The match began with Stuttgart asserting their dominance early on. In the 8th minute, Atakan Karazor broke the deadlock, pouncing on a rebound after Jamie Leweling‘s initial shot was saved. The visitors’ dismay was compounded just four minutes later when Samuel Essende received a straight red card for a reckless challenge on Angelo Stiller, leaving Augsburg with a mountain to climb. In the aftermath, Stiller was unable to continue due to the injury sustained.
