Darmstadt already 2-0 up at Hamburg only 8 minutes in.

HSV imploding sooner than expected.

Terrible start for them against Darmstadt, who are good side in their own right. But Hamburg are still going to get numerous chances in this match, they just have to take them. They are still very capable of getting something from this game.

Hannover also took an early lead away to Magdeburg, Beier was their scorer.

[Michael]

Gjasula sent off for Darmstadt against Hamburg on 59 minutes. Hamburg will now have half an hour with a man advantage. Can they pull two goals back in that time to level the game, or even better score 3 and win? We shall see.

[Michael]

The sub Opoku who came on for Hamburg 10 minutes ago gets sent off! He stupidly kicked the Darmstadt player who was pulling his jersey. Fair enough he was unlawfully held back, but he shouldn't have retaliated with a kick, that's just not acceptable. Well there goes Hamburg's one man advantage, it's now 10 v 10.

Just seen Magdeburg have a player called Leon Bell Bell

You don't usually see that

Well well, if it isn't Bell Bell.

Yes and there 35 minutes still to play right now, we are bound to see more goals. Paderorn are on fire!

And it already happened. 6-2. Wow. 

[Michael]

Pieringer scores for Paderborn to make it 6-2!

[Michael]

Karlsruhe are cruising to victory away to Regensburg as well, by 4 goals to nil.

And they had total opposite starts to their season.  Based on that you would have thought Regensburg are the favourites. 

0-5 now.

I love it! No Bayern, No RB, just complete chaos and randomness. 

[nudge+]

The only constant is HSV bottling it. The cornerstone of the 2. Bundesliga since 2018.

[Tommy]

On that note I just remembered that we play Braunschweig tonight, who have 0 points and a 0-9 goal difference so far. 

[Michael]

Srbeny scores for Paderborn to make it 7-2!

[Tommy]

And Kiel miss a penalty. 

[Tommy]

Nürnberg take the lead in Sandhausen in the final minute of the game.  1-2. 

[Tommy]

None of the new signings playing from the beginning again.  

 

 

[Michael]

Great last ditch tackle by Hoffmann to prevent Braunschweig from scoring there.

[Michael]

Braunschweig's Ujah with a powerful left footed shot there, which was well saved by Kastenmeier! That was perhaps the best chance of the match so far.

[Michael]

Well, it's 0-0 at half-time and Dusseldorf may have had the bulk of the possession, but it was Braunschweig who had the most dangerous chances in that first half. Braunschweig are unlucky not to be leading really. Dusseldorf keeper Kastenmeier has had an excellent match so far.
