Match Events
- 0' We are underway at MHPArena. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 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 Atakan Karazor suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Borussia Dortmund is showing some good football. However, Borussia Dortmund are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' It looks surprising Borussia Dortmund does not make any changes. Alexander Nubel has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Daniel Svensson made 6 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

- 54' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Borussia Dortmund needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 59' Borussia Dortmund 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.
