Events
Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Borussia-Park will turn into a battlefield for Borussia Monchengladbach and Borussia Dortmund.
- 5' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Julian Ryerson made 435 appearances and scored 9 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' Borussia Dortmund started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 15.
- 20' It looks surprising Borussia Monchengladbach does not make any changes. Franck Honorat has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 25' The travelling Borussia Dortmund supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 30' 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 Samuele Inacio suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Borussia Dortmund winning 50% of all matches.
- 40' It’s high time Eugen Polański made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 45' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 45 minutes.
- 50' 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.
- 54' That looks like a foul for a card for Kevin Stoger.
- 56' That looks like a foul for a card for Nico Schlotterbeck.
- 61' Borussia Dortmund is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 66' It looks like no one’s ball. Borussia Dortmund is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 71' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 76' Borussia Dortmund is showing some good football. However, Borussia Dortmund are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 81' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Borussia Monchengladbach that had 479 games and scored 511 goals.
- 86' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 87' That looks like a foul for a card for Nico Elvedi.
- 88' GOAL! Haris Tabakovic scores on 88. Assisted by Rocco Reitz
- 90' It’s a booking for Borussia Monchengladbach player. Haris Tabakovic gets a card.
- With this win, Borussia Monchengladbach is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
