Review of the match Mainz - Borussia M:
On a wet and windy night at the MEWA ARENA stadium in the Bundesliga, the home team, FSV Mainz 05, beat Borussia Monchengladbach 4-0 without much tension. Lee Jae Sun made it 1-0 in the 25th minute and his compatriot M. Ingwartsen doubled the lead in the 49th minute. L.

Nguma in the 81st minute after receiving a yellow card, and FSV Mainz 05 made their first changes in the 57th minute, replacing A. Hanche-Olsen with A. Hack. Further changes came in the 74th minute with Lee Jae-Sun and A. Barkok swapping places, in the 85th with A. Kaci and A. Martin, and N.
