Reis pulls a goal back
Another twist as the Hamburg midfielder slots a brilliant drive from 20 metres out right into the bottom corner. Still time to hunt an equaliser...

Hamburg rattled
You can't fault the visitors for effort throughout the match. They've pushed away but been undone by some solid defending and sharp attacking from the hosts.

Ito curls the third in!
The man from Japan scores against his former club! He plays a lovely one-two with Ceka on the left edge of the box before shimmying inside and curling it straight past Heuer Fernandes.

Wonderful Magdeburg attack
The hosts may be in the lower half of the Bundesliga 2 table, but they can definitely play football. Some wonderful short passing threads together an intricate attack, but unfortunately for Magdeburg, they don't get a shot away despite working the ball into the box.
62'
Slowing down slightly
The second-half started with the same frantic pace the first had ended in. Magdeburg seem to be sitting deep now. An indication perhaps that they would be the happier side with a point.

Hamburg penalty appeal
Glatzel goes down in the box under a challenge from Elfadli. The referee has to check his VAR monitor but sees that Elfadli managed to win the ball with his sliding stop.

Almost a horrible own goal
Hamburg are almost gifted the lead as Heber hits the ball back to Reimann, with the goalkeeper positioned off his line. Reimann chases back and scrambles it away just before the backpass can cross the goal line!

Hamburg goal stands
A nervy wait for Hamburg, who could have had a third goal disallowed this half! This one stands though. It looked as if a player was offside when Glatzel passed to Kittel, but he didn't appear to be interfering with the play.

Kittel draws Hamburg level!
The visitors strike back! Glatzel does superbly to win the ball high up the field and then bring it forward before laying across to Kittel, who twists, sets up a shot and dispatches the ball inside the far post.

Hamburg push forward again
The visitors can't really afford to drop points today given the fierce battle for an automatic promotion spot they are engaged in. Jatta has a good chance after Dompe's shot is parried to his feet, but the hosts' goalkeeper, Reimann, pulls off a point-blank save to stop him!
32'
Magdeburg lead!
The hosts go in front - in quite some style! Bell Bell performs some brilliant wing play down the left, playing a neat one-two before cutting the ball back for Kwarteng to slot in from just inside the box. He tops it off with a few flips to celebrate in the sunshine!

Hamburg goal disallowed
After a quiet start, suddenly a flurry of action. Jatta has a shot that is deflected behind, and Kittel's corner is headed on to Heyer, who turns it in at the far post via the Magdeburg goalkeeper. It won't count though as the Hamburg full-back had strayed offside.

Glatzel and Gnaka tussle
In a scene that sums up the play so far, the Hamburg centre-forward swings a leg around the Magdeburg midfielder in a fierce battle for the ball in the centre of the pitch. The hosts get the free-kick.
