- 40' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 64' The VfL Wolfsburg bench stirs into life. Admir Mehmedi is withdrawn and Joao Victor gets his opportunity.
- 69' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
