Events
Match Events
- 0' That's the starting whistle at MHPArena. Ninety minutes of football awaits between VfB Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Lorenz Assignon, as he is very good at scoring at MHPArena with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 10' Germany international Julian Brandt has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 25' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both VfB Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 29' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Carney Chukwuemeka on 29 minutes.
- 34' It looks surprising VfB Stuttgart does not make any changes. Nico Schlotterbeck has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 39' Waldemar Anton has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 44' VfB Stuttgart is showing some good football. However, VfB Stuttgart are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 49' The travelling Borussia Dortmund supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 54' Karim Adeyemi is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for VfB Stuttgart so far.
- 59' 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.
- 64' The crowd applauds Carney Chukwuemeka as he leaves the pitch. Karim Adeyemi steps in for Borussia Dortmund.
- 65' Poor challenge from Ramon Hendriks. The referee spots it immediately and shows the card.

- 77' 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 Finn Jeltsch suffering a number of foals already.
- 80' The referee calls foul for Karim Adeyemi. He receives a card.
- 85' Over 85 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
