- 10' What composure from Robert Andrich! The Germany international strokes it home. 2-0.
- 15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 17' Julian Ryerson was booked on 17.
- 22' Both keepers have barely been tested. 1. FC Union Berlin and Hertha BSC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
