Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: VfL Wolfsburg gets underway.
- 3' Jonas Wind adds to his 1 season tally! VfL Wolfsburg lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
- 8' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 13' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 18' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. VfL Wolfsburg needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 23' VfL Wolfsburg are deployed in a 4-4-2 today, looking to exploit space against Borussia Monchengladbach's 4-2-3-1 shape.
- 28' Japan international Ko Itakura has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
- 33' Konstantinos Koulierakis is a natural defender and has been asked to do a very specific job for Borussia Monchengladbach tonight.
- 38' 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.
- 41' VfL Wolfsburg receives a card for a hard tackle on 41.
- 45' Patrick Wimmer has so much to prove this time. He replaces Jakub Kaminski on 45 minute.
- 50' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both VfL Wolfsburg and Borussia Monchengladbach are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 55' The 28-year-old Moritz Nicolas has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 60' GOAL! Joakim Maehle fires home to make it 2-0!
- 65' 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 Grant-Leon Ranos suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' A change in the Borussia Monchengladbach ranks — Robin Hack exits the field as Shio Fukuda enters on 70.
- 73' Another substitution for VfL Wolfsburg to replace Jonas Wind by Lukas Nmecha on 73 minute.
- 75' The Germany Maximilian Arnold breaks the deadlock on 75 minutes. 3-0!
- 80' VfL Wolfsburg make a change. Konstantinos Koulierakis trudges off to be replaced by Sebastiaan Bornauw on 80 minutes.
- 81' Borussia Monchengladbach ring the changes. Joseph Scally has done his job and it is now time for Stefan Lainer to step up.
- 84' Magnificent from Lukas Nmecha! That is 37 goals in 386 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
- 87' Lukas Nmecha has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 87 minutes.
- 89' Shio Fukuda has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 89 minutes.
- The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Borussia Monchengladbach.
