Ghanaian defender Derrick Köhn showcased his talent by playing a key role in Hannover 96’s hard-earned victory over Hansa Rostock in the 20th round of the Bundesliga 2 at the Heinz-von-Heiden-Arena on Saturday.
The 25-year-old’s important assist was instrumental in securing the win for his team.
Throughout the season, Köhn has displayed his versatile skills, scoring three goals and providing five assists in 20 matches in the German second tier.
In this particular match, the home team took the lead early on with an own goal by Kevin Schumacher just four minutes into the game.
However, FC Hansa Rostock fought back with determination, as Kai Pröger equalized with a right-footed shot from the left side of the six-yard box to the center of the goal. The match remained closely contested until the late stages.
With only 12 minutes remaining, Marcel Halstenberg became the hero for Hannover 96, scoring the decisive goal with a header from the left side of the six-yard box to the bottom left corner.
This winning moment was set up by Derrick Köhn, whose well-timed cross from a corner kick created the opportunity for Halstenberg’s crucial header.
