Hannover's coach, Christian Prokop, was displeased with his team's defensive play, expressing his frustration during his first timeout. Hamburg, on the other hand, was unhappy with their shooting accuracy. Sauter pointed out during the halftime break on the streaming service Dyn that they were wasting a few too many shots. Despite creating small advantages, Hamburg struggled to maintain them, and TSV quickly equalized and even took the lead. However, Frederik Bo Andersen managed to secure an equalizer for the hosts.
Both MT and Hannover have now played two more games than the third-placed team from Magdeburg.
