Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Bayer 04 Leverkusen kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 10' It looks like no one’s ball. Borussia Monchengladbach is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 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 Lukas Hradecky suffering a number of foals already.
  • 16' Poor challenge from Victor Boniface. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 18' Magnificent from Victor Boniface! That is 54 goals in 61 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 23' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 28' It is a cagey affair so far. Borussia Monchengladbach in their 5-4-1 trying to find a way past Bayer 04 Leverkusen's compact 3-4-2-1.
  • 33' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Gerardo Seoane will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 38' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 43' Arthur Augusto, a Brazil , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 45' Borussia Monchengladbach receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 45.
  • 50' Borussia Monchengladbach currently sit 12 in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 51' GOAL! Jonathan Tah fires home to make it 0-2!
  • 53' Victor Boniface has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 53 minutes.
  • 58' Jonas Hofmann is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Bayer 04 Leverkusen tonight.
  • 63' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 67' The Borussia Monchengladbach manager makes a substitution. Florian Neuhaus departs to be replaced by Rocco Reitz.
  • 69' The whistle greets Jeremie Frimpong as he departs to be replaced by Arthur Augusto.
  • 70' Fresh legs for Bayer 04 Leverkusen! Robert Andrich comes on to replace Exequiel Palacios.
  • 75' Franck Honorat needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Red cards this season.
  • 79' Another substitution for Borussia Monchengladbach to replace Tomas Cvancara by Grant-Leon Ranos on 79 minute.
  • 81' Josip Stanisic is replacing Odilon Kossounou for the Bayer 04 Leverkusen side.
  • 86' Over 86 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 88' Lukas Ullrich has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ko Itakura on 88 minute.
  • The final whistle goes. A composed, disciplined performance from Bayer 04 Leverkusen to claim maximum points.
