Second half highlights:
50th min: Impressive Japanese-American build-up: Yuya Osako sends a long ball to Josh Sargent who knocks it back into Osako’s path. Osako fires a shot away, but keeper Michael Esser punches clear.
56th min: Dangerous header for the guests from a corner, it goes narrowly wide. If fans had been allowed in ‘Platz 11’, you would’ve heard a collective intake of breath.
66th min: Nick Woltemade almost makes it 2-0, but his low shot from 15 metres goes the wrong side of the left post.
73rd min: 2-0! Josh Sargent scores for Werder! Hannover keeper Esser tries to clear the ball but hits it straight into his own player. Sargent capitalises, picks up the loose ball and slots into an empty net from 16 metres.
77th min: Werder are passing the ball well and keeping possession in the opposition half. Sargent tries a shot in the attacking third but it’s blocked.
