The substitute cuts in nicely off the left flank, beats a man, and lets fly. His effort is dipping, but it's ultimately a comfortable save for Nübel.

No hat-trick for Undav
Tomás slips Undav in behind again, who then tries to chip Dahmen. The goalkeeper holds firm and saves the follow-up as well. Nevertheless, had Undav netted it wouldn't have counted: the assistant referee had their flag raised.
86'
So close to a fourth!
Nartey breaks free down the left flank. He drills a low cross towards the near post, finding Tomás, but the Portuguese can only poke his finish wide under pressure from the onrushing Dahmen.

Undav on the stretch
Once more, Führich slips Undav through in behind the Augsburg backline. There's just too much on it and Undav has to slide to get there, but Dahmen manages to collect before the forward can get to the ball.

Führich leads the charge
Since coming on, the winger has been a livewire. Most recently, he slipped Undav through on goal, whose effort was well blocked by the recovering Giannoulis.

Further changes
Hoeneß seems determined to snatch a late winner here, introducing two attacking-minded players in Nartey and Führich, for Karazor and El Khannouss. Can the substitutes be the ones to win it for the Swabians here?

Dahmen smothers it
A high ball drops for El Khannouss inside the Augsburg box. The youngster hits it low on the volley through a number of Augsburg bodies. Dahmen, however, who had seen it late, manages to pull off a good stop, smothering the ball.

Cut out by Leweling
Rieder does well down the left for Augsburg before drilling a cross towards the far post. It's a dangerous ball, but Leweling was back to intercept for Stuttgart.
69'
Assignon booked
The wide player sees yellow for a foul off the ball on Giannoulis.
68'
Tomás enters the fray
Stuttgart's first change sees Bouanani replaced by Tomás, who will be hoping to add to his Bundesliga tally of three goals in the final 20 or so minutes here.

Zagadou!
The defender picks Claude-Maurice's pocket on the edge of Augsburg's penalty area. He hits a snapshot, but drags his effort wide of the left post. The defender seems determined to score this evening...
60'
Free-kick for Augsburg
Banks is brought down by Karazor about 35 yards from goal. Rieder takes the free-kick, aiming for the top right corner. His effort isn't far away, but it's just over the top of the bar.
59'
Overhit
Karazor wins the ball back off Schlotterbeck with a fair, but physical challenge. He moves it on to Bouanani, who tries to find Assignon with a through pass, but he just puts too much on it and Dahmen comes out to claim it.
56'
Stiller penalised
Stuttgart's No.6 wins the ball back high up the pitch in a good position for his side. However, after attempting to dribble through three defenders, the ball is judged to have ricocheted off his arm Augsburg are awarded a free-kick.
51'
Matsima booked
The defender sees yellow for impeding El Khannouss and preventing a Stuttgart counter-attack.
49'
Roof of the net
Bouanani takes a free-kick from the left half position, around 30 yards from goal. He wrongfoots Dahmen, curling an effort towards the top right corner. It's beautifully hit, but it's just a fraction too high and lands on top of the net.
47'
Early corner
A speculative Zagadou effort from around 40 yards is deflected behind by Massengo for a corner. Stiller takes, finding Mittelstädt unmarked at the far post, who hits a sweet volley. However, Augsburg manage to get a block in and clear the danger.
46'
Back underway!
Augsburg get the ball rolling for the second 45 here in Stuttgart. Neither manager has elected to make any changes at the break.

Just wide from El Khannouss
Undav holds the ball up brilliantly before teeing up El Khannouss on the edge of the box, who strikes the ball first-time. His effort flies just past the right post, hitting the goal's braces behind it. Some fans in the stadium thought that had gone in...

Up from the back

Long ball strategy
Augsburg have utilised long balls over the top to great effect in this first half, as Jeltsch is still struggling to deal with them, as he did for the Fuggerstädter's first.
Undav levels it!

35'
Touch let him down
After a slick passing move for Stuttgart, starring El Khannouss and Undav, captain Karazor had burst up from deep and Undav tees him up on the edge of the box. But the midfielder's touch just carries the ball away from him, allowing Augsburg to mop up and clear the danger.

Straight at Nübel
A flat cross comes in from the left courtesy of Giannoulis, finding the head of Kade, but the Augsburg man can only guide his header straight into the arms of the Stuttgart keeper.

Fingertips from Dahmen!
Assignon squares it the ball from the right to Undav. Under no pressure, the striker picks his spot and curls a great effort towards the bottom right corner, which Dahmen just manages to claw away from his goal. Augsburg can't give a player of Undav's quality that much space on the edge of the box...
23'
Chance for Banks
Rieder curls an inviting ball in from a right-sided corner, which Banks meets at the near post. He connects well with the header, but it's deflected behind for another corner.
21'
Acrobatic from Undav
A cross from the right finds the Stuttgart forward, who improvises brilliantly to volley it goalwards, drawing an excellent reaction save from Dahmen from close range. However, it wouldn't have stood anyway, as Undav had pushed Rexhbecaj in the build-up, and Augsburg are awarded a foul.
Mittelstädt converts!

Dangerous cross from Mittelstädt
A good passing move for Stuttgart culminates in their No.7 whipping in a trademark cross from the left towards the far post. Matsima gets to the header first, though, and clears the danger for Augsburg.
Rieder back to haunt Stuttgart!

Cheeky!
Giannoulis shows a lovely piece of skill to get out of a tight area at the back for Augsburg. The wide player nutmegs Bouanani before winning a foul off the Stuttgart man.
4'
Risky tackle, well executed
Leweling breaks down the left flank and bursts into the Augsburg box. He lays it off to his left, into the path of the overlapping Mittelstädt, but a perfectly-timed tackle from Banks denies the German international a shot. Stuttgart scream for a penalty, but the American defender had got that tackle spot on.
3'
Stiller down
Stuttgart's midfield metronome stays down after hitting the ground hard following an aerial duel with Rexhbecaj. He seems to be in some discomfort, but he's back to his feet now and play has continued.
