- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' 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 Roberto Massimo suffering a number of foals already.
- 20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 25' The 31-year-old Philipp Forster has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.

- 35' Wataru Endo, a Japan , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 36' The referee has no hesitation. Tanguy Coulibaly is booked for VfB Stuttgart — Yellow card on 36.

- 48' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Waldemar Anton on 48 minutes.
- 53' The energy levels are beginning to show. Marco Rose might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 56' What a moment for Donyell Malen! That strike on 56 puts his side firmly in control.
- 61' Manuel Akanji is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for VfB Stuttgart tonight.
- 63' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Roberto Massimo makes it 1-1.
- 64' Borussia Dortmund manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Emre Can is hanging Raphael Guerreiro on the field on 64 minute.
- 68' Another substitution for VfB Stuttgart to replace Atakan Karazor by Nikolas Nartey on 68 minute.
