Events

Match Events

  • 0' We are underway at MHPArena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
  • 5' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Borussia Dortmund needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 10' VfB Stuttgart is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 15' VfB Stuttgart 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.
  • 20' Borussia Dortmund is showing some good football. However, Borussia Dortmund are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 25' It’s high time Sebastian Hoeneß made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 29' A meaty challenge results in booking for Carney Chukwuemeka on 29.
  • 34' 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.
  • 39' Julian Ryerson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 44' 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 Angelo Stiller suffering a number of foals already.
  • 49' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 49 minutes.
  • 54' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Borussia Dortmund winning 50% of all matches.
  • 59' Borussia Dortmund looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Julian Brandt scoring 1 goals.
  • 64' Borussia Dortmund manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Karim Adeyemi is hanging Carney Chukwuemeka on the field on 64 minute.
  • 65' It’s a booking for VfB Stuttgart player. Ramon Hendriks gets a card.
  • 69' Another substitution for VfB Stuttgart to replace Chris Fuhrich by Jamie Leweling on 69 minute.
  • 71' The referee calls foul for Marcel Sabitzer. He receives a card.
  • 72' Another change for Borussia Dortmund made on 72 minute. Maximilian Beier leaves to be changed by Julian Brandt.
