Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. VfL Bochum 1848 host RB Leipzig — let the battle begin!
  • 5' Both keepers have barely been tested. VfL Bochum 1848 and RB Leipzig are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.

  • 17' Ivan Ordets needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 3 Red cards this season.
  • 22' RB Leipzig is showing some good football. However, RB Leipzig are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 27' 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 Amadou Haidara suffering a number of foals already.
  • 30' The deadlock is broken! Dani Olmo gets on the scoresheet on 30 minutes.

  • 43' Anthony Losilla has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 45' A meaty challenge results in booking for Amadou Haidara on 45.
  • 50' 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.
  • 55' The home supporters are growing impatient. VfL Bochum 1848 must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 60' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His VfL Bochum 1848 side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 65' RB Leipzig ring the changes. Benjamin Sesko has done his job and it is now time for Lois Openda to step up.
  • 66' That looks like a foul for a card for Noah Loosli.
  • 68' The Belgium forward Lois Openda breaks the deadlock on 68 minutes. 1-2!
  • 71' A stunning finish from Ivan Ordets — that came from absolutely nowhere!
  • 72' Goal! Yussuf Poulsen scores his 72 goal in 528 matches.

  • 78' Another change for RB Leipzig made on 78 minute. Benjamin Henrichs leaves to be changed by Mohamed Simakan.
  • 81' Mohamed Simakan has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 81.
