in this one. Three defeats in their first five. The loss of Nburgg. The final blow for Tits. And now Lars Balaman steps in to try and hold the slide on a temporary basis before Sandro Vagnner takes charge come Monday. Hanover haven't won at home in almost half a year. An astonishing run for a club of this size. Bulham meanwhile still searching for consistency in his second year back in the second tier. Drew at home to qu last weekend felt more like a defeat. Chances missed, frustrations mounting. But away from home they've been a different beast entirely. Consistency has been the missing ingredient for them really and taking chances really has led them down so far. There's another win for Heterabin last night in Dresdston. Six wins out of six for the old lady. Nerburgg, Hidenheim, Volzborg making up the top four. It's down at the bottom where Hanova find themselves with Liam Vau continuing in goal. The back three remaining untouched from their loss at Nbe. There is no one Taibbe who is not in the squad. He's out with an ankle injury. So France Ruggo with his second start of this Bundesliga 2 campaign. The other change change sees Benuin Shman replace Benedict Bisha who drops to the bench. Shiaman who missed a penalty against Bulham last season. Laz Gindorf starting strong. Three goals in five appearances in the league so far for Hanover who are unbeaten at home against Borham in Bundesliga 2. Lua Osler has been forced to change but only in one place and that comes in the midfield. Mads Panovik was sent off last weekend against Charlie Patinho comes in for his Bham debut on loan from Deportivo Lacaruna in Spain. It is a fairly inexperienced duo in the middle of the park with Tom Meer who is only 18 years of age and a Bham Academy product. Philip Hoffman has three goals against Hanover in his career although near to five years since his last which came in his car days. and overcoming so close >> to a place in the top three last season. Final day it was when their hopes of a return to the top line slipped away. A draw here at home in front of these fans when victory was a must and he then allowed Padaborn to take advantage. Just two defeats in 2026 before this season began. Now three and five heading into today. That's why they have made the call to end the reign of Christianitz and to bring in Sandro Vagnner who didn't last very long in his time at Alsorg last season. And as he says, Hanover is such a powerful club with a great tradition, vibrant fan culture. >> This is what he's coming into. It looks so promising under Christians defeat NBE a mini run of four points from six. Hanover, they still haven't won at home. Not this season, not since March. >> Giant name in this league. Eight seasons now in Bundesliga 2. Now they need a lift to spark something to turn the tide. [cheering] It's a full house. >> Renewed optimism knowing the news yesterday that Zantro Vagna will become their new head coach. Starting on Monday, there will be an open training session for these fans to go and attend ahead of a press conference to introduce Vagna as the new man at the helm of handover. Well, Bormer here looking to twist the knit. It's been a bit stopped start again for them after another summer of personnel turnover. More experience has been brought in after young players struggled for consistency. And Hanover need a hit from somewhere. Will they find it here >> where victories have been so hard to come by? There will be a change of guard on the sidelines. That has to wait for now. The question here is whether it does bring the desired effect. Starting at the wrong end of the table, hand over Bulham chased that consistency. Both sides who are regular strugglers at home. Both sides so different on the road. A simple case of which handover and which Borham really turns up this afternoon. >> Welcome in Bundesliga 2 have never been here and won. There is always a time to change. Will it be here today? Timbo Horn the captain Stefan toen is the handover leader there is Ola some tough calls to uh make but he's only made the one due to Panovik not being available. He's got plenty out with injury at the present as well. Laz Balman taking charge of handover today. There he is in the white t-shirt. It's allowed players to spend the morning at home rather than at the team hotel and for brunch as was usually the case under Christian Teds. What a foundation they can lie here ahead of Sandro Vagna coming in. Great atmosphere inside the stadium with just short of 3,000 BM fans who have made the journey from the Roart could be the battle of the two strikers today. Hoffman one side, Shalman the other. Get it. Let's go. It is Bham to kick us all off here. Great atmosphere inside the Hindon Heiden Arena. Far from an ideal start for those in red here today. Hanover and a coaching dismissal behind them. Long international break ahead to reset with a new permanent coach in Xandro Vagna ready to walk through