"Hannover" 2 – 0 "Cottbus"

From the very beginning of the match, the hosts took the initiative into their hands, creating many opportunities but failing to capitalize on them. In the 37th minute, "Hannover" finally broke through "Cottbus" defense when defender Vinicius Bergantin hit the goal with a precise header after a cross from Szabolcz Huszti. This was the defender's third accurate shot in this championship.
In the second half, all doubts were resolved with another goal scored by the hosts. 7 minutes before the end of the match, forward Arnold Bruggink scored his sixth goal in the championship, helping the team to achieve an important victory.
This was the third consecutive victory for "Hannover", returning hope to the team to fight for a ticket to the UEFA Cup tournament next year. "Hannover" climbed to the 7th place in the league table, while "Cottbus" dropped to 9th.
On Saturday, the leader Schalke from Gelsenkirchen will face the 5th placed club "Nurnberg", while Stuttgart in the 2nd position will clash with one of the outsiders, "Mainz".
On Sunday, the 4th-placed Werder Bremen will face Berlin's club Hertha. Defending champions Bayern Munich, who suffered two consecutive losses, will have a chance to redeem themselves on Saturday in a match against "Gladbach", who have been relegated to a lower league.
