5' 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.
10' With 0 assists to his name this season, Kerem Demirbay is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Borussia Monchengladbach.
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 Mitchel Bakker suffering a number of foals already.
20' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
25' Karim Bellarabi has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