the door. Bulham coming here disappointed after there a game last weekend ended 1-1 with quarter away from home they've looked far more comfortable Garrett Holdman impalized from starting in eighth face lean cup. They've won all three away days. Big chance for Hanover here. If they were to win today, they will go level on points with Bulham really will climb the uh table. We're one of six teams to start to play here. Hanover on four points. Incredibly, it is that tight down there at the bottom of Bundesliga 2. Two of the games going on today. Energy Kos against Zang Pi and Amfeld against Heidenheim. towards Rasmmanson trickled out of play. See Moyes Moya who signed for last season from Nerburgg. >> Former Mson Shala at the start of his career actually comes from a massive Shala supporting family. Tomak they could try and go through the heart of Bham here again Marcel through well down at the other end this is Rasmmanson he's all on his own and he will find Leo Vanov right in the way moments of both ends Stefan Todd Landic over the top for Shalman. Shelman here doing it all of himself. Flag it does eventually go up from the assistant on the far side. Shanahan offside. There's Rasmmerson. Hounded, wasn't he there by Gita? Bulk have a rotten record here. Incidentally, they've only won on just four visits, but that's going back to 1971. They never won here in Bundesliga 2. Their last win was in 2009 when it was a Bundesliga fixture. Christian Fuks with a winning goal some four minutes from the 90 to win 3-2 in a game where Hanover find themselves 2-0 up.

Free kick actually goes against L Gorf who was the club's player of the match. that defeat against Nerburg. But what a scoring pedigree he has behind him that Harleman here and Sandro Vaga will look to get even more out of. They've made the move up actually from the third. Here is the top scorer. was away on loan last season. Almana Aken Las Gindorf 28 goals, 11 assists, Billy B. And here is Kitan in his second season playing in Germany for Oda. He's Germany born but represents Sweden at international level. Zakan links up with Gindorf. Shalman. Gindorf looking to repay the favor. Back to Shiaan who's just stuck on his heels. Holdman. >> So tricky to stop once he gets going. Holdman with the cross. Vikav holds. Good start to the game. What a difference 12 months makes. this line. Last season, Hanover were top of the standings, 12 points. And now they're down to the wrong end of what has been their worst start to a season in five years. That has seen Christianitz depart his role. a highly experienced coach who is named that has been linked with the vacant boss at Glampac. a vacancy. Shalman for Hartle, but the flag is up anyhow. Martel Hartle [cheering] might have just been the use of a hand unfortunately. Oh, yellow. Hans Rogau flying in. Suddenly is closely getting the message to Philip Hoffman here. Be a bit of a drag along the ground when he was committed to making the challenge. Zang Pi played in the secondary ranks of Bosia Dortmund as well. Fans Rogo last season was mainly a substitute role for him. [cheering] What can Bham do here a set piece which Maxipek will take responsibility for? Vite goes short. Mioshi. Plenty in there to attack. Evades everybody in a uh light shirt. Mioshi again for the team from the war pot. Big day for Chalipinho in the middle of the park for Bham. Hello from Depotivo Lacaruna was fairly open about telling him that he would be slotting into that mad pan of roll who was set off last week. Two yellow cards. It's Clber Patinho here. Started life with Arsenal. Loans in the football league in England with the likes of Swansea and the Tangerines of Blackpool. [cheering] They're making the move to Spain. Garrett Hogman. >> Hogman looking for Hoffman. He brought that down beautifully. Hoffman. They hunting down a bit of history today. Philip Hoffman. His next goal will see him level Mik Pritz's record of 87 goals in Bundesliga 2 history. some way to go to beat the record set by Simon Toado. On the 177 strikes at this level, Rasmmerson colliding with his coach. Tomak. Gindorf and Tomak again. Yoshi bringing in a long way here for Bulham. Saw the best of him really at the back end of last season. start of last season where Bulan were making a a coaching change. Da hecking had a rotten old start to the campaign. We're losing matches left, right and center. Worm. Stability been brought in by Uva Osla. That's a fair bit of turf that has been brought up here. Bit of a patch of job needed by Bastian Algay. Wow. 12 minutes in. Still nothing clear cutish yet. Steinfender has given a free kick away. Although Halavar are pleading to the referee, well, if you'd not blown your whistle, we could have carried on. Clear push from uh well a yellow card has gone to Darson's way I think for his protests just overstepping the mark and even as captain you still cannot talk to a referee like that. Here is Winkov. He's