Leipzig anger
Xavi has a coming together and is livid to see a yellow card produced for simulation. Rose then gets in the book too for his complaints on the touchline.

Omlo denied
Olmo, who's had a wonderful game, cuts in and curls from a corner, but Pervan tips the ball wide.

Openda! They think it's all over!
The crowd and the bench are on their feet as Openda makes it 3-0 with 22nd goal of the season. It's a similar effort to Olmo as the Belgian brilliantly turns his defender and slots home.
78'
Leipzig should have ended it!
Simakan is able to wander into the Wolfsburg box and his shot is saved. The rebound falls straight to Henrichs who somehow heads wide past an almost open goal.
A good day's work for Sesko

What a miss!
A cross from Henrichs on the left-hand side beats everyone and Sesko is all alone to head it in but steers it just over the bar. His next action is to be subbed off by Marco Rose.
68'
Xavi to Sesko = 2-0!
Wolfsburg give Xavi far too much space and he picks out Sesko who takes a touch and steers in a left footed shot in that could wrap up the three points. A brutal blow for the away side who were just starting to look like they could score.
67'
Wolfsburg increasing in confidence
It's another long-ranger, this time from Gerhardt, and it's not far off as the Wolves start showing some confidence.
63'
What a save!
Svanberg's long-range effort is moving all over the place, and just as it looks like Gulacsi might have dived past it, he tips it over the bar with his fingertips. Wow!

Arnold unleashes
VfL captain Max Arnold fires a long range effort but Gulacsi is equal to it. It could be the kind of hurry up his teammates need, though.
55'
Double change
Hasenhuttl brings on Majer and Svanberg, could this be the impetus for them to get the equaliser?

Wow!
Xavi twists and turns Arnold on the edge of his penalty box and then fires a rabona cross just over the bar.
51'
Chaos in the Wolfsburg box!
Leipzig spring a counter that ends up with Sesko just inside their box on the left. Pervan reads his attempted pass to Olmo well to stop a tap-in, and thankfully no one is there on the follow up.

Xavi's wiped out by Bornauw and the game has to be momentarily stopped despite no foul.

Simakan close!
Simakan caps off a great first half by sending a header from a corner just wide.
44'
Olmo chance!
Dani Almo has a decent chance for a second as he flicks on a Xavi corner, but it's an easy save for Pavao Pervan in the end.

Leipzig rack up the corners

Stoppage
There's a break in play as Cedric Zesiger receives treatment for a coming together in the Wolfsburg box, it looks like he will be OK.

Should have been two!
More Olmo magic sees Sesko found in behind the defender, but his touch goes horribly wrong when he looks destined to take the ball and run through one-on-one.
28'
Schlager booked
Schlager becomes Leipzig's first booking with a late challenge against his old team - he isn't happy about it either.
25'
Feisty!
Fisher is given a yellow for a late challenge and Behrens joins him in the book for an angry protest at the decision.
23'
Openda gets involved
Leipzig's top scorer Lois Openda has his first chance as his side continue to grow into the game. His effort is blocked wide for a corner.

Olmo opens the scoring!
Dani Olmo turns nothing into something, taking a pass inside, turning brilliantly and firing into the corner from range, what a way to start the match!

Gerhardt again
Gerhardt manages his second shot of the game but it's well off target. It may not have stood anyway with him taking Openda down on the touchline moments before.
7'
Šeško gets involved
Leipzig's star man up front, Šeško, manages to get a shot away with his team's first decent spell of possession, but it's just wide.
5'
First chance!
The away side get the first shot on target of the game as their domination sees the ball fall to Yannick Gerhardt on the edge of the box. It's a swing and an easy save for Peter Gulacsi.

Wolfsburg with a bright start
Wolfsburg barely let go of the ball in the opening stages and look confident as they try and find a way into the home team's penalty box.

We're underway!
Wolfsburg get things started in the Leipzig sun at the Red Bull Arena.

Plenty at stake for both teams
Leipzig moved back into the top four last time out, but level on points with Dortmund, every game matters. Wolfsburg, meanwhile, have been dragged into a relegation battle with one win in 12, and things are getting nervy thanks to Mainz's good form.
