minutes or so.

Next one, please

Tohumcu steps up for the third set piece. This one directly leads to a fourth, which results in a brilliant counter-attack for Magdeburg.

51'

It remains quiet

Both teams are still feeling each other out at the start. Hugonet wins a corner for Kiel, their second of the match. Tohumcu steps up to take it, but the attempt comes to nothing.

46'

We're back under way!

Magdeburg currently sit five points above the relegation zone. From the visitors' perspective, they would very much like to keep it that way.

Kick-off!

Half-time: Holstein Kiel 0-2 Magdeburg

For the away side, these points are of enormous importance in the relegation battle. The match has so far offered a balanced, fast-paced and thoroughly entertaining first half. Neither side created many clear-cut chances early on, yet Hugonet put Magdeburg ahead in the 40th minute. In injury time, the visitors even added another goal, giving themselves a comfortable position heading into the second half.

0:20

Magdeburg strikes again!

Livewire Atik wins another corner. It is taken short and quick. Nollenberger then whips a cross into the box. Stalmach is there to meet it with a header and extends Magdeburg's lead!

Defeat in the last home match?

There is still a whole half to go. How will Kiel respond to being behind?

41'

Magdeburg lead!

Nollenberger's attempt results in a corner. Atik's ball floats into the penalty area, but Kiel initially manage to clear. The second ball is played into the box again. Stalmach should have scored, but instead plays it square. That did not look intentional though. Hugonet will not mind as the Magdeburg player slots the ball over the line for his second goal of the season.

Almost an own goal!

Nollenberger plays a ball into the box, where Nekic tries to clear it. However, the Kiel player shoots the ball against Stalmach, which bounces wide of the goal.

34'

That's more like it

Atik plays it to Musonda on the left wing, who crosses into the box. Nollenberger gets the highest jump, but heads wide.

Intense duel

Bockhoren tries a cross, but Zec throws himself in the way.

24'

That backfired

The corner-kick triggers a Kiel counter-attack. Kiel do well up to the penalty area, but at the last moment Hugonet manages to clear for another corner.

23'

Headed out for a corner

Nollenberger drives through on the right and crosses into the box. There, Nekic clears for a corner.

19'

Magdeburg try again

Whenever Zukowski gets on the ball near the opposition's penalty area, it always spells danger for the opponent. Magdeburg's target man fires a shot just wide of Weiner's goal.

0:25

Fine attempt

The set piece finds Kaprálik, who fires just wide of the right post from around 20 metres out.

15'

Lots of midfield skirmishing

Kiel have the upper hand here, but are not quite making the most of it yet. It's still level as we approach the halfway stage of the first half.

10'

Kiel more present

At the moment the match is very much dominated by Kiel. The shot off the crossbar seems to have woken up the hosts.

As announced

Gutting, Davidsen's match is already over after three minutes. He is replaced by Schwab.

Good Position

From a central position, Atik plays the ball into the box. Atik curls the ball in and it strikes the crossbar, however Hugonet was in an offside position.

Substitution

Stefan Schwab

Kasper Davidsen

This means...

...the visitors currently have a man advantage on the pitch. Can Magdeburg make something of it?

Early substitution?

Davidsen seems to be having trouble in the opening minutes and heads down the tunnel towards the dressing room.

The Storks are lurking

It becomes clear in the opening minutes: Kiel are looking to hit on the counter and are letting the Saxony-Anhalt side come forward.

The ball is rolling!

Can Magdeburg collect vital points in the relegation battle?

Kick-off!

Kiel can play without pressure

While Holstein Kiel managed to secure their survival last week, Magdeburg currently sit just two points above the relegation zone.

More on that Magdeburg team

The only change in the Magdeburg starting line-up compared to the home win against Hertha Berlin is Stalmach replacing Gnaka. Müller also returns to the squad after a two-match injury absence, but is not yet ready to start from the beginning.

More on that Kiel team

For the hosts, there are two changes, which were to be expected: Nekic and Tohumcu have served their yellow card suspensions and come into the starting line-up in place of Roslyng and Ugoh.

Tim Walter on facing Magdeburg

"We need to be better in our counter-pressing, win the ball back quickly and react immediately when we are played through. We want to be more proactive again than we have been in the last two weeks and less reactive."

Petrik Sander on facing Kiel:

"When you have achieved your goal like Kiel have and the tension drops, it always creates a kind of relief. We will still try to impose our game in Kiel as well. I think that both teams have no appetite for a big spectacle."

Familiar face

Goalkeeper Dominik Reimann played his first seven matches in Bundesliga 2 under Tim Walter at Kiel. In total, he made 15 appearances for the Storks in the second tier before moving to Magdeburg in the summer of 2021.

No win for a long time

Kiel's last three points against Magdeburg was a 2-1 away win in August 2022. Meanwhile, the Storks' last home win against Magdeburg came in September 2019.

Strong recent record against Kiel

Magdeburg have not lost any of their last five competitive matches against the Storks. The most recent encounter in Kiel was a DFB Cup match in November 2023, which ended 3-3 after 120 minutes before Magdeburg prevailed in a penalty shootout.
