Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. Holstein Kiel get us underway at Holstein-Stadion.
  • 5' Holstein Kiel started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 5.
  • 10' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Marcel Rapp might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 25' Both keepers have barely been tested. Holstein Kiel and RB Leipzig are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 27' What a strike from Benjamin Sesko! The score is 0-1.
  • 32' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. RB Leipzig needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 35' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Armin Gigovic on 35 minutes.
  • 40' Holstein Kiel are deployed in a 3-5-2 today, looking to exploit space against RB Leipzig's 4-4-2 shape.
  • 45' RB Leipzig have won 747 goals from 524 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 46' A change in the Holstein Kiel ranks — Magnus Knudsen exits the field as Steven Skrzybski enters on 46.
  • 51' It’s high time Marcel Rapp made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 56' Lois Openda was booked on 56.
  • 61' 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 Andre Silva suffering a number of foals already.
  • 62' The crowd applauds Armin Gigovic as he leaves the pitch. Lewis Holtby steps in for Holstein Kiel.
  • 63' The crowd applauds Lutsharel Geertruida as he leaves the pitch. Lukas Klostermann steps in for RB Leipzig.
  • 67' The referee calls foul for Timon Weiner. He receives a card.
  • 68' It’s a booking for Holstein Kiel player. Marvin Schulz gets a card.
  • 69' What composure from Andre Silva! The Portugal international strokes it home. 0-2.
  • 74' A tactical swap from Holstein Kiel — Alexander Bernhardsson on, Marvin Schulz off on 74 minutes.
  • 74' Poor challenge from Arthur Vermeeren. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.
  • 79' It looks like no one’s ball. Holstein Kiel is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 80' Another substitution for Holstein Kiel to replace Shuto Machino by Benedikt Pichler on 80 minute.
  • 83' Benjamin Henrichs has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 83.
  • 88' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 90' Kevin Kampl gets the nod from RB Leipzig. He replaces Arthur Vermeeren and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 90' Alexander Bernhardsson has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for RB Leipzig players.
