Full-time: Fortuna Düsseldorf 0-3 SV Darmstadt

Hornby disallowed!

Because Pfeiffer's foot was in a restricted area during the header in the penalty box, Hornby's subsequent goal does not count.

DARMSTADT DOUBLE THE LEAD!

And there's a little bit of fortune involved - A long ball from Pfeiffer slips through to the left wing and Nürnberger finds himself free on the left side of the penalty area in front of Kastenmeier. With a cool head, he slots the ball low into the right corner and makes it 2-0 for Darmstadt within two minutes!

Düsseldorf upping the pressure now

Fortuna have managed to shift the game into Darmstadt's half. They are pushing the visitors deep into their own penalty area for long stretches.
54'

Straight from the training ground!

A corner from the left is played low to the near post and then played back. Rasmussen is the recipient and narrowly misses the goal, the ball whistles over the crossbar!
52'

Hosts growing in influence

Daniel Thioune's team talk has shown its effect, Düsseldorf are now playing significantly better and have more possession to show for it.
48'

Immediate shot

Fortuna seem determined to become attack on the front foot. Celar immediately takes a shot from distance, but it doesn't pose any danger.
46'

We're back

The kick-off was slightly delayed because Kastenmeier and Oberdorf had to quickly fix their own goal net. Now everything is in accordance with the rules and the ball is rolling again. No changes from either camp at the break.
Kick-off!

Half-time: Fortuna Düsseldorf 0-0 Darmstadt

In the end, there are no goals of note. There were big chances on both sides, however. The visitors from Darmstadt were clearly superior in terms of the volume of chances. One goal was ruled out for offside after VAR intervention. So the match remains completely open - the second half is coming up!

Fortuna come to life!

Celar does everything right. Zimmermann delivers a precise cross from the right flank and the striker takes a shot with his right foot from five metres out. However, Schuhen produces an outstanding reflex save and prevents the ball from hitting the back of the net!

Will Darmstadt reward themselves?

The visitors have looked the superior team so far, but do not have a goal to show for it. They continue to work tirelessly to take the lead.

Celar denied

The striker is found breaking through to the opposition penalty area and aims for the far corner, but the Darmstadt defenders manage to get a leg in the way and block it.

Counter-attack opportunity

Muslija carries the ball forward down the right wing after winning possession, but Vukotić puts a stop to the counter-attack with a committed sliding tackle in the penalty area.

Onto the next chance

Another direct attack forward from Darmstadt. Corredor is played through in front of the penalty area, turns and shoots. His powerful shot is a bit too central, allowing Kastenmeier to save comfortably.
14'

Fortuna yet to get going

The hosts have been sloppy for the first quarter of this affair. There hasn't been any truly dangerous attacking action to note from Thioune's personnel just yet.

How did he miss that?

After a goal kick from Schuhen, Hornby breaks free, but his low shot when one-on-one with Kastenmeier is saved by the Fortuna keeper who turns it behind for a corner! That should have been the opener!

Darmstadt dangerous again

Corredor is played to with his back to goal in the penalty area and then tries to thread the ball through to Lidberg. The Swede would have preferred the ball to his feet, so the chance fizzles out.

The first attempt

Klefisch crosses from the right half-space into the penalty area and finds the head of Corredor, whose attempt from ten metres goes over the bar.

Thioune looking to go on the front foot

Fortuna's coach brings left winger Rasmussen into the fold for defender Schmidt, boosting the home side's offensive arsenal on the pitch. Whether this also means a change in formation remains to be seen.

Daniel Thioune speaks

"For us, it's important to appear on the scoreboard in our own stadium again. The lads and we as a team are now challenged to give our home crowd more than we did in the 180 minutes against Hannover and Karlsruhe."

Florian Kohfeldt on facing Fortuna

"Düsseldorf have gained momentum recently. They haven't lost in four matches - including the cup game - and have collected seven points. They are systematically very difficult to predict; they often change their system, even within matches."

37-year wait

Darmstadt to bounce back?

Düsseldorf have won six of the last eight matches against Darmstadt. The last victory for the Lilies was in October 2022, when Patric Pfeiffer headed his side to a 1-0 home win from a corner.

A rare draw

The last time both teams met was back in January, when a brace from Killian Corredor secured Darmstadt a point in Düsseldorf after coming back from 2-0 down. It was the 18th encounter between these two teams in Bundesliga 2, and yet it was the very first draw (11 victories for Fortuna, six for Darmstadt).
