Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. SC Freiburg kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alexander Schwolow made 496 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' TSG 1899 Hoffenheim are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SC Freiburg backline.
  • 15' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 19' A change in the TSG 1899 Hoffenheim ranks — Ermin Bicakcic exits the field as Kevin Akpoguma enters on 19.
  • 24' Jerome Gondorf is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for SC Freiburg so far.
  • 29' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 34' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
  • 36' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Dominique Heintz makes no mistake. 0-1!
  • 41' With 0 assists to his name this season, Kassim Nuhu is clearly more than just a goal scorer for SC Freiburg.
  • 44' The crowd applauds Kassim Nuhu as he leaves the pitch. Andrej Kramaric steps in for TSG 1899 Hoffenheim.
  • 45' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Adam Szalai.
  • 46' Another change for TSG 1899 Hoffenheim made on 46 minute. Kevin Akpoguma leaves to be changed by Havard Nordtveit.
  • 50' What a moment for Adam Szalai! That strike on 50 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 55' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 60' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?

  • 66' The supporters are chanting for Marco Terrazzino. He replaces Lucas Holer on 66 minute.
  • 71' 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 Christian Gunter suffering a number of foals already.
  • 76' Leonardo Bittencourt, a Germany midfielder, has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 81' Florian Niederlechner makes way for Gian-Luca Waldschmidt at the 81 minute mark. A tactical switch from SC Freiburg.
