Events
Match Events
- 0' And we are off! VfB Stuttgart vs SV Werder Bremen — let the football do the talking.
- 5' It is a cagey affair so far. VfB Stuttgart in their 4-2-2-2 trying to find a way past SV Werder Bremen's compact 3-5-2.
- 10' The 31-year-old Niklas Stark has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 15' VfB Stuttgart are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined SV Werder Bremen backline.
- 17' A stunning finish from Deniz Undav — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 22' SV Werder Bremen is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 27' VfB Stuttgart are deployed in a 4-2-2-2 today, looking to exploit space against SV Werder Bremen's 3-5-2 shape.
- 32' Both keepers have barely been tested. VfB Stuttgart and SV Werder Bremen are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 37' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Atakan Karazor made 282 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 42' 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 Romano Schmid suffering a number of foals already.
- 47' It looks like no one’s ball. VfB Stuttgart is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 52' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
- 57' named a 4-2-2-2 earlier, and opted for a 3-5-2 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 62' Marco Friedl has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
- 63' A tactical swap from SV Werder Bremen — Niklas Stark on, Milos Veljkovic off on 63 minutes.
- 68' 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.
- 70' A tactical swap from VfB Stuttgart — Josha Vagnoman on, Maximilian Mittelstadt off on 70 minutes.
- 71' VfB Stuttgart make a change. Deniz Undav trudges off to be replaced by Angelo Stiller on 71 minutes.
- 74' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Sehrou Guirassy makes it 2-0.
- 75' GOAL! Sehrou Guirassy fires home to make it 3-0!
- 79' VfB Stuttgart make a change. Silas Katompa Mvumpa trudges off to be replaced by Jamie Leweling on 79 minutes.
- 84' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 89' Dawid Kownacki has so much to prove this time. He replaces Rafael Borre on 89 minute.
- That’s it! Another goalless match for VfB Stuttgart and SV Werder Bremen (для сухой ничьи).
