Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig get this one started.
  • 5' Roman Burki is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for RB Leipzig tonight.
  • 10' RB Leipzig are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 15' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Borussia Dortmund side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Lucien Favre might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 23' Magnificent from Julian Weigl! That is 11 goals in 525 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 28' Marco Reus has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 1 cards already picked up this season.
  • 33' RB Leipzig is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 34' What a strike from Julian Brandt! The score is 0-2.
  • 39' Diego Demme has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 44' Dayot Upamecano is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for RB Leipzig so far.
  • 46' Time for substitution for RB Leipzig. Emil Forsberg is replaced by Christopher Nkunku.
  • 47' Goal! Timo Werner scores his 116 goal in 166 matches.
  • 52' 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 Manuel Akanji suffering a number of foals already.
  • 53' Magnificent from Timo Werner! That is 116 goals in 166 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 55' Jadon Sancho adds to his 0 season tally! BV Borussia 09 Dortmund lead 0-5 — and this changes everything.
  • 60' Borussia Dortmund is showing some good football. However, Borussia Dortmund are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 62' It is a substitution in RB Leipzig team. Yussuf Poulsen is replaced by Patrik Schick on 62 minute.
  • 67' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Borussia Dortmund that had 525 games and scored 809 goals.
  • 70' Matheus Cunha has so much to prove this time. He replaces Marcel Sabitzer on 70 minute.
  • 71' The supporters are chanting for Lukasz Piszczek. He replaces Jadon Sancho on 71 minute.
  • 76' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 77' Patrik Schick does the damage! The net is bulging and RB Leipzig surge ahead!
  • 82' Borussia Dortmund are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against RB Leipzig's shape.
  • 84' The whistle greets Raphael Guerreiro as he departs to be replaced by Nico Schulz.
  • 89' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • The final score is 3-3.
