Events

Match Events

  • 0' Packed stands, loud atmosphere — RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart get this one started.

  • 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering VfB Stuttgart that had 438 games and scored 440 goals.
  • 24' Poor challenge from Ibrahima Konate. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 29' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lukas Klostermann made 513 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

  • 75' The whistle greets Gonzalo Castro as he departs to be replaced by Atakan Karazor.

  • 88' A change in the VfB Stuttgart ranks — Tanguy Coulibaly exits the field as Darko Churlinov enters on 88.
  • 89' A tactical swap from VfB Stuttgart — Darko Churlinov on, Tanguy Coulibaly off on 89 minutes.
