Despite strong support from the club's supporters, 1. FC Kaiserslautern had to settle for a goalless draw in their away game against SV Sandhausen.

In the end, both teams lacked the necessary accuracy in the attacking third in the south-west duel on Sunday.

In the table, the Palatinate remain in sixth place with twelve points.

The SVS has been waiting for a win for four games now.

Coach Alois Schwartz's team is still in 13th place in the table.

In front of 11,378 spectators, who mostly supported FCK, Sandhausen had the better chances.

Again and again prevented Lautern's goalkeeper Andreas Luthe from leading the SVS.

However, the guests also had good opportunities.

Marlon Ritter failed in the 73rd minute by Sandhausen goalkeeper Patrick Drewes and a little later Terrence Boyd didn't put enough pressure on the ball with his head.

Hannover 96 wins away

Hannover 96 continued its winning streak: Lower Saxony won for the fourth time in a row.

The Hanoverians won 1-0 (1-0) at FC Hansa Rostock.

Maximilian Beier (41st minute) gave the guests the lead with a penalty just before the break.

In the second half, the Hanseatic League got better and better, but sometimes failed because of the strong Hanoverian goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler.

Lukas Hinterseer, who was unlucky at Hannover last season and switched to Rostock in the summer, played for Hansa from the start.

The 31-year-old Austrian was hardly noticed in the game and was substituted after 78 minutes.

Hannover got off to a good start, but then a rather tough second division game developed, which was decided by the legitimate penalty.

Later compensation in Darmstadt

SV Darmstadt 98 missed the jump back to second place in the table.

The southern Hesse team only managed a 1-1 (1-0) draw against Arminia Bielefeld, who had been relegated to the Bundesliga, and are now fourth with 14 points.

In front of 13,860 spectators, Braydon Manu gave Darmstadt the lead in the eighth minute, which Robin Hack equalized in the fourth minute of injury time.

Darmstadt's dominance in the early stages was rewarded with an early goal from Manu, who slotted the ball through the legs after a pass from Fabian Schnellhardt Bielefeld goalkeeper Martin Fraisl.

In return, Bryan Lasme missed the quick equalizer when he shot the ball from a few yards into the crossbar after a defense by Darmstadt goalkeeper Marcel Schuhen came up short.

Ten minutes later, Schuhen saved the superior hosts from conceding a goal when he deflected an Oliver Hüsing header.

In a hard-fought game, Marvin Mehlem (39th) missed the second goal for Darmstadt.

Even after the half-time break, the game remained open.

Bielefeld tried to score, but Hack first failed on shoes (52nd) and later only hit the outer post.

Almost with the last action, Hack scored with a fine flick and robbed Darmstadt of the success they believed to be sure.
