- 0' That's the starting whistle at Volkswagen Arena. Ninety minutes of football awaits between VfL Wolfsburg and 1. FC Heidenheim 1846.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Sebastiaan Bornauw made 394 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' Stefan Schimmer is a natural centre-forward and has been asked to do a very specific job for VfL Wolfsburg tonight.
- 15' The 22-year-old Konstantinos Koulierakis has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 16' Against the run of play, Marvin Pieringer has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 21' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 26' VfL Wolfsburg ring the changes. Konstantinos Koulierakis has done his job and it is now time for Denis Vavro to step up.
- 31' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Frank Schmidt will be considering his options from the bench.
- 32' That is a card for 1. FC Heidenheim 1846. Tim Siersleben will be fuming at that decision.
- 37' 1. FC Heidenheim 1846 have won 157 goals from 284 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.

- 52' It’s a booking for VfL Wolfsburg player. Yannick Gerhardt gets a card.
- 57' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
