Table of Contents
A fabulous free-kick from Szabolcs Huszti sealed a 2-0 home victory for Hannover 96 over 10-man Eintracht Frankfurt and ended a seven-match winless run in the Bundesliga.
After an edgy opening by both parties, the hosts swiftly assumed control of proceedings in terms of possession, tackling, and scoring opportunities.
Mame Biram Diouf opened the scoring for Hannover after 24 minutes and the visitors' task was made tougher when Martin Lanig was sent off for a second bookable offence 12 minutes into the second half.
Frankfurt's fading hopes were then snuffed out completely midway through the second half.
Just seconds after having a penalty shout turned down, Hannover won a contentious free kick of their own just outside the area with Frankfurt coach Armin Veh banished to the stands for over-vociferously protesting.
And Huszti promptly rubbed salt in Frankfurt's wounds by curling the ball perfectly over the wall and into the top corner for his sixth goal of the season.
