Augsburg threaten on the break
As Mainz push forward in search of the opener, suddenly Augsburg have a good moment on the transition - Mert Kömür takes it forward on the right and has the option of switching it across to Samuel Essende in a good position. Instead he cracks in a shot, which forces a strong save from Zentner.
