Van Dijk hands Liverpool a UCL boost and reason to believe after more late drama
Liverpool secures a thrilling late win against Everton in the Merseyside derby!
Braunschweig secured a draw against ten-man Hertha in the 2. Bundesliga after Max Marie equalized late in the match. Hertha's captain Fabian Reese initially gave them the lead before Kennet Eichhorn was sent off in the second half.
Hertha looked set to claim all three after captain Fabian Reese gave them an early lead, but the game turned on its head following Kennet Eichhorn’s second-half dismissal. Braunschweig made their extra man count, as Max Marie struck 13 minutes from time to level proceedings.
The visitors made a bright start and were handed a golden opportunity inside the opening 10 minutes when Ron-Thorben Hoffmann brought down Luca Schuler in the penalty area. Reese stepped up to take the spot kick, and although his initial effort was saved by Hoffmann, the Hertha skipper reacted quickest to convert the rebound and put his side ahead.
Hertha continued to threaten and could have doubled their lead before the break. Reese remained a constant danger, while Schuler struck the woodwork midway through the first half after a well-worked move.
Braunschweig, however, grew into the contest late in the first period. A series of corners caused problems for the visitors, but Tjark Ernst produced a string of impressive saves to preserve Hertha’s narrow advantage heading into half-time.
The hosts emerged with renewed intensity after the interval, pushing Hertha deeper and creating opportunities of their own. Jovan Mijatović and Lino Tempelmann both went close as Braunschweig searched for an equaliser.
Despite being under pressure, Hertha still carried a threat on the counter. Schuler came within inches of doubling the lead when he broke through on goal, only to see his effort crash off the crossbar. Ernst was then called into action again, producing an excellent save to deny Mijatović from close range.
The decisive moment arrived in the 71st minute when Eichhorn was shown a straight red card following a VAR review for a reckless challenge. Braunschweig quickly took advantage of their numerical superiority, and just seven minutes later they found their equaliser.
The match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Fabian Reese scored for Hertha, and Max Marie equalized for Braunschweig.
Kennet Eichhorn was dismissed in the second half, reducing Hertha to ten players.

Marie picked up possession on the edge of the area, showed quick feet to evade a challenge, and rifled a superb strike into the top-left corner beyond Ernst to make it 1-1.
Neither side was able to carve out a clear-cut chance in the closing stages, despite eight minutes of added time, as the match ultimately ended all square.
The result does little to significantly aid either side’s ambitions. Braunschweig extend their winless run to five matches and remain in the relegation zone, while Hertha’s failure to secure victory further dents their already slim promotion hopes.
