Defense – Benjamin Huebner (TSG Hoffenheim): Hübner didn’t make it into the eleven of the match day because of strong tackle values or a high passing rate, but because of the fact that he returned to the Hoffenheim starting eleven after 574 days against Borussia Dortmund. A complicated ankle injury had bothered the 32-year-old. He had to take an extremely long break, but was confirmed as captain of the Kraichgau in the summer. There was a lot of applause for the defender in the Sinsheimer Arena. “Everyone now knows what we’ve been missing in the last year and a half. That’s why I’m super happy that he’s back.”, said coach Sebastian Hoeneß.
