Daisuke Yokota beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 27. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Bastian Allgeier keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Hannover 96 may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match19 Dec 2026

The wait goes on for Hannover 96

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Match19 Dec 2026

The goals have deserted Hannover 96

4 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Hannover 96 can tell you which week it ends in.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Daisuke Yokota pulls a muscle — 16 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 16 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Words at Hannover 96 training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Raphael Obermair is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match19 Dec 2026

Hannover 96 come up short against VfL Bochum

VfL Bochum left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Appearance number 200 for Stefán Teitur Þórðarson

200 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

No hiding place for João Pedro

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to João Pedro, and the manager let it.

Match5 Dec 2026

Still nobody has beaten Hannover 96

The unbeaten run reaches 12. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Raphael Obermair falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings7 Dec 2026

Daisuke Yokota was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Looking ahead7 Dec 2026

Hannover 96 and Schalke 04 meet at the summit

The fixture the rest of the division is looking forward to more than either of the sides in it. Both know a win changes the season and a defeat does not end it, which is what makes it hard to play.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Luca Kilian in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Hannover 96 this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings7 Dec 2026

Nobody on the pitch touched Max Geschwill

7.30, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Hannover 96 had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Virgil Ghiţă named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Virgil Ghiţă is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout7 Dec 2026

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Martin Scholz was not hiding it after 0‑0, and nobody in the Hannover 96 dressing room was either.

Squad7 Dec 2026

Virgil Ghiţă loses the armband

The captaincy has been taken off Virgil Ghiţă. Hannover 96 will call it a decision about the team; a dressing room reads it as a verdict on a man.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Isac Lidberg: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Hannover 96 have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Words at Hannover 96 training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Raphael Obermair is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad16 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Hannover 96

Virgil Ghiţă and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

A promise honoured at Hannover 96

Something was said to João Pedro and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

Market16 Nov 2026

No place for Brooklyn Ezeh in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Brooklyn Ezeh has his answer from Hannover 96; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Looking ahead16 Nov 2026

Raphael Obermair goes back to face Magdeburg

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Raphael Obermair’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Hannover 96 needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Squad16 Nov 2026

Leo Weinkauf has seen what the next man earns

Numbers do not stay secret in a dressing room and never have. He is not asking for more than he is worth; he is asking why somebody beside him is worth more, and at Hannover 96 that is a harder question to answer.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Waniss Taïbi asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

The dugout16 Nov 2026

Håvard Nielsen has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Håvard Nielsen has written the date down.
