Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: RB Leipzig gets underway.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Daniel Didavi made 453 appearances and scored 6 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Hungary international Dominik Szoboszlai has been a key figure this campaign — 2 goals and 2 assists in the Array this season.
- 15' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart are fighting for every inch of the pitch.

- 25' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 30' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.

- 43' Waldemar Anton is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for RB Leipzig tonight.

- 46' VfB Stuttgart make a change. Hamadi Al Ghaddioui trudges off to be replaced by Daniel Didavi on 46 minutes.

- 52' The deadlock is broken! Dominik Szoboszlai gets on the scoresheet on 52 minutes.
- 57' Konstantinos Mavropanos has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 62' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 64' Marc-Oliver Kempf was booked on 64.
- 65' Goal! Andre Silva scores his 104 goal in 125 matches.
- 68' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Philipp Forster.
- 69' Fresh legs for RB Leipzig! Marcel Sabitzer comes on to replace Amadou Haidara.
- 71' Poor challenge from Konstantinos Mavropanos. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 73' Fresh legs for VfB Stuttgart! Sasa Kalajdzic comes on to replace Mateo Klimowicz.
- 76' Time for substitution for RB Leipzig. Willi Orban is replaced by Nordi Mukiele.
- 81' A change in the VfB Stuttgart ranks — Philipp Forster exits the field as Erik Thommy enters on 81.
- 82' RB Leipzig ring the changes. Christopher Nkunku has done his job and it is now time for Yussuf Poulsen to step up.
- 84' Pascal Stenzel has so much to prove this time. He replaces Konstantinos Mavropanos on 84 minute.
- 89' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.