been with Hanov for so long, back to 2018, but he has been the proverbial back of goalkeeper. It's Maxite Schnetherler and Carl Mets. So the defensive partnership these days for Borham is Mets experienced name brought in from Zang Pi experience promotion and relegation with the kit kickers. Rasmmerson. Nothing wrong with that was for Roslo. I mention he's had some issues to deal with in terms of personnel. Relieved the likes of Rasmmerson and Hodman have actually trained this week. Took a few knocks. Doing off the likes of Babis Drais with a knee injury. Jean Manuel M is a big miss with an ankle injury. No. Philip Strong for Liver Olson. And it's Chokai. [screaming] Hman keeps it low. Oh, and he was very nearly in on goal from Algaya. Well, Homeman just looking to win this across and that is as fortunate as you can get. It's the foot of the post and away for a corner. >> Comes a corner and the goalkeeper has missed that. Rasmmerson try and bring it down under his spell here. Oh, and it's a good start from Vikov. He must have seen that late. Good spell for Bulham. They have been bemmoning, not taking moments. That was a clear case against Qual forward a week ago in that 1-1 draw. stats will tell you as well. Well, they needed the highest number of attempts per goal this season. Still a nil now. Here's Cly Tommy Mer 18 years young. He had his debut on match day two against Nitra Brown. They turned 19 in December. There is again the Valia born into the first team training last season. The chance by Rosla. Holdman. He has got the legs here. Algayas sticking to his job and he goes out for a corner. What a fascinating match up that's going to be. Alga and Pulled Man as we see Patinho here. Very nearly a debut goal >> right through a crowd and person looking to attack. wide spectacularly. Kushimoshi and a couple of goals away at Dama Tresston back on match day four doing it again away from home. Bulham struggles have been real. It all started on the opening weekend when they lost to Hata who are going absolutely magnificently at the top. >> Only team in Bundesliga 2 with a 100% winning record. Six wins from six. Shalman. Nice idea. And Timo Horn stops it by Pman off the line. Those real questions that have been answered by Borham set their way by Hanova Tomak Pimble are now tougher and nut they are to crowd ball conceded four goals in Bundesliga 2 this season. Well, the other problem for Osla is the fact that they've only scored four goals overall. Depan and Kimoshi, their only scorers. It's up with Tommyak. He gets it back to the Romanian again. This is going to be asking a lot here. The link up is good. Shaman here. Cleverly done. Well stopped and then that clearance off the line from Steinber so important. Timo Horn is two goals away actually from conceding 150 goals in his Bundesliga 2 career and over the top for Rasmmerson here and it's wide straight from a Timbo horn clearance from Steiner I beg you pardon may have been offside slightly. Rasmmerson here. What on earth was Vankov doing? Rasmmanson incidentally given another lease of life in Bundesliga 2 after his time at Fortuna Dusseldorf ended with relegation. Shan Kver that's a smart pass and Mioshi can't take his moment. Oh, the vision from Clay in picking out Miosi here. Superb. Needed to get that shot away quickly and just lagged the accuracy to keep it on target. >> Another warning shot towards handover. That'll be a free kick. it. Actually, the whistle blows. Plenty to ponder already inside this first 22 minutes or so for Balan to take on into Halime, but also Central Vagna watching from afar for last half a season at Outlas campaign. Sandro Vagna. Coutinho wants a corner and in fact not going to get it. to Shelman. It's Claybar cross to put it out of play and came from Romu in Denmark to get his first start against Querford last weekend. Here comes the corner. There to be attacks and it's been poked in right on the line. It will be the easiest goal. That's what Darson will score. And Borham having had their chances at one end not taking them in his hand over who open the scoring here in the game's 24th minute and it's come from a set piece for the first time. Borham has been undone by a set play and he was the quickest in reacting here wasn't he? a player who came in in January from Preston North end in England. He's off the mark in Bundesliga 2 for this season having scored three times in the second half of last campaign. has scored a couple of goals in the first round of the deer pcal back in August but off the mark in the league. [cheering] Is that the lift? It can take handover towards victory. A long way to go yet but a victory they are craving. And here they come again with Gindorf waiting for others to arrive. Bank for Laz Gindorf and Gindorf. They can't find Marshall Hartford. >> Patinho for Borham. new captain for this season. Todd Arson leading by example as Rasmusson gets it back here. And now Hodman and Nabis getting forward for Borham. Straight onto the head of Tommy. Hodman will shield it out of play. needs to get on with it. The countdown was on from the referee. Seemed a little belated. Countdown to five seconds for the to restart. Sort of well used during the World Cup this past summer where he was introduced. Continue. Here he is again. Charlie Patinho for much of his time in Spain last season was a regular substitute. 