Conclusion
After both teams won 4-0 on the last matchday, expectations were high today. In the end, it was a goalless draw, but it became exciting, especially towards the end. The best chance fell to Elversberg's Asllani, who failed to convert from the spot against Noll.

Hrgota again!
After a long ball into the final third, Hrgota breaks through, but he seems to run out of steam during the finish. Kristof can easily save his shot.

Fürth more active again
In the last few minutes, it seems as if Fürth have stepped up their search for the first goal. Hrgota is the main driving force in the attack.

Zorniger has made all five of his substitutions. Can Greuther Fürth still make something happen in the final phase?

Half-time at Ronhof
The Cloverleaves have had more of the play, but Elversberg are the more dangerous side in front of goal. However, there hasn't been much action in attack from either team. They'll need to step it up in the second half!

Hrgota!
Green takes a quick free kick and feeds Hrgota on the left side of the penalty area. He turns and shoots, but the ball whistles just past the right post!

Two minutes added on.

Over the bar!
The Cloverleaves are struggling to create chances in attack. Green tries his luck with a long-range effort, but it sails several metres wide of the goal and out of play.
40'
That should have been the lead!
Asllani receives a sensational through ball and dances past keeper Noll and then Asta, but fails to knock the ball into the empty net! In the end, he only hits the side netting, as the Fürth players were able to throw themselves into the line of shot.
37'
Massimo from distance!
The left-back takes aim from about 20 metres out from goal and has a go. His shot with his weaker left foot goes about a metre wide of the left post.
33'
A goal would do this match good
There has been a lack of clear goal-scoring opportunities on both sides so far, with both teams fighting for control in midfield.
29'
Strong on the break
Elversberg are only threatening on the counter, but are using those breaks to good effect. This time, Schnellbacher manages to get on the end of a long ball into the final third and immediately shoots. However, the ball flies over.
26'
No penalty
Futkeu goes down rather theatrically on the right side of the penalty area, and the referee immediately waves the protests away.
23'
Hrgota the dangerman
Much of the play in this 23 minutes has gone through the experienced playmaker. However, his final passes are yet to find a teammate, while he also fired a fierce volley wide of the goal.
19'
No-one in the middle
Hrgota whips in a free-kick across the face of goal, but nobody gambles to get on the end of it!

Zorniger's thoughts
"Elversberg play very courageously. This is already a team and a club that has taken the steps necessary to stay in the league and looking to move forward. That's admirable."
Steffen's thoughts
"Fürth had strong spells last season. Many players from the previous campaign are still there, too, and the playing style is relatively similar. However, there are also some differences, both compared to last term and from match to match. It won't be easy, but we want to continue to improve and be successful."
