  • 18' Oliver Baumann has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 23' It looks surprising TSG 1899 Hoffenheim does not make any changes. Sargis Adamyan has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 26' The supporters are chanting for Pavel Kaderabek. He replaces Mijat Gacinovic on 26 minute.
  • 28' Goal! Munas Dabbur scores his 48 goal in 222 matches.
  • 33' It looks like no one’s ball. TSG 1899 Hoffenheim is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 38' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering TSG 1899 Hoffenheim that had 407 games and scored 529 goals.
  • 41' Goal! Martin Ellingsen scores his 7 goal in 83 matches.

  • 64' The Molde FK manager makes a substitution. Mathis Bolly departs to be replaced by Erling Knudtzon.
  • 69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
