Live comments

  • 0' - We are underway at Stadion Essen. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' - It looks surprising Bayer 04 Leverkusen does not make any changes. Florian Wirtz has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 10' - Supporters expect more eagerness from Simon Engelmann, as he is very good at scoring at Stadion Essen with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
  • 13' - Exequiel Palacios is having his name booked by the referee on 13.
  • 18' - Bayer 04 Leverkusen is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 23' - Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 28' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 28 minutes.
  • 33' - Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 38' - It’s high time Peter Bosz made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 43' - Bayer 04 Leverkusen 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.
  • 44' - Bayer 04 Leverkusen manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Moussa Diaby is hanging Karim Bellarabi on the field on 44 minute.
  • 46' - Another substitution for Bayer 04 Leverkusen to replace Patrik Schick by Wendell on 46 minute.
  • 51' - 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 Karim Bellarabi suffering a number of foals already.
  • 56' - Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Bayer 04 Leverkusen needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 61' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Exequiel Palacios made 125 appearances and scored 14 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
