Phwoar!
That's the pick of the bunch right there. Hofmann plays the ball inside to Poku, who cuts inside onto his left foot before unleashing a powerful effort past Vasilj from just outside of the box. What a goal.
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Shot speed

Shot speed describes the maximum speed in km/h that a ball reaches in a shot on goal. The distance is measured from the location of the shot to the centre of the goal.

Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.
77'
And there it is
Pauli decide to initiate the press which causes Leverkusen to pass forward and lose possession. It doesn't amount to anything, but that's better from the visitors.
76'
State of play
Neither side are playing with a particular intensity. Leverkusen continue to dominate possession while Pauli stay in their defensive shape. If they are to find a goal here, they're going to have to push at some point.
73'
Another Leverkusen change
Hjulmand provides fresh legs with the introduction of Hofmann, who replaces Grimaldo.

High and wide!
The ball bounces out to Grimaldo, but the Spaniard, who strikes the ball first time, is unable to get his effort on target.

Almost!
It's almost an immediate impact from Kofane, who drives the ball forward before unleashing a shot, but it's saved by Vasilj.

Double change
Hjulmand makes another change, with Arthur and Kofane replacing Vázquez and goalscorer Schick.

No way through
The game isn't as ferocious as the opening exchanges of the first half. Leverkusen continue to keep hold of the ball, but Pauli are keeping their defensive shape, which is making it difficult for the hosts.

We're back!
St. Pauli get the second half under way, with Leverkusen making a change: Tillman replaces Maza.

Comfortable for Leverkusen
After Pauli pressure, Leverkusen are back in control of the ball. They're playing it around the back, inviting pressure which leads to Irvine conceding a free-kick.

From range
St. Pauli aren't quite out of this tie just yet. They're enjoying an extended spell of possession and are on the front foot. After finding their way down the right blocked, the ball is worked into a central area where Mets takes aim from distance, but it's low and comfortably blocked.

Excellent vision
From deep on the left, García plays a delightful ball towards the far post where it's met by Vázquez, but he strays offside.

First sight of goal
Pauli win an early corner and it leads to a first shot on goal. Leverkusen are only able to clear the ball as far as Saliakas, who slices his effort from outside of the box.
