- 10' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Borussia Monchengladbach and SV Werder Bremen are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 15' SV Werder Bremen are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 20' Maximilian Eggestein has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 22' Jiri Pavlenka picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.

- 42' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 47' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 47 minutes.
- 48' Controversy at the stadium! Josh Sargent argues furiously but the Yellow card stands.
- 53' SV Werder Bremen is showing some good football. However, SV Werder Bremen are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 56' SV Werder Bremen ring the changes. Omer Toprak has done his job and it is now time for Niklas Moisander to step up.
- 59' It is a substitution in Borussia Monchengladbach team. Patrick Herrmann is replaced by Lars Stindl on 59 minute.
- 64' Felix Agu needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
- 66' Magnificent from Nico Elvedi! That is 17 goals in 479 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 68' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Oscar Wendt.
- 73' Supporters expect more eagerness from Niklas Moisander, as he is very good at scoring at Stadion im Borussia-Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 74' Milot Rashica is replacing Romano Schmid for the SV Werder Bremen side.

- 82' The SV Werder Bremen bench stirs into life. Jean-Manuel Mbom is withdrawn and Yuya Osako gets his opportunity.

- 85' Time for substitution for Borussia Monchengladbach. Hannes Wolf is replaced by Tony Jantschke.
- 90' 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 Hannes Wolf suffering a number of foals already.
- Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-0 draw is a fair result on the day.
