Full-time: Eintracht Braunschweig 1-1 SC Preußen Münster

In an exciting match where enthusiasm pipped quality at times, Eintracht Braunschweig and SC Preußen Münster had to settle for a 1-1 draw. This result is ultimately fair, as both teams showed full commitment and played with discipline, but they also lacked creativity in their offensive play. However, the point gained doesn't significantly help either club in their fight against relegation.

Another yellow card

Ter Horst can't keep up with Bell Bell in midfield and resorts to a foul. He receives a booking for it.

Hit and hope

Both teams are lacking a bit of inspiration, and long balls forward have become the order of the day on both sides.

Five again

As at the end of the first half, there are now five minutes of additional time. Can this extra time be capitalised on?

Pushed too far ahead

Schenk catches a corner kick from Braunschweig and quickly restarts play with a long throw. However, Grodowski's first touch at the halfway line is too weak, allowing Ehlers to nip in and clear the situation.
85'

Out for a goal kick

After a fine through-ball from Conteh, Philippe breaks through on the left side of Münster's penalty area, but can't reach the ball before it crosses the goal line. Otherwise, it could have been dangerous.

Will there be more goals?

xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
This match hasn't offered many clear-cut chances, yet two goals have already been scored. Who knows what might happen in the closing stages.

Late to the challenge

Grodowski arrives late against Ehlers and sees yellow for stepping on his foot.
80'

That was close

Schenk lets a back pass bounce a bit too far from his foot. Philippe almost gets there, but Münster's keeper follows up and just beats the Braunschweig player to the ball.
76'

Cheeky Neméth

The Münster man advances down the left flank to the byline and aims a low shot at the near post. Johansson clears it with his foot for a corner.
75'

Tactical foul

After a fairly good attack by Braunschweig, Münster get the opportunity to counter. Ehlers stops the attack with a shirt pull and duly receives the first booking of the match.
69'

Double substitution for Münster

In addition to Grodowski, Korte takes the field. The 21-year-old midfielder from the club's youth academy is making his professional debut.
68'

Johansson tested

From just outside the area, Makridis tries a powerful left-footed shot towards the right corner of the goal. However, Braunschweig's goalkeeper makes a fine flying save, punching the heavily hit effort away to the left.
65'

Another substitution for Eintracht

Bičakčić didn't seem fully alert in defence during the previous situation and looked a yard shot in terms of pace. Perhaps that's why he now has to leave the pitch, replaced by Nikolaou.
63'

Disappointing final ball

Münster hit with a quick counter-attack. Neméth breaks down the left and looks to set up Bouchama, who has made a run down the middle. However, the cross lacks precision and Johansson comes out to clear ahead of the onrushing Münster player.
61'

Cross-bar!

Nearly the opening goal for the home side. After a corner from Eintracht, Münster fails to clear the ball and Ehlers hammers it from 15 metres with great force against the cross-bar. The visitors need to quickly regroup after that.
59'

Kirkeskov's crucial intervention

After a Münster corner, Braunschweig launch a counter-attack. Before Philippe's long ball can reach the sprinting Conteh, Münster's defensive player makes a fine sliding tackle to intercept. The Braunschweig player would have been through on goal otherwise.

Evenly matched game

56'

Strong tackle

Preißinger goes all in with his sliding tackle on Philippe in the middle of the park and is lucky to get a touch on the ball with his toe before taking out the Braunschweig player. The game continues with possession for Münster, even as Philippe complains.
53'

Münster looking lively

Overall, a modest start to the second half. The visitors appear to be a bit more active, without decisively reaching the final third. Most of the play is taking place in midfield.
49'

Down to earth

After a cross from Makridis, Bouchama goes down in a challenge in the penalty area. Referee Schwengers immediately decides to play on. And he's right: the Münster forward made more of the situation than it was.
46'

The match resumes

While Münster have the same eleven players on the pitch as at the end of the first half, Braunschweig have made two substitutions. This has allowed Scherning to move out wide, with Szabó now operating at centre-forward, supported by attack-minded midfielder Philippe.

Half-time: Eintracht Braunschweig 1-1 SC Preußen Münster

The two teams head to the dressing rooms with the score level at 1-1. After a good start and an early 1-0 lead for the home side, Münster responded immediately with an equaliser. Subsequently, the two opponents engaged in a fierce battle and largely cancelled each other out. Towards the end of the first 45 minutes, the quality of play, which had been quite good, dropped off a bit. Hopefully, we'll see more action in the second half.

The first half winds down

Both teams seem content with the draw at half-time. Not much happening now.

