HALF TIMEAugsburg 0-1 Hamburg

43 minsNow Rudnevs has been told to get up, which he does so gingerly.

40 minsReplays showed minimal contact. He went down far too easy and the referee was wise to his trickery.

39 minsBOOKING! Son goes down on the edge of Augsburg's area as if he's been tripped, but the referee sees it as a dive and the South Korean goes into the book. Arslan also saw yellow for his foul on Musona.

37 minsThe ball in launched into the are and neither Vogt nor Musona could fire through the crowded penalty area.

35 minsAugsburg are battling in midfield more now and getting in the faces of the Hamburg players.

30 minsCHANCE! Hain is unmarked at the near post but sweeps it straight at Adler's legs. He rather snatched at it and will no doubt be kicking himself. That could and probably should have been the equaliser.

26 minsCHANCE! Rudnevs harries the Augsburg backline and the ball breaks to Son. The South Korean advances on goal an nudges it through to Van der Vaart, but the Dutchman tries to return the ball with a backheel... unsuccessfully. Everyone was expecting a shot.

22 minsSHOT! Hain has a go from a tight angle and it flashes across Adler's goal.

21 minsMusona has a chance to run at Hamburg's defence but he and Hain are not on the same wavelength. Musona underhits his pass and Hamburg regain possession.

14 minsRudnevs did brilliantly to control the ball and feed Son quickly. The finish was sublime.

12 minsGOAL! SON OPENS THE SCORING FOR HAMBURG!
