Half chance
Stöger finds the head of Daschner, but he doesn't have the neck muscles to trouble Trapp. Bochum fans will have wanted to see Hofmann or Paciencia on the end of that!

Aaronson enters the fray
American youngster Paxten Aaronson is on for Götze, who has been a touch quiet and is on a booking. It's the 20-year-old's 10th Bundesliga appearance.

What a save!
So close for Bochum as Hofmann flicks on Passlack's inviting cross into the area. Asano is first to it in front of Trapp, who spreads himself brilliantly to block with an outstretched arm.
22'
Riemann again!
Bochum's No.1 comes out on top in another one-on-one, this time blocking at the feet or Larsson. The Frankfurt midfielder perhaps should have gone for a first-time finish instead.
20'
Wide!
Frankfurt don't clear the lines as a cross comes in from the right. Stöger takes on the loose ball, dragging wide from just outside the penalty area. Encouraging stuff for the home side!
15'
Tame header
Ordets meets Wittek's cross from the left, but his header lacks the power to seriously trouble Trapp. Open game so far!

Riemann with the save!
Frankfurt break with Dina Ebimbe, who gets into the box before forcing a smart save out of Riemann from a tight angle.
