46th minute: Kohfeldt reacts straight away bringing on Zlatko Junuzovic for Florian Kainz at the break.
54th minute: Two chances in quick succession for the Green-Whites. Junuzovic has the first shot but his effort is blocked. Then Delaney has a go from 20 metres out but it flies over. Good start from the Werder players.
74th minute: GOOOALLLLL!! And what a beauty from Belfodil!!
Ishak heads in a wonderful cross from Delaney. His header fires off the crossbar but comes down overe the line. The Werder boys are back in it!
75th minute: Nearly the second! Straight away the Green-Whites attack again as Belfodil finds himself running in on Philipp Tschauner one on one but his effort strikers the Hannover keeper.
83rd minute: Good spell for Werder! Attack on attack but no end product.
90th minute: What a chance at the death! Rashica sprints down the left hand side and plays in a beautiful ball to find Langkamp free at the back post. The centre-back however is not expecting it and cannot turn his effort goalwards.
90+4 minute: Close but no cigar! The Werder boys have to accept defeat in Hannover to end their run of five games unbeaten.
Conclusion: The lead Hannover built up in the first half cannot be overturned despite the efforts of the Green-Whites. Hannover end a run of five losses on the trot with a victory over their northern rivals. Eggestein, Kruse and the rest of the Werder boys were unable to convert good chances when they came, as Werder grew into the game. The change at the break helped improve their play as Junuzovic added some much needed energy. In the final fifteen minutes Werder threw everything at the game, as even Pavlenka came up in the closing stages but it just wasn’t enough. Now Werder’s attentions must switch to RB Leipzig and the game next Sunday at 18:00 CEST.
