That was an important goal for Heidenheim in the last minute. This means that Heidenheim are still unbeaten at home and the streak from Darmstadt is over. Before that, they had not lost 21 games in a row.
In the table places 1-3 are only 3 points apart. Each team now has to look at itself as they will not play each other again.

One team that has made a big jump in the table is St. Pauli. They are now 14 points away from place 16 and should have nothing to do with relegation anymore in this season.

Hamburger is in the second position on the table. Of course, that is great. And with Darmstadt losing the last match, these two teams have come to a lot closer right now. I believe they only have one point difference between them.

Kiel and Dusseldorf both need to be consistent. Because if they keep winning they are going to improve their standing on the table.

the hsv has won today its game against nürnberg with 3-0 and remains second in the 2. bundesliga. the goals in front of 57000 fans shot
Jean-Luc Dompé , Ludovit Reis and Ransford-Yeboah Königsdörffer . the hsv has now 48 points and best chances to create the direct promotion to the 1.bundesliga ....

kiel has played today 1:1 draw in sandhausen and düsseldorf has won narrowly in regensburg with 1:0

Yes, Darmstadt can lose, Darmstadt is a team that has had great successes and can stay at the top of the table, but it would be very sad if they lose, because losing points at this point is not good.

Darmstadt is a team that has shown that it has a sufficient level for the Bundesliga and they are excited to get there, they cannot be neglected because the 2nd Bundesliga is one of the most exciting leagues, and suddenly unexpected results can happen, and everything can change.

I would be sad that they began to have bad streaks and not qualify, but I come back and repeat I don't see it as possible.

Well, hoping that Darmstadt can widen their points gap, I don't think they will have any problems winning, however, anything can happen, Darmstadt would easily reach 52 points, not bad.

Heidenheim  vs  Darmstadt

I am looking forward to the Darmstadt vs Heidenheim match. The match is expected to be very competitive. Darmstadt will not want to lose the top spot in the table. They are only 4 points behind second-placed Hamburgers in the table. Heidenheim on the other hand is very strong in home matches. Heidenheim have won their last two home matches against Darmstadt. And Heidenheim has been in good form this season. And so it looks like it will be very difficult for Darmstadt to win today's away match. But my favorite in this match is Darmstadt.

Dortmund have played well and won the match 2-1. The goals came at the 21^st and 39^th minute. Leipzig had the best in terms of pass accuracy, ball possession and shots on target. However they weren't able to turn those to be goals until the 74^th minute.

With the win Dortmund makes a seven points lead on the points table. With this Dortmund makes its ten wins in a row. From the beginning of the match Leipzig scared the Dortmund with their shots. Possibly it is their bad luck this time.

It has been great match so far in the German bundesliga today in the encounter between Brusia Dortmund and Rb Leipzig, I will say that this match is crucial because of how important it is to both teams but when I consider the two team form I will give it to the host team which is Brusia Dormund because they have performed very well this season and also consistent in all round both in ball control in other words ball possession, the away team is also good but we can't compare their recent form with that of the host team.

magdeburg is getting better and better. today magdeburg won against kaiserslautern with 2-0 . that is already a small surprise.
in the other match st.pauli has won in paderborn with 2-1. the first defeat after last 4 wins for paderborn . the two goals for st. pauli shot lukas daschner.
tomorrow then play both favorites for promotion . the hsv against nürnberg and darmstadt in heidenheim

Magdeburg : Kaiserslautern 2:0
Paderborn : FC St. Pauli 1:2

I do not see that as a problem. I think the sports director is even taking a very big risk. Because if it does not work with him either, then he will also be questioned. If he only works as a coach for a few match days, that would be okay. But if he works as a coach until the end of the season, like Hecking, then he is also completely responsible.

I don't know but for me such moves where a sports director is basically firing his coach in order to become the coach himself always has a kind of a bitter taste to me. Even though on paper the director of sports has obviously more power i still think that the position of coach is way more attractive to most people because as a coach you are way more in the spotlight of the media. Maybe it is different in this case because Dieter Hecking already had several stations as head coach and i doubt that he just wanted to be coach to get some attention again as i don't think that he even wants to have attention anymore. So far the change was successful as FCN finally have won a game again.

there are still 12 matchdays until the end of the season. 36 points are still to be awarded. darmstadt now has 49 points. how many points does darmstadt still need?
schalke had 65 points at the end of last season,before that bochum had 67 points and in 2019/2020 bielefeld had 68 points. all three teams have been promoted .
on matchday 22 all three clubs had fewer points in recent years. 41,42 and 44 points. normally, darmstadt should therefore be promoted 200% to the 1.bundesliga.

