Full-time: Hertha Berlin 2-2 Darmstadt

The final whistle sounds at the Olympic Stadium after a thrilling second half saw a sending-off and many chances. On one hand, Hertha must be frustrated to have given away their 2-0 lead. On the other hand, they defended well after the red card. For Darmstadt, this undoubtedly counts as a point gained. After the equaliser, they continued to press forward and would have deserved the victory.

Hertha threaten again

The ten men of Hertha are pushing for a win. Reese crosses from the right into the middle after a free-kick. Klemens is unmarked at the far post and attempts a volley after the ball slipped past everyone, but Schuhen saves comfortably.

Ernst to the rescue again

Nürnberger manages to dribble into the penalty area and shoots with his strong left foot. But Ernst is there to parry it away for a corner, which comes to nothing.

Defensive switch

Hertha coach Letil brings on Leistner for Winkler. The hosts clearly want to hold on to the draw here.

Darmstadt have been desperately unlucky

For the 15th time, the woodwork prevents a Darmstadt goal. No other Bundesliga 2 team has had such misfortune with the post and crossbar this season.

78'

Off the crossbar!

Hertha cannot clear a Darmstadt corner effectively enough. Nürnberger crosses to the far post, where Lidberg had made a run. The striker heads the ball against the crossbar. Eitschberger just manages to clear in front of Papela. His challenge was too reckless, which is why he receives a yellow card.

How did Hertha let the lead slip?

The hosts have seen more of the game recently, so that is an unfortunate twist, but they simply can't get a grip on Hornby.

Darmstadt draw level!

Hornby completes a brace as the visitors level. López is played through on the right wing and delivers a low cross into the middle where the Scottish striker bundles it over the line.

Almost the equaliser

Darmstadt chip a free kick into the Hertha penalty area. Maglica suddenly appears alone in front of Ernst, who just raises his arms in time to prevent a headed equaliser.

Another good moment

Hertha launch another threatening break down the left flank, and Winkler dribbles into the penalty area. Only a sliding tackle stops him getting a cross in.

Hertha hit the bar!

There are lots of errors in the game now. Darmstadt's López plays a misplaced pass, which Reese picks up and lays off to Cuisance on the right. The midfielder bursts into the penalty area from the right and hammers the ball against the crossbar from close range.

52'

Lidberg again

A cross from the left by Marseiler runs dangerously across the goalmouth and Lidberg narrowly slides past it.

0:31

That was close!

Some Hertha players seem to still be mentally in the dressing room. A backpass to Ernst is underhit, and Lidberg almost manages to get a toe to it. The home side just manage to clear the danger.

The second half starts!

Can the visitors battle back?

Coup d’envoi!

Half-time: Hertha Berlin 2-1 Darmstadt

Hertha just managed to avert an equaliser at the end of a hectic first half, while on the counter-attack, Reese was only stopped in the Darmstadt penalty area. There is all to play for in the second 45, with Darmstadt hoping to complete their comeback and go top of the table with a win.

Hertha have been happy to play on the break at home, allowing Darmstadt to have the ball, but managing to be the much better team in this match thanks to their sharp transitions.

Corner for the capital club

Hornby almost with the immediate response

Hertha a bit too careless again. A cross from the right side is intended for Hornby, who is just prevented from finishing from a central position.

Hertha double their lead!

Eitschberger, who came into the side today, intercepts a sloppy pass from Maglica, dribbles from the right into the penalty area, leaves that same Maglica for dead and finishes in ice-cold style.

Marseiler almost levels.

That's a terrible misplaced pass from Karbownik after a throw-in near his own penalty area. Marseiler intercepts the pass into the middle, but his shot from the edge of the box goes over the goal. That could have squared the score.

Crafty Reese

Another quick attack from Hertha. This time down the right side, where Seguin sends Reese on his way. But instead of crossing into the middle, he goes for goal himself. Visiting goalkeeper Schuhen is alert though.

Happy Hertha

The early lead is doing the hosts good. They are showing patience in their build-up play and combining well going forward through Cuisance and Seguin. So far, Darmstadt has no answer.

6'

How will Darmstadt respond?

That's anything but an ideal start for the visitors. Darmstadt are still pressing high, they haven't created any goal-scoring opportunities yet.

Goooooal

What a start for Hertha! Winkler delivers a cross from the left into the middle. Reese comes rushing in from the right to the edge of the penalty area and smashes the ball on the volley into the roof of the net!

Milestones at Darmstadt

Florian Kohfeldt on facing Hertha

"Hertha are still one of the biggest teams in the league. Together with Hannover, they have the best squad in terms of individual quality. Hertha are, along with ourselves, the most in-form team in the division. We're facing a side with a lot of quality in attack."

Can Lilies make it 10 unbeaten?

Darmstadt's 2-0 win over Nuremberg extended their unbeaten league run to nine games. Schalke, who sit just two points above the second-placed Lilies, are the last team to get the better of Florian Kohfeldt's charges.

Hertha due a win

Seventh-placed Hertha are on a run of four successive draws in Bundesliga 2. They are without a win in the second tier since beating Holstein Kiel away from home on 29 November.

Stefan Leitl on facing Darmstadt

"We need to believe in our strengths, make sure we have more of the ball and thus prevent Darmstadt from creating chances. If we do that, I believe we're strong enough to get the better of them."

Watch: Darmstadt 0-0 Hertha - previous meeting

There was nothing to separate the sides back on Matchday 3.

Against his former club

Marco Richter scored 11 goals in 59 Bundesliga matches for Hertha, and was relegated from the Bundesliga with the Berlin club in 2023.

Head-to-head

Florian Kohfeldt has not lost any of his five encounters as a head coach against Stefan Leitl (three wins, two draws). Incidentally, Leitl spent time at Darmstadt during his playing days, making 90 Regionalliga appearances for the Lilies between 2004 and 2007.

Mixed fortunes

Darmstadt have gone their last three matches unbeaten against Hertha in Bundesliga 2 and have lost only three of 15 second-tier encounters against the Old Lady. However, the Lilies' last away victory against Hertha in Bundesliga 2 was 40 years ago (3-2 in April 1986, with Bernhard Trares scoring a brace).
