Match Events
- 0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for RB Leipzig to score. At the same time, Holstein Kiel does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' It looks surprising RB Leipzig does not make any changes. Phil Harres has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 15' It’s high time Zsolt Low made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Arthur Vermeeren, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 25' 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 Marko Ivezic suffering a number of foals already.
- 29' Lasse Rosenboom is having his name booked by the referee on 29.
- 34' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?

- 61' Timo Becker has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 34 appearances with only 0 goals this season.

- 79' Finn Porath has so much to prove this time. He replaces Lasse Rosenboom on 79 minute.
