Events
Match Events

- 2' What a strike from Joshua Kimmich! The score is 0-1.
- 7' It looks like no one’s ball. FC Bayern München is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.

- 13' Hannover 96 receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 13.

- 44' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
