Lackluster Draw in Darmstadt: Darmstadt’s Dominance Doesn’t Translate into Goals
Darmstadt, Germany – In a match held at the Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor, SV Darmstadt 98 and Hertha BSC drew in a game marked by intensity in midfield and a lack of clarity in the opponent’s area. Under the refereeing of Lars Erbst, Darmstadt dominated possession with 60%, consistently seeking to break through the Berlin defense. However, despite generating 13 shots, only 4 found the target, highlighting the home team’s difficulty in converting their chances.
Hertha BSC, on the other hand, opted for a more direct game, although their effectiveness also left something to be desired. Of their 15 shots, only one forced the Darmstadt goalkeeper into action. The match was interrupted by numerous fouls (12 by Darmstadt and 17 by Hertha), reflecting the constant struggle for control of the ball. The referee showed yellow cards to M. Richter of Darmstadt and L. Jensen of Hertha BSC. The match, corresponding to the third matchday of the 2. Bundesliga, Season 2025, ended with a bittersweet feeling for both teams, leaving the impression that Darmstadt wasted an opportunity to add three important points at home.
