Another one! Five star!
Leverkusen catch out Bochum trying to attack and it's no surprise to see the home side punished. Grimaldo wins the ball, Hofmann shifts it to Stanišić and it's back to Grimaldo to tap in to an empty net. He only came on 10 minutes ago!

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.

That would have been special!
Jonathan Tah finds himself up the pitch and tries his luck from range. It's well off target but Alonso still smirks at his defender's surprise effort.

It's 0-4 for 04!
Stanišić does it again late on! It looks like Leverkusen have lost the chance after things go wrong on the right, but B04 quickly shift it to their Croatian wideman and he fires it inside the near-post. That's Leverkusen's 33rd goal after the 86th minute this season!

There it is! 1-0!
It was coming, and unsurprisingly Schick is the man to give Leverkusen the opener. Arthur dinks in a cross and Schick showcases his extraordinary technique flashing in the ball on the volley just before it's about to hit the turf.
