Full-time: Darmstadt 1-1 Braunschweig
López's first goal for the club looked to have secured the points for hosts Darmstadt but a spirit Braunschweig eventually found a way back into the game. They hauled themselves level, and collected a share of the spoils, through Szabó's late equaliser. The result is fair, considering Darmstadt's dominant start and Eintracht's remarkable second half performance.

The super sub strikes!
Szabó chips the ball over Schuhen after a pass into the space behind the defence, and Klefisch only manages to clear it after it has crossed the line. A thoroughly deserved equaliser.

Eintracht unchanged
Coach Scherning sticks with the same starting eleven as the 2-1 defeat at home to Karlsruhe almost two weeks ago.
Three changes for Darmstadt
For Darmstadt's debut under manager Kohfeldt, López and Marseiler replace Bader and Will, who are both out due to recently suffered cruciate ligament tears, while Hornby starts up front in place of Lakenmacher.
Braunschweig starting XI
Grill - Jaeckel, Bičakčić, Ivanov - Rittmüller, Köhler, Krauße, Di Michele Sanchez - Kaufmann - Polter, Philippe
Darmstadt starting XI
Schuhen - Riedel, Müller, Vukotić - López, Klefisch, Marseiler, Nürnberger - Corredor - Lidberg, Hornby
What Daniel Scherning said
"We have seen Darmstadt's recent matches, even though Torsten Lieberknecht was still the manager then, but the players essentially remain the same. We are fully prepared for a significantly more emotionally charged Darmstadt team to be on the pitch. The first match after a managerial change is always, as we know all too well, like a fresh start."