Five minutes added time

After two goals and two injury-related substitutions, there's a substantial amount of stoppage time.
45'

Johansson on hand

Ter Horst delivers a cross into the penalty area from the right. Bouchama misjudges the flight of the ball in front of Johansson, allowing Braunschweig's keeper to catch it comfortably.
43'

Into Nowhere

Münster win the ball in their own half and Preißinger wants to speed up the game. However, his long ball towards the front finds no one. This is likely because striker Mees is lying on the pitch in his own half after an unfortunate collision.
40'

Eintracht calm things down

Now the home side are letting the ball circulate and taking some of the pace out of the game. Münster are sitting deep and making the spaces tight.
37'

Out for a goal kick

Kaufmann penetrates into the Münster penalty area from the right side. There, he manages to get past Kirkeskov with considerable effort, but fails to place his shot accurately afterwards. It goes well over the crossbar.

A good basement battle

After a good half hour, it's clear: for a match between teams at the bottom of the table, the quality here is pretty high, and it's an entertaining match. The fans in attendance seem to agree - there's a great atmosphere in the stands!

Hendrix provides the quick response

Watch out for Philippe

The French striker is not only the fastest man on the pitch so far. Always available for a pass, technically strong, and now with five goals this season, he is Braunschweig's lifeline. SCP must keep a close eye on him.

Needs more work

Münster get a corner kick and play it short. Then a high ball is played in from outside the area, but it lands among the Eintracht players.

Wrong recipient

Köhler crosses from the left side into the Münster penalty area. However, he only finds the head of Kirkeskov, who ends the attack.

Münster looking sharp

Compared to their performances thus far this season, SCP are winning the ball back really quickly today: the Eagles are taking less than twelve seconds to do so.

Mees!

The ball falls to the Münster player's feet in the penalty area. His low left-footed shot is a manageable task for Johansson, who dives and smothers the ball beneath him.

Braunschweig also makes an early substitution

Like his counterpart, Scherning is also forced to make an early change. Tauer has picked up an injury and cannot continue. Krauße comes on in his place.
16'

Immediate response! Equaliser!

Münster's reaction is outstanding! Although the visitors lose the ball at the edge of the opponent's penalty area, they press hard and win it back. Hendrix shoots from 22 metres out and scores a spectacular equaliser to make it 1-1. Johansson gets a hand to it, but it's not enough.

Philippe celebrates once again

GOOOAL for Braunschweig!

Münster are still trying to find their shape after the substitution and immediately fall behind. A clearance from Schenk comes back like a boomerang. Philippe, set up by Szabo, cuts into the opposition penalty area and buries the ball into the bottom left corner for an early lead.

Johansson vs. Friðjónsson

Braunschweig's keeper attempts to clear the ball but hits Münster's striker full in the face from just a few metres away. The striker remains down, dazed. The signal from the medical staff who have come to assist is clear: substitution!
10'

Polter comes in hot

The striker slightly pushes Hendrix to the side during an aerial duel in midfield and is cautioned. The match is currently fairly balanced, with most of the action taking place around the halfway line.
7'

Preußen keeping the ball

After the home side started the match with a lot of momentum, Münster are now trying to calm proceedings down. They're doing this through ball possession, passing the ball around within their own ranks.
4'

Superb technique

Philippe picks up pace on the right flank and then delivers a spectacular cross with the outside of his boot to the penalty spot. Polter manages to get his head to it, but places the header straight into the arms of the visiting goalkeeper.
2'

First free kick

After Preißinger unfortunately stumbled into his opponent's feet on the right touchline, the Lions are awarded their first set piece. The free-kick is sent as a high cross into the penalty area, but Schenk plucks it safely out of the air.

The ball is rolling!

Eintracht Braunschweig have kicked off and are playing in yellow shirts and blue shorts. Preußen are wearing all black for their away kit today.
Kick-off!

Debut for Johansson

New signing Marko Johansson is in the Eintracht starting eleven for the first time. Previously, the 26-year-old Swede had only played as a substitute in Berlin on the last matchday (after the red card for Lennart Grill).

Münster unchanged

Preußen coach Sascha Hildmann sends out the same starting XI that began the 1-1 home draw against Elversberg on the last matchday.

Braunschweig with four changes

Eintracht manager Daniel Scherning makes four changes to his starting lineup compared to the 1-3 defeat against Hertha Berlin: Johansson, Di Michele Sanchez, Köhler and Polter come in for Grill (suspended), Bell Bell, Gomez and Krauße (all on the bench).

Preußen starting XI

Schenk - ter Horst, Koulis, Frenkert, Kirkeskov - Preißinger, Hendrix - Bouchama, Makridis - Mees, Friðjónsson

Eintracht Braunschweig starting XI:

Johansson - Jaeckel, Bičakčić, Ehlers - Kaufmann, Köhler, Tauer, Di Michele Sanchez - Szabó, Philippe - Polter

Minute of silence planned

There will be a minute of silence immediately before kick-off. This is due to the death of Walter Schmidt, a former Braunschweig player from their 1966/67 German title-winning team.

Hildmann's view on the game

"We've worked well this week and analysed the Elversberg match. We've also prepared for Braunschweig, who play a lot with long balls and second balls. They're an established team with a good background."
