0' And we are off! Borussia Mönchengladbach vs Bayer 04 Leverkusen — let the football do the talking.
5' Fabian Johnson is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Borussia Mönchengladbach so far.
10' 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 Wendell suffering a number of foals already.
15' It looks like no one’s ball. Bayer 04 Leverkusen is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
20' Borussia Mönchengladbach are deployed in a today, looking to exploit space against Bayer 04 Leverkusen's shape.
25' Bayer 04 Leverkusen started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 25.
30' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
35' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.

45' Borussia Mönchengladbach are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Bayer 04 Leverkusen backline.
49' Dominik Kohr picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
51' Controversy at the stadium! Benjamin Henrichs argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
55' Jonas Hofmann does the damage! The net is bulging and Borussia Monchengladbach surge ahead!
58' The United States Fabian Johnson breaks the deadlock on 58 minutes. 0-2!
63' It looks surprising Borussia Mönchengladbach does not make any changes. Isaac Thelin has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
64' A change in the Bayer 04 Leverkusen ranks — Benjamin Henrichs exits the field as Isaac Thelin enters on 64.
69' Both keepers have barely been tested. Borussia Mönchengladbach and Bayer 04 Leverkusen are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
73' Controversy at the stadium! Matthias Ginter argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
77' The whistle greets Leon Bailey as he departs to be replaced by Mitchell Weiser.
79' A tactical swap from Borussia Monchengladbach — Alassane Plea on, Raffael off on 79 minutes.
83' It is a substitution in Borussia Monchengladbach team. Fabian Johnson is replaced by Patrick Herrmann on 83 minute.
