- 0' Welcome to HDI-Arena that hosts another battle between Hannover 96 and 1. FSV Mainz 05.
- 5' Levin Oztunali has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 10' Jean-Philippe Mateta, a France , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 15' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 16' Poor challenge from Marvin Bakalorz. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 21' The 32-year-old Jean-Paul Boetius has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 26' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 26 minutes.
- 31' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Moussa Niakhate suffering a number of foals already.
- 36' Waldemar Anton is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Hannover 96 so far.
- 41' 1. FSV Mainz 05 are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 46' The Hannover 96 bench stirs into life. Nicolai Muller is withdrawn and Edgar Prib gets his opportunity.
- 51' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 54' Pirmin Schwegler picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

- 71' The 1. FSV Mainz 05 manager makes a substitution. Jean-Paul Boetius departs to be replaced by Levin Oztunali.

- 77' Oliver Sorg is replacing Linton Maina for the Hannover 96 side.
- 79' Anthony Ujah gets the nod from 1. FSV Mainz 05. He replaces Robin Quaison and will look to change the dynamic.
