>>> UPDATE <<<

The

beats

earned

.

After a somewhat uneventful first half, the Hoeneß-Elf gathered in the second round and created opportunities.

After a good hour it was the Europa League debutant

who took the lead for the home side after a nice attack.

It was not until the third minute of stoppage time before

his 19th goal in the Europa League and brought about the decision for TSG.

FINAL WHISTLE

90th minute +3:

TOR in added time.

Samassekou served Dabbur and he was ice cold in front of Borjan and finished with the pick to make it 2-0.

Strong hit and debut goal in the Europa League for the Israeli.

Hoffenheim is through.

90th minute +3:

Hoffenheim wins the decisive duels, everything looks like a victory for TSG.

90th Minute:

Hoffenheim changes again, Skov comes into play for Sessegnon.

The normal playing time has expired, there are five minutes on top.

86th Minute:

The Serbs are working, but the income is missing.

Will Hoffenheim achieve their second win in a European game?

There are still four minutes left to play.

80th Minute:

Now Hoffenheim combined, the decisive pass is missing today in the Kraichgauer.

78th Minute:

Hoeneß also changes twice, Belfodil and debut goalscorer Baumgartner leave, Bebou and Bruun-Larsen now come into play for the final minutes.

75th Minute:

Red Star goes all in and will switch three times.

The guests had the opportunity to equalize again after a corner kick.

69 minutes:

Belgrade's Sango has the chance to equalize after a corner, but his header goes well over the goal of the home team.

64th minute:

TOR for TSG!

The spell is broken!

The European Cup debutant Christoph Baumgartner benefits from a nice cross from Rudy in the back of the defense and closes with the inside high.

The Austrian completes a strong attack.

At the same time there is trouble at Red Star!

Trainer Dejan Stankovic, long-time professional in Serie A, flies from his dugout with two yellow cats!

60th minute:

After a good hour, the Hoeneß-Elf is defining the game, but there is still not much going forward.

The Hoffenheim do not dare to do much and play very cautiously towards the box of Milan Borjan.

The TSG kickers are very stable defensively and still do not allow much.

57th Minute:

Katai and Rodic play their way into the 1899 penalty area, but Posch is wide awake and clears Rodic's cross to the corner, which does not bring anything.

53rd Minute:

Great excitement at Red Star!

Actually, Falcinelli is already through, but referee Hernandez whistles him back due to a previous tussle.

Annoying for the guests.

50th Minute:

Dabbur finishes from the edge of the penalty area well worth seeing!

But the Canadian national goalkeeper Borjan is there and saves his team from falling behind.

47 minutes:

After a free kick by the guests, defender Erakovic shoots - and scores!

But the 19-year-old was clearly on the sidelines.

46th Minute:

Hoffenheim changes once at halftime and brings Dennis Geiger and Diadie Samassekou for Grilitsch and Gacinovic.

HALF-TIME

45th minute:

In the last minute of the first half, the Hoffenheim team get their first big chance through Dabbur, but the Israeli hits the post from an extremely acute angle!

Ex-1860 player Milos Degenek was also involved in the action and cleared the ball for a corner.

Luck for Red Star, bad luck for TSG.

After the attack from Hoffenheim, Hernandez whistles for a break.

Sebastian Hoeneß goes into halftime with a 0-0 win in his first European Cup game.

Ahhh!

We'll get through there, but Muna's #Dabbur shot is scratched off the line 😔

43rd Minute:

Dabbur wants to make it particularly beautiful, but his heel in the penalty area ends up in the arms of keeper Borjan.

39th minute:

The Hoffenheim team remain patient and do not allow themselves to be disturbed, nor are they waiting for Red Star's mistake.

The offensive performance today is quite disappointing, Hoeneß has to convey the right message to his team at halftime, but it's still a few minutes.

34th Minute:

Belgrade can't think of much, the Serbs are now defending and lurking for their counter chance.

One of these counter-attacks came after 34 minutes, when Falcinelli almost received a pass from Spiridonovic, but Akpoguma was just able to clear the ball.

30. Minute:

After half an hour, a brief conclusion can be drawn.

TSG are doing well, but the last pass in the last third is simply missing.

However, the defense is very stable and has so far not allowed any serious chances.

26. Minute:

Gacinovic is placed in the penalty area by Sanogo, but the referee decides: no penalty!

What looked like a crystal clear foul is still compliant with the rules when looking at the TV pictures.

Strongly seen by Alejandro Fernandez from Spain, who does not have a video assistant.

22nd minute:

The Austrian European Cup debutant Baumgartner checks Borjan, who clears the corner.

This comes dangerous, Sessegnon's margin is blocked to the next corner.

This seems defended, but Hoffenheim's Dabbur continues and almost comes to an end.

The Krichgauer are slowly getting stronger.

20th Minute:

It is a competitive duel, but Hoffenheim still does not know what to do with the playground equipment.

Attack attempts by the TSG-Elf mostly petered out.

16. Minute:

Baumgartner stops Belgrade's Sanogo, who walks with the ball through half the midfield.

In the following free kick, the TSG players come out well - offside!

14.Minute:

The game is still playing between the penalty areas, Hoffenheim is put under pressure early on.

8th minute:

The guests come to their first conclusion through the Bologna loan from Falcinelli, but the ball goes far past Baumann's box.

6th minute:

The leader of the Serbian league goes into the game confidently and tries to put the first pinpricks in the beginning.

It's hard to say who is the favorite today.

2nd minute:

Hoffenheim starts well over Sessegnon on the left.

At the end of the first TSG attack, ex-Bayern player Sebastian Rudy simply closes, but his attempt goes a long way over the box.

Striker Dabbur would have been ready to shoot and complained a little to his teammate.
