In today’s game, a slow start from Hamburg SV gave Hannover 96 the advantage as the home team capitalised to score in the first four minutes through Sei Muroya.

Thanks to the resilient display by the visitors, the team responded 10 minutes later as pressure forced Julian Borner to put the ball in the back of his own net to restore parity.

After the break when the game was at a stalemate, Ghana forward Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer was introduced in the 70^th minute to bolster the attack of Hamburg SV.

His introduction put the away team on the front foot as the team created numerous chances.

Eventually, in injury time, Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer scored with a fine strike to seal a 2-1 win for Hamburg SV to merit the maximum three points.

For his heroics today, the Black Stars newbie earned a high rating of 7.6.
