Hamburger SV - Borussia Dortmund live updates

Chance for Ilicevic after a lovely lay off from Lasogga but he slices it well wide. That was a good opportunity.

Just a reminder, if you’re just joining us. The match kicked off 15 minutes late due to traffic congestion outside the stadium, possibly as a result of increased security.

Still no chances to talk of as yet in this one. A slow burner, we hope.

Kagawa takes on Sakai and gets a good cross in but Adler alert to the danger and claims well on his near post.

POSSESSION: Hamburg 50%50% Dortmund

A late challenge on Hummels and Dortmund win the free kick. No rhythm for the visitors so far.

Reus takes and it’s deflected over for a Dortmund corner. Well defended in the end. Adler claims from the resultant corner.

Clumsy challenge from Spahic on Aubameyang and a really promising position for Dortmund.

Good rotation from Mkhitaryan, Kagawa and Aubameyang. A nightmare for any defence and Hamburg must beware of that.

All Hamburg do far. Dominating the early possession. Dortmund slow out of the blocks.

A first corner for Hamburg. Holtby takes but Dortmund scramble it clear.

Once again Lasogga just straying offside but he gives a thumbs up. Just the kind of ball he wants in behind the Dortmund defence. Good start from the home side.

Already a joyous atmosphere inside the Volksparkstadion. Both sets of fans in great voice.

Offside flag up against Lasogga as Holtby almost plays him in. Looked a slightly harsh call.

Kick-off! Finally we’re underway here as referee Felix Zwayer blows the whistle to get us underway here. An entertaining match in prospect.

The players now lining up on the pitch and there will follow a minute’s silence.

Well looks like it may be slightly more than a 15 minute delay. Heavy traffic outside the stadium due to additional security measures.

FIVE MINUTES TO KICK-OFF: BVB are unbeaten in 19 Friday fixtures (W17, D2), winning each of their last 10. Their last defeat dates back to February 2010, when they were beaten 2-1 by Schalke.
