  • 4' Robin Gosens puts 1. FC Union Berlin on the lead.
  • 5' Brenden Aaronson was booked on 5.
  • 10' 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 Jordan Siebatcheu suffering a number of foals already.
  • 15' Sheraldo Becker needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.

  • 56' SV Darmstadt 98 seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 61' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Fabian Nurnberger made 295 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
