No goal, just one point: 1. FC Magdeburg are treading water in the 2nd Bundesliga with a 0-0 draw at Hannover 96. A lack of determination in finishing and numerous sticking errors prevented a Magdeburg success. However, with 43 points, FCM remain within sight of the promotion zone.
"I think it's a fair draw. They had very good chances from set-pieces, we lacked the final consistency. Nevertheless, we'll take a point from such a strong opponent here," analyzed Baris Atik on Sky after the match.
Coach Christian Titz returned to his usual central defence in Hannover - Daniel Heber returned after his yellow card suspension. Philipp Hercher replaced Frenchman Samuel Loric on the wing.
The game began with a festival of chances for the hosts: First Dominik Reimann saved a ball that had slipped through with a foot reflex (2nd), then Hercher cleared on the line (4th), before Reimann was right again (4th).
