Events

Match Events

  • 0' KICK OFF: RB Leipzig gets underway.
  • 3' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Stefan Ilsanker.
  • 8' 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' RB Leipzig player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 15' FC Red Bull Salzburg seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Ralf Rangnick might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 25' Andre Ramalho has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 30' Fredrik Gulbrandsen has been relatively quiet despite scoring 8 goals in his last 222 appearances.
  • 31' FC Red Bull Salzburg player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 36' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 41' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 46' Nordi Mukiele is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for RB Leipzig so far.
  • 49' A moment of madness from Matheus Cunha on 49 minutes earns him a Yellow card. RB Leipzig will be frustrated.
  • 54' Stefan Lainer is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for RB Leipzig tonight.
  • 59' RB Leipzig come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 62' Another substitution for RB Leipzig to replace Jean-Kevin Augustin by Yussuf Poulsen on 62 minute.
  • 67' 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 Yvon Mvogo suffering a number of foals already.
  • 70' RB Leipzig make a change. Nordi Mukiele trudges off to be replaced by Lukas Klostermann on 70 minutes.
  • 74' Fredrik Gulbrandsen has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 74 minutes.
  • 76' The crowd applauds Fredrik Gulbrandsen as he leaves the pitch. Takumi Minamino steps in for FC Red Bull Salzburg.
  • 78' Marcelo Saracchi makes way for Marcel Halstenberg at the 78 minute mark. A tactical switch from RB Leipzig.
  • 83' Jean-Kevin Augustin, a France , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 87' Hannes Wolf makes way for Patson Daka at the 87 minute mark. A tactical switch from FC Red Bull Salzburg.
  • 90' FC Red Bull Salzburg receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 90.
  • 90' The whistle greets Munas Dabbur as he departs to be replaced by Smail Prevljak.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for FC Red Bull Salzburg players.
