Süle!
So close from the Dortmund defender, who sees a goal-bound shot deflected agonisingly wide.

Füllkrug pulls one back!
The Dortmund striker heads in a Brandt corner. Three minutes for the Black-Yellows to find an equaliser...
Goal probability 
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Leipzig seal it!
That's it! Sesko wins back the ball in his own half to kick-start a three-on-two attack. He shifts it to his left for Forsberg, who slides a pass back across the area for Poulsen. The Dane sells Schlotterbeck a dummy and drives beyond Kobel. Great finish!

Chance not taken
Malen gets himself into a good position on the left-hand side of the Leipzig box, but opts to shoot rather than pass to a man in the middle and blazes over.
87'
Dortmund in possession
BVB are ending the game strongly. Can they turn their possession into a late leveller?
85'
Kobel again!
Dortmund's No1. keeps his side in the game with another big save, this one with his left foot from Sesko.

Changes
Former BVB midfielder Kampl replaces the industrious Haidara for Leipzig, before BVB hook two full-backs in favour of attacking duo Reyna and Malen.

Close!
Brandt whips in a free-kick from the left that's touched just wide of the near post by Sesko's outstretched leg. Set-pieces might be BVB's best route back...

Half chance!
Poulsen crosses for Sesko, who can only head straight at Kobel.
77'
Crucial intervention!
Poulsen sends Sesko on his way. He manages to get the ball out from under his feet, but Özcan slides in to block the eventual shot. That could have been curtains for the hosts.
76'
Triple change
Two centre-forwards in Poulsen and Sesko, as well as attacking midfielder Forsberg. Can Leipzig put this one to bed?

Adeyemi takes on Simakan, going to ground on his way into the penalty box, but the referee waves the BVB sub to his feet.

Kobel to the rescue!
Kobel drops to his left to parry a shot from Raum. Baumgartner's rebound then hits the post and goalkeeper before being cleared.
71'
BVB switch
Adeyemi replaces Reus for Dortmund, who desperately need a spark in attack. He's certainly got the pace to trouble this Leipzig defence...

Denied!
Süle is at full stretch to stop Raum's pass finding the unmarked Openda in the BVB penalty area.

Openda into the book
It's all turned a bit scrappy as Openda gets a ticking off for pulling back Meunier.

Leipzig retake the lead!
Leipzig's numerical advantage tells! Baumgartner bursts forward, laying the ball off for Xavi and continuing his run. The Leipzig playmaker cuts inside of Süle and forces a diving save from Kobel, who can only parry into the path of Baumgartner for a routine tap-in.

Openda wriggles free and arrows in a snap shot that Kobel does well to hold onto.

Dortmund equalise!
BVB's late surge pays! Blaswich punches the initial corner out to the edge of the box, where it's switched back out to Brandt. His cross evades everyone in the box, before being met by Süle's right-footed finish at the far post.

Chance!
Dortmund break at speed with Can. Füllkrug slips a pass into the box for Meunier, whose fierce near-post strike is beaten clear by Blaswich. BVB recycle position, with Blaswich tipping Özcan's flicked header behind for a corner.

Added time
Into the first of five additional minutes. Big team talk coming up from Terzić...

Özcan OK
Özcan is back on after colliding with Schlager. For a moment there, Dortmund were defending with eight outfield players. Disaster averted.
43'
Offside!
Openda is played through by a flicked pass on halfway. He's clearly offside, though the flag only goes up after Kobel gets down to his left to push the Leipzig forward's effort round his post.
42'
Set-piece threat
Another Raum corner from the right comes in. It's flicked on at the near post, before BVB smuggle clear.

Leipzig lead!
There it is! Raum swings over a corner that Bensebaini, unsighted by two Leipzig players in front of him, heads past Kobel. Horrible goal for the 10 men of BVB to concede.

Raum's cross is deflected towards Henrichs at the back post, but he balloons over. The Leipzig wing-back is kicking himself!

Last-ditch defending
Reus races back to stop Xavi doing more damage in the box after a jinking run to the by-line. It's been one-way traffic since Hummels was sent off.

Haidara!
Haidara has a crack this time, with Kobel pushing the ball over the bar. The resultant corner's played short to Schlager, who misfires from range.

There's the change
Süle takes up the central defensive position vacated by Hummels. Bynoe-Gittens, whose pace in the transition is such a boon for Dortmund, gets the hook. Needs must.

Xavi's free-kick hits the wall, amidst shouts for a handball. Henrichs then has a shot blocked. Süle is warming up for Dortmund, who will almost certainly sacrifice a forward...

Hummels sent off!
Openda is played through, before going to ground under Hummels' desperate challenge. The referee initially points to the spot, but a review shows the challenge was outside the box. However, the card is upgraded and BVB are down to 10 men!

Goals guaranteed
Leipzig have only failed to score in one of their 13 league games this season. Dortmund have scored in all theirs. None of the pair's 16 competitive meetings have ended goalless.
