Full-time: Elversberg 4-0 Darmstadt
Elversberg secure a well-deserved 4-0 victory against Darmstadt. Luca Schnellbacher, Fisnik Asllani (twice) and Filimon Gerezgiher scored for the home side. The visitors did better after the break following a dismal first half, but were repeatedly shocked by conceding goals during their good spells. The match had to be interrupted for 25 minutes due to an injury to Florian Le Joncour.

25 minutes of added time
Due to the lengthy treatment break, play will continue for quite a while. However, with the score at 4-0, the match is likely well and truly over.

Goal stands! 4-0!
Gerezgiher is played in with a high ball just outside the penalty area and then brilliantly finds the top right corner of the net with a powerful shot. After an apparent offside position, the goal is allowed to stand.

Still no play
The player is still on the ground, so the match remains halted.

Ambulance has arrived
Le Joncour is still being treated and is likely being prepared to be taken to hospital. It appears to be a serious arm injury.
75'
Better second half
Darmstadt needed significantly less time to win the ball in the second half. The half-time team talk was probably a bit more intense.

Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).

Waiting for the next goal
The home side have regained the upper hand after the goal. The Lilies started the second half well, but now seem somewhat discouraged.

Asllani for 3-0!
Asllani shocks Darmstadt during a good phase for them. After a mistake by Klefisch, he cleverly feints past two defenders at the edge of the penalty area and then brilliantly slots the ball into the far corner.

Counter-attack stopped
Elversberg allow themselves to be pushed back more and now seem to be lying in wait even more for counter-attacking opportunities. However, Vukotić confidently stops an advance.

Response?
Darmstadt appear a bit more aggressive in the opening minutes of the second half. The Lilies are pushing higher up the pitch and trying to build up momentum.

Huge chance!
Ball beautifully played into Damar's path by Schnellbacher on the right side of the penalty area, but he leans back on his first-time shot and thunders the ball over the crossbar. That should have been 3-0!

Too harmless
Darmstadt simply don't have solutions going forward, lacking pace and movement. However, Elversberg are being very disciplined, at times with all 11 players in their own half.

Elversberg increase the lead!
What a goal! The visitors are simply too careless at the back. After losing possession, the hosts press well, Asllani takes heart from a central position and curls the ball towards the right corner, but Riedel's head deflects it unstoppably into the opposite corner.

Hesitated too long
Corredor is found relatively free on the left side of the penalty area, but takes too long to control the ball. Earlier, the home side had been on the front foot but couldn't manage a shot on goal.

Visitors struggling
The defence still looks very disorganised. Darmstadt at least respond to Elversberg's opening goal with an attempt, as Lakenmacher fires from a tight angle on the left - side netting.
An early goal!
