• Last season’s fourth best goal scorer of the Bundesliga, Christopher Nkunkoo, put the guests in the lead in the eighth minute. The Frenchman was the first to get the ball in the free zone in the penalty area and hit it from close range without mistake – 1:0.
• The home team managed to equalize in the second half of the half. A quick match between Nairoo Ahamada and Saša Kalajdžić allowed the Frenchman to score from the edge of the penalty area – 1:1.
• In the second half, Stuttgart’s players controlled the ball more (64% against 36%), but “Leipzig” attacked much more, hitting the goal 18 times. Six shots in the second half were saved by the first number of “Stuttgart” Florian Müller.
• “Leipzig” will play the second game of the season next Saturday, when they host the Cologne team, while “Stuttgart” will play a match in Bremen against the local “Werder” on Saturday.
