Full-time: Düsseldorf 3-4 Kaiserslautern
That's it! Klaus's late goal is little more than a consolation. It was a wild match in Düsseldorf, fitting for such a high-scoring matchday (38 goals in six matches so far), with the lead changing three times as seven goals were scored. Kaiserslautern's win wasn't one-way traffic (14:12 shots on goal for the hosts), but the visitors played cleverly and showed great stamina (covering almost two kilometres more than Fortuna).

Poor finish
Vermeij has plenty of space on the right in front of the goal, but his attempt only hits the side netting.
88'
In vain
Rossmann crosses from the left, but Krahl manages to pluck the ball out of the air. The match looks to be decided.

The ball doesn't get through
The passes to the front are not reaching their targets anymore. FCK can defend without much effort and keep creating dangerous counterattacks.
81'
More substitutions
Markus Anfang also makes another change, with Robinson and Ritter coming on to help secure back-to-back league wins for the first time this season.

Hanslik gives Lautern daylight!
Another goal, what's going on here? A corner from the left finds Hanslik in the centre, who had just freed himself up and heads it into the net on the left.
61'
Lautern take the lead!
Unbelievable, the match has turned again! Haag loses possession in his own half, then Ache gets the ball and takes a shot from distance. Kastenmeier is slightly off his line and looks very unfortunate in his attempt to save it.
60'
Ice-cold
Düsseldorf converted their first shot on goal after the break to make it 2-1, and now Kaiserslautern have also scored with their first attempt of the second half.
58'
YOKOTA!
What a move by the Japanese player! A quickly executed counter-attack finds its way to Yokota on the right, who cuts inside with quick steps and beautifully finds the top left corner.
55'
Widespread threat
Düsseldorf's 16 goals so far are spread across 11 different players. The league leaders don't have one standout goalscorer, but rather various players who can find the back of the net.
50'
Game turned around!
Van Brederode cuts inside from the left in the penalty area and then places a delicate shot into the far corner.

Easy for Krahl
Sirch defends strongly to give away a corner which lands in the left back area with Oberdorf, but his tame shot ends up in the arms of Krahl.
44'
Miscontrolled
Vermeij delivers the ball delicately from the left to the near post, but Niemiec miscontrolls it.
42'
Not quite
In a counter-attacking situation, Jóhannesson looks for Niemiec, who has made a run on the right, but due to the inaccurate pass, Kaiserslautern is able to defuse the situation.

Düsseldorf can't break through
Kaiserslautern have completely shut down the middle of the pitch so far, causing Fortuna to heavily favour the left side, but they're hardly creating any chances in the penalty area.

Will Düsseldorf stumble too?
On this matchday, KSC and HSV, who had entered the round in second and third place, have already lost. Will the league leaders now stumble as well? The league is already extremely tight and exciting.

Unlucky
Niemiec is sent down the right, has a speed advantage over Kleinhansl, but then slips.

Niemiec again
This time the winger tries from the right side from outside the box, but the ball sails over the top left corner.

Wasted chance
Rossmann brilliantly powers through on the left flank, drives to the byline and lays it back to Niemiec, whose high shot doesn't trouble Krahl.
19'
Behind early again
As in the last home match against HSV, Düsseldorf have conceded early. Hamburg scored after eight minutes, Kaiserslautern today after 14 minutes.
18'
Not far off
At the other end of the pitch, Iyoha takes has a go from range - but it's just wide of the right post.
Goooal for Kaiserslautern!

Lautern pushes out

Thioune's view on the game
"We're delighted to be playing tomorrow evening. I believe we've earned it a bit - although in this balanced division, every match would deserve these conditions. I have great respect for Lautern and the way they play football. We want to measure ourselves against that. It's cool to be currently top of the table - and we want to continue defending that position."
Anfang's view on the game
"Düsseldorf can do many things well and play in different styles. But we have also shown that we can create our chances both with a lot of possession and from counter-attacking situations."
