Events

Match Events

  • 0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against VfL Wolfsburg and FC Augsburg has kicked off!
  • 5' 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 Pavao Pervan suffering a number of foals already.
  • 9' Patrick Wimmer puts VfL Wolfsburg on the lead.
  • 14' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 19' Mattias Svanberg has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 1 goals to his name this season.
  • 24' Tiago Tomas, a Portugal , has 30 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 29' The travelling FC Augsburg supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 34' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 39' FC Augsburg have won 387 goals from 433 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 44' FC Augsburg is showing some good football. However, FC Augsburg are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 45' That looks like a foul for a card for Patrick Wimmer.
  • 48' GOAL! Arne Maier scores on 45. Assisted by Ruben Vargas
  • 53' It is a cagey affair so far. VfL Wolfsburg in their 4-2-3-1 trying to find a way past FC Augsburg's compact 4-1-2-1-2.
  • 58' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering FC Augsburg that had 433 games and scored 387 goals.
  • 61' Magnificent from Kristijan Jakic! That is 6 goals in 190 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 64' Fredrik Jensen catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. card on 64.
  • 65' The crowd applauds Fredrik Jensen as he leaves the pitch. Pep Biel steps in for FC Augsburg.

  • 70' A meaty challenge results in booking for Pep Biel on 70.

  • 78' The VfL Wolfsburg bench stirs into life. Ridle Baku is withdrawn and Lovro Majer gets his opportunity.
