Events

Match Events

0' In just a few seconds Borussia-Park will turn into a battlefield for Borussia Mönchengladbach and Bayer 04 Leverkusen.

23' Jonas Hofmann needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
28' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Borussia Mönchengladbach that had 481 games and scored 516 goals.
33' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Xabi Alonso will be considering his options from the bench.
38' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
43' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Bayer 04 Leverkusen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

69' Another change for Bayer 04 Leverkusen made on 69 minute. Jeremie Frimpong leaves to be changed by Arthur Augusto.
70' Bayer 04 Leverkusen ring the changes. Exequiel Palacios has done his job and it is now time for Robert Andrich to step up.
75' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
79' Grant-Leon Ranos gets the nod from Borussia Monchengladbach. He replaces Tomas Cvancara and will look to change the dynamic.
81' Another substitution for Bayer 04 Leverkusen to replace Odilon Kossounou by Josip Stanisic on 81 minute.
86' With 4 assists to his name this season, Florian Wirtz is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Borussia Mönchengladbach.