I concur with you completely here. What would tennis be without the eagle eye today? Technology is a must for the sake of fairness. Even when there is a lot of discussion about the VAR or whether it was one millimeter offside or not, it still prevents easy mistakes from happening. When the whole world could see that there was a two meters offside and the referee failed to see it. That is a thing of the past and that is good. There are still hard decisions when it comes to penalties, but when we want to see games on the best level possible, technology is indispensable.

There was a game between Darmstadt and Erzgebirge Aue in 2018 and Aue was 16th in the table. They needed a single point to stay in the 2. Bundesliga. On the last game day in the 86th minute Darmstadt scored a goal. Aue needed to score and they did in the last moment, but the referee didn't see the ball crossed the line. Aue ended up in relegation games.

The funny part about it is that Aue was the biggest opponent of goal line technology. They were harshly against it when the 2. Bundesliga had to decide whether to adopt it or not. They then argued that it must be a revenge scam from the Bundesliga in general, which is absurd of course. It went so far that the city council of Aue pressed charges against referee Storks for game manipulation!    

Yes technology is a must and goal line technology is so important. You can't blame a referee when it comes down to a centimeter or even several centimeters. Sometimes these situations happen at such a speed and the referee is forced to have his eyes everywhere. 

It is crystal clear that Darmstadt will be going in the Bundesliga next season,I was just giving a quick look to the stats at the standings from Flashscore and they have only lost one game in this season,that pretty much sums it up for me.I don't think though that they will be staying for long in the Bundesliga as we have seen them before anytime they have been promoted they have been again relegated after a couple of years,so in this context Darmstadt looks like not a team with stable finances to afford staying and competing for long in the Bundesliga.

If one look at Darmstadt's performance over the whole season, one cannot doubt that Darmstadt will be promoted. They lost their first match in the Bundesliga against Regensburg with 0:2. Since then, they have not lost a game. They will probably continue this remarkable series against Heidenheim. One could see in the game against Hamburg that they still remain calm even when they are behind with goals. Only Hamburg has that kind of calmness too. If everything stays the same both clubs will be promoted directly.

I also thought that this technique has been around for a long time in Bundesliga 2. But what about the VAR? He must have been watching the scene. And since he did not say anything it was probably clear. At least for him.
In the end Hamburg did everything right with the draw. It is always more difficult to play away. The important thing is that they keep place 2 and do not slip to place 3.

It is a fact, DARMSTADT has proven to be worthy of going to the Bundesliga, they also have a good level, it could be said that the Bundesliga is waiting only for the best, with the results they have shown is something impressive, there is a lot of competition currently, and without going too far, the fact that Bayern have won a game in the UCL against PSG and in the Bundesliga they are in danger of losing first place means that the level of football is very high, so Darmstadt has to see what will face soon, the same as HSV.


It is a fact that technology improves everything, it seems strange to me that in the 2nd Bundesliga they do not have it, I thought that in Europe in all leagues they had technology, because of everything that is happening in fútbol it is imperative that they show it with this, more so in a league where in the end the matches are always very decisive, when there is this type of competition it is needed, in addition the players are used to using technology in the Bundesliga and not a single detail escapes the players referees.

They need goal line technology like the other leagues have. The Premier League has goal line technology which alerts a watch on the referees arm if the 2nd Bundesliga had this technology we would not get mistakes like yesterday. I do not think it is expensive to run that system and it could be funded by the Bundesliga to build the technology in every stadium. Goal line technology was in the world cup to and I think it is a perfect system and gives instant feedback.

yes. the referee yesterday had an eagle eye . he should have also whistled in 1966 then we would have already been 5 x world champion

but today there was also a small sensation. magdeburg has won in hannover with 2:1. there were certainly 10k fans from magdeburg in hannover.
a great atmosphere in the stadium .st. pauli won against rostock with 1:0 and bielefeld lost 0:1 against heidenheim.

i also saw that yesterday and how here the referee can not decide on the goal for darmstadt is a mystery to me...
no one can see with the naked eye that the ball was still on the line... a few years ago this would have been a valid goal 10 times in 10 games and there would have been no discussion...

just my 2 satoshis

This scene is still a big topic of conversation. Was the ball in the goal, or was it not? In the second Bundesliga, there is no technique that could prove this as in the first Bundesliga. Maybe the ball were milimeters on the goal line and this is no goal for darmstadt. They  make the 1-1 later, if they had lost, that wouldnt fair. Darmstadt missed the entry in the first Bundesliga last season, but they should make it this year.
