Full-time! Gladbach 1-3 Mainz

Mainz strengthen their hold on a top-four place with a well-deserved win in Mönchengladbach. They were clinical at Borussia-Park and, for now at least, sit third in the table. What a story!

Super save!

Zentner shows why he's being linked with a Germany call-up with a quite brilliant save to keep out Kleindienst's point-blank header.
77'

What a strike!

Clinical from Mainz. Just when Gladbach were getting a grip on the game, Amiri exchanges passes with Lee and sinks an unstoppable effort past Omlin from 18 yards.

Well, well. Kleindienst can't get on the end of Hack's cross, but does enough to put off Zentner. Lainer then sweeps in the loose ball to give Gladbach a lifeline.

Half-time: Gladbach 0-1 Mainz

Mainz lead at the break through Nebel's deflected strike. It's harsh on Gladbach, who were the more active side until the goal, albeit only testing Zentner the once.

Sir Paul

That's Nebel's seventh Bundesliga goal of the season. The former Karlsruhe midfielder has also produced four assists.

Mainz strike first!

And Burkardt's the instigator. He looks up and feeds Lee, who helps it into the feet of Nebel in the Gladbach area. His shot takes a wicked deflection off Ullrich, leaving Omlin with no chance. It's against the run of play, but Henriksen won't care a jot.

Kleindienst turns provider this time with an inside pass to Stöger, who drags a shot wide on his weaker right foot. He's kicking himself he didn't switch it onto his preferred side. He had the time!

Crossbar!

Gladbach are so close to taking a fortuitous lead as Zentner fumbles a Kleindienst header, but the ball comes back off the woodwork. That was so uncharacteristic of the Mainz stopper, who's been in sensational form this season.

At last!

Amiri feeds Nebel for a long-range effort that's well held by Omlin in the Gladbach goal. Perhaps that'll encourage the teams to take more risks in the final third...
