Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: VfB Stuttgart gets underway.
  • 5' 1. FSV Mainz 05 are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 10' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering VfB Stuttgart that had 440 games and scored 446 goals.
  • 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. 1. FSV Mainz 05 needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 20' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His 1. FSV Mainz 05 side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 25' 1. FSV Mainz 05 are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 30' 1. FSV Mainz 05 started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 35' With 0 assists to his name this season, Gerrit Holtmann is clearly more than just a goal scorer for VfB Stuttgart.
  • 40' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 42' Fresh legs for 1. FSV Mainz 05! Pierre Kunde Malong comes on to replace Jean-Philippe Gbamin.
  • 47' Pablo De Blasis, a Argentina , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 52' It’s high time Tayfun Korkut made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 57' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Stefan Bell suffering a number of foals already.
  • 59' Nicolas Gonzalez makes way for Daniel Didavi at the 59 minute mark. A tactical switch from VfB Stuttgart.
  • 63' A meaty challenge results in booking for Gerrit Holtmann on 63.
  • 67' Anthony Ujah is replacing Jean-Philippe Mateta for the 1. FSV Mainz 05 side.
  • 72' The travelling VfB Stuttgart supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 76' Anthony Ujah has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 76 minutes.
  • 79' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Santiago Ascacibar.
  • 81' Another substitution for VfB Stuttgart to replace Erik Thommy by Chadrac Akolo on 81 minute.
  • 84' VfB Stuttgart make a change. Emiliano Insua trudges off to be replaced by Borna Sosa on 84 minutes.
  • 89' Karim Onisiwo is ready to make an impact after coming on for Gerrit Holtmann at the 89 minute mark.
  • 90' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Borna Sosa.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for VfB Stuttgart.
