Despite Sandhausen accruing a higher number of yellow cards than Rot-Weiss Essen, 5 to 0 respectively, their aggressive defense did not hinder their scoring abilities on the field. Interestingly, the away team took the lead early in the first half with their first goal recorded at the 37th minute. This surely boosted their morale for the rest of the game, maintaining pressure on the home team's defence.

Meanwhile, the home team, Rot-Weiss Essen, failed to turn their possession into goals, only managing to score in the second half at the 72nd minute, which brought the scores to a level 1-1 tie momentarily before Sandhausen's second goal at the 64th minute within the same half.

Deservedly, the spotlight in this match was on Sandhausen's strategic gameplay, which, despite edging on foul play, resulted in two essential goals. Their ability to maintain a solid defense, as reflected in a single foul and an offside made the home team's efforts fruitless.
