It's a lovely finish from Tietz, who has his second and Augsburg's sixth. On the angle, on his left foot, Tietz fires across goal and into the far corner. There's a brief check for offside but Tietz timed his run perfectly.

Augsburg whip their skipper off with the game well won and his brace playing a significant part in what's been a dominant performance.

Yet more panicked defending from the hosts almost leads to a sixth but neither Demirović nor Tietz can quite get the ball to land for them and Darmstadt survive this time around.

This has been a truly miserable first half an hour for Darmstadt and Demirović has his second to make it 5-0. Again, it's far too easy - Jensen isn't closed down and is allowed to thread the ball through to Demirović, who simply diverts the ball into the back of the net.

Augsburg have a fourth and we've only played 25 minutes. Vargas this time is fed in by Demirović on the left and he lashes home into the roof of the net. It could be double figures at this rate.

Another goal and another mistake in defence. Klaus Gjasula has the ball and looks to be completely in control until panic sets in. A short backpass allows Demirović a free run of goal and he, predictably, converts with ease. This could get nasty for Darmstadt.

This has been a perfect start from Augsburg and they now have a two-goal advantage. Ermedin Demirović sets the ball for Rubén Vargas who, in turn, clips the ball over the top for Fredrik Jensen to run onto and slot beyond Marcel Schuhen.

The visitors are ahead inside two minutes, with Phillip Tietz scoring the first goal of the day against his former club. Jannik Müller must have thought Tietz was still his teammate, hitting the ball across goal to only find Tietz all alone 12 yards out and the goalkeeper to beat.
