Almost two for Bochum!
Paciência nearly has a second not long after his opener. It looks like all the 29-year-old has to do is prod home from close range but Matthias Ginter is there to save the hosts at the last. Incredible.

Paciência peach!
What a strike this is! The ball loops out towards Paciência on the left hand side and the Portuguese wellies a first-time, left-footed volley into the corner. Super strike and Bochum lead!

Joint message for peace
The DFL has recommended a minute's silence in the Bundesliga and Bundesliga 2 to remember all innocent victims and their relatives after the devastating events in the Middle East. With this joint effort, the DFL and DFB would like to send a common message from German football for peace. Football is a sport that brings people together, which is why we all stand up for peaceful coexistence, respect and tolerance. A fortnight ago, the terrorist attack by Hamas on the people of Israel and the State of Israel began. The DFL is shocked by this terrible attack and the events in the region.

Grifo vs Reimann: the sequel
Vincenzo Grifo is a specialist from 12 yards, failing to score just two of his 23 Bundesliga penalties. However, the most recent of those misses came against Bochum on Matchday 4 of the 2022/23 campaign (Grifo did score the winner in a 1-0 victory). Manuel Riemann kept out the effort, which is perhaps not too much of a surprise considering he has been beaten by just 12 of the 23 spot-kicks he has faced amongst the German elite.
