Events
Match Events
- 0' The wait is over. Hertha BSC get us underway at Olympiastadion.
- 4' The referee shows Hamburger SV player a card on 4.
- 9' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 11' It’s a booking for Hamburger SV player. Dennis Hadzikadunic gets a card.
- 16' Davie Selke is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Hertha BSC so far.
- 21' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 23' Assisted by Adam Karabec with the perfectly-timed delivery and Davie Selke makes no mistake. 0-1!
- 28' Supporters expect more eagerness from Pascal Klemens, as he is very good at scoring at Olympiastadion with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 33' Hamburger SV is showing some good football. However, Hamburger SV are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 38' The home supporters are growing impatient. Hertha BSC must find a spark to ignite this game.
- 43' 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 Deyovaisio Zeefuik suffering a number of foals already.
- 48' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 53' Toni Leistner is a natural centre-back and has been asked to do a very specific job for Hertha BSC tonight.

- 64' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Florian Niederlechner on 64 minutes.
- 67' A change in the Hertha BSC ranks — Michal Karbownik exits the field as Fabian Reese enters on 67.
- 72' What a strike from Mickael Cuisance! The score is 1-2.
- 76' It is a substitution in Hamburger SV team. Adam Karabec is replaced by Lukasz Poreba on 76 minute.
- 80' Marten Winkler adds to his 3 season tally! Hertha BSC lead 2-2 — and this changes everything.
- 84' Emir Sahiti makes no mistake. The score reads 2-3 and Hamburger SV are in front.
- 85' A tactical swap from Hertha BSC — Kevin Sessa on, Ibrahim Maza off on 85 minutes.
- 86' A tactical swap from Hamburger SV — Sebastian Schonlau on, Emir Sahiti off on 86 minutes.
- 88' Controversy at the stadium! Lukasz Poreba argues furiously but the card stands.
- 90' It’s a booking for Hamburger SV player. Miro Muheim gets a card.
