  • 0' VfL Bochum 1848 have kicked off against VfL Wolfsburg. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
  • 5' VfL Wolfsburg are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 10' Renato Steffen has been relatively quiet despite scoring 21 goals in his last 484 appearances.
  • 15' It looks surprising VfL Wolfsburg does not make any changes. Maximilian Philipp has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 20' VfL Bochum 1848 are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined VfL Wolfsburg backline.
  • 25' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both VfL Bochum 1848 and VfL Wolfsburg are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 33' The referee calls foul for Gian-Luca Waldschmidt. He receives a Yellow card.
  • 38' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 43' Cristian Gamboa needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 19 Yellow cards this season.
  • 48' Elvis Rexhbecaj has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 53' VfL Wolfsburg 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.
  • 58' A quiet spell here at Vonovia Ruhrstadion. VfL Bochum 1848 seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 61' Renato Steffen gets the nod from VfL Wolfsburg. He replaces Maximilian Philipp and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 62' VfL Wolfsburg make a change. Maximilian Philipp trudges off to be replaced by Renato Steffen on 62 minutes.
  • 65' GOAL! Milos Pantovic fires home to make it 1-0!
  • 70' 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 Takuma Asano suffering a number of foals already.
  • 75' Brazil international Danilo Soares has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 78' The VfL Bochum 1848 bench stirs into life. Takuma Asano is withdrawn and Christopher Antwi-Adjei gets his opportunity.
  • 80' Danilo Soares has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 80.
  • 82' It is a substitution in VfL Bochum 1848 team. Milos Pantovic is replaced by Eduard Lowen on 82 minute.
  • 87' Poor challenge from Renato Steffen. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 87' The VfL Bochum 1848 bench stirs into life. Elvis Rexhbecaj is withdrawn and Robert Tesche gets his opportunity.
