Magdeburg earned a commanding 3-0 victory over Hannover in the 2. Bundesliga, spoiling Sandro Wagner's debut as Hannover head coach.

Mateusz Zukowski sealed the emphatic win by adding a third goal in the 85th minute, pushing Petrik Sander's side up to fourth place in the league table.

The defeat compounds Hannover's early-season struggles, leaving them with just seven points from their opening seven games despite pre-season promotion expectations following the dismissal of Christian Titz.