23 of 28 appearances in the Sagunda last season were as a sub for Deotivo. Here he is again Maya. This is Miguel Steiner who is part of a team in Scotland last season that very nearly became a champion with Hart and Mloian beaten on the final day by Celtic who then picked them to the title. Flag is up here. Cly who's a Surinam international. That's calmly done from Kita missed the first few games of the season. Some effects of a hamstring injury that he picked up in pre-season 10 years in the canapen the shouter academy. Get some. It's a bit slack from Hanover who like Balkam have been a team who have really struggled in front of goal this season. They were averaging just one goal for every 17 shots a goal coming into this game. Top of the standings for the most big chances missed in Bundesliga 2 this season. Their third attempt of the game today and they have been able to score the game's opening goal. Probably back by Carol Mets. Shan in taking the place of Benedict Pisha today. Vite. >> Here's Mai. Moshi breaks zone and Gindorf always so busy when on the ball. L Gindorf actually signed some four years ago from Meming a career that started with Fry Boy. It's quite the season with Alammanak and nice campaign 28 goals. His best ever return and the opportunity to come back and bring it to the first team here in Hanover has started well for him. Three goals in those first five games. Mayor Clever line from Mets. >> Hogman. scrums it from wide areas. Not quite coming off yet. It's been relatively straightforward for the likes of and for Boris Tomak. Oh, nicely done from there. Those long strides of his in the end just over running things. instead of the goal that won the game with Damo Dresson in their last away game. Shu Rosa is not that cruel and still will give youngsters the moments that they need. It's viewed that it was fairly overdone at times last season in the transfer market. more experienced names brought into the group for this season and more so than Carol Mets here. Garrett Holdman. Patinho. Rasmus. Rasmusen. Nothing quite happening for Rasmuson so far. Oh, and the play with fire. Hoffman. Patinho for Mioshi. And there was Gindorf who got back in time. Fite to win it back and Haltman will go in on the slide. Don't want to be overplaying in at the back here. Hand over. As we have a look at the goal again. Look at Toddson. He misses the original header and then as he comes back down, it just falls beautifully into his pass. Could a miss. Didn't miss. Well, as Palman said that, it's been a rather relaxed and enjoyable week after the dismissal of Christian Titers, regain some self-confidence. So the form from from his press conference this week, what he wanted to get out of this week in particular on the training pitch 10 to play this first half. one of those runs and climb takes over. What a save. What a save that is from Vankov. Oh, it looked absolutely destined for 1-1. And it was climb from nowhere. And it's such a strong left palm getting down low. There was the right place at the right time to blast it away from danger. Borham's best chance falling for Klyber and right back to clearly as far as Moshi vite sent it in with purpose again. Taken away from Rasmuson a couple of goals in Bundesliga 2 last season. Rasmusen Vitek. Steinb is there. Cleared by Alga. Straight back to Vitek. Holdman delivers. Too close to Vikov. Here's a goalkeeper who is had his fair share of critics the start of this season. He's back up to now null last season. He was playing a sub role in all 34 Bundesliga 2 games in the previous three seasons before this one. Now he gets a chance to shine as a number one. He's a giant of a goalkeeper as well. Six for five. So to get down so low and so quickly, >> incredible agility. May Coutinho Rasmmanson can't get away from his man. Hanova can't keep hold of the ball. Mayer again. This is Hard who takes over back in Germany after two years major league soccer with St. Louis. That'll be a free kick. And one thing that Hartley was talking about in the buildup to this game is how they have to cut out simple turnovers. Another example, Kitan dwelling on the ball and then just sticking out a leg and tripping up. Poffman just continues to keep Hanovo with their bags up against the wall. Clyin Derek Holdman keeps it low. Holdman and holding on. Vikov had to Hoffman was right there ready. That is stray and senseier of nervousness all of a sudden around this place. Patinho Spider-Man. He'd only actually stepped up as he
