On a day when RB Leipzig faced Borussia Monchengladbach at the Red Bull Arena in a Bundesliga match, the game started rather tentatively.

Raum got a yellow card. A minute later, Borussia Monchengladbach was awarded a penalty, but A. Plea's shot missed the target, much to the disappointment of their fans. The missed penalty became the catalyst for the home side's attack and T. Werner scored for RB Leipzig in the 57th minute.
The goal helped relieve the home team's tension and allowed them to continue the game and dominate it. On 71 minutes RB Leipzig got a penalty kick which was confidently converted by E. Forsberg. The victory was sealed by the young J. Guardiola on 80 minutes, it was his first goal for the club.
