- 38' Leon Jensen is a natural midfielder and has been asked to do a very specific job for SC Paderborn 07 tonight.
- 43' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Karlsruher SC that had 275 games and scored 193 goals.
- 45' Adriano Grimaldi has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 45.
- 46' It is a substitution in Karlsruher SC team. David Herold is replaced by Philip Heise on 46 minute.
