Offside denies miraculous comeback!
The Germany winger gets on the end of a flick-on and finishes nicely. Führich thinks he's made it 3-3, but due to an offside, a VAR check has ruled out the goal! Frankfurt remain in front!

Stoppage time
There is to be five additional minutes at the end of this game. Stuttgart need just one to level the scores!

Now then!
Woltemade scores his first league goal for Stuttgart to make it very interesting as we enter stoppage time. He does well to roll his opposite man and then score past Trapp with a neat finish.

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.

Long-range stunner!
Vagnoman gets Stuttgart on the board! The full-back steps on to the ball outside the box before letting fly with his left foot. It takes a slight deflection off Theate and loops over Trapp and into the back of the net.

Good battle for pace
It's Marmoush vs. Diehl as the Egyptian looks to run through on goal. The young Stuttgart player did well to keep up with the pacey Marmoush, and puts a good shoulder tackle in to nudge the in-form man off the ball.

Hosts denied by monster block
The ball is squared to Jeff Chabot following a corner, and his shot was destined to nestle in the back of the net were it not for a great block from Ansgar Knauff!
72'
Great skills!
Ekitiké cleverly juggles the ball past his opponents near the halfway line. This Frankfurt side are playing with real confidence!
70'
Woodwork again!
Millot's shot comes crashing off the bar and flies away. El Bilal Touré's clever flick set Millot up next to the penalty spot, but the powerful effort was just too high.
68'
Frankfurt come close to a fourth twice!
Nübel first denies Marmoush in a one-on-one scenario. Next, the Germany international gets his body in the way of Brown's cross into the box which could have been dangerous for the hosts.
65'
Millot tests Trapp
The Frenchman's left-footed curling attempt from outside of the box bounces just in front of the Frankfurt 'keeper, but he keeps his eye on the ball and pushes it away.
62'
Marmoush with another free-kick!
He's done it again! Marmoush steps up and hits a fantastic free-kick which sails past Nübel into the top-left corner for Frankfurt's third!

Marmoush fouled again
As is often the case with key players, Marmoush is brought down once again before he can build up a head of steam and wins a free-kick.

Double change for the hosts
In an attempt to turn things around, Hoeneß brings on two sets of fresh legs in Justin Diehl and El Bilal Touré.

Slick move
Frankfurt are really strutting their stuff now. They work it up towards the penalty area nicely before Marmoush attempts a cute chipped pass in behind the Stuttgart defence. The hosts manage to clear it for a corner.

Into the book
Chabot catches Marmoush's heel with his studs, bringing the Egyptian to ground, and the referee cautions the centre-back for his troubles.

Brown doubles up for Frankfurt!
It's 2-0 to the visitors! Praise must go to substitute Knauff here, who drives at the Stuttgart defence before electing to go round the outside before crossing in from the right side of the box. It takes a fortunate deflection of Chabot and sits up perfectly for Brown to tap in for two!

Acrobatics from Rieder
Führich picks out his teammate at the far post, and with the ball slightly behind him, he goes for the spectacular and attempts an overhead kick which sails wide of the target. It would have been some equaliser!

Ice-cold from Frankfurt, who take the lead on the stroke of half-time. Marmoush is the provider, the Egyptian's corner headed home at the near post by Hugo Ekitiké.

The Frankfurt No.1 guesses right - quite literally - to deny Demirović from the spot. What a huge moment that could be.

So close for Stuttgart. Führich opens up the Frankfurt defence and clips a pass to Demirović, who gets in-between two Frankfurt defenders and directs the ball over Trapp but off the crossbar.

Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time
Ball Recovery Time gives the time in seconds in which it takes a team to win back the ball following a loss of possession. It also allows conclusions to be drawn about a team's style of play. Only time when the ball is in play is counted (i.e. no breaks in play such as for goal-kicks, throw-ins etc).

Right idea
Führich comes in off the left after good work by Millot and Demirović, the Germany winger forcing the first save of note from Trapp.

Warning shot
Marmoush is played in over the top by Tuta, but drags his eventual shot wide. The flag was up for offside, in any case.
Kick-off!
