Kobel to the rescue
Diomande, who has been very lively since coming on, sends a teasing ball across the face of Kobel's goal. Schlotterbeck clears the danger, but Leipzig quickly win back possession and Baumgartner forces Kobel into a magnificent stop with a looping shot from the edge of the area. Leipzig are applying heavy pressure as we enter the final ten minutes.
78'
Ambitious
Rômelu is on his own on the edge of the Dortmund box and decides to try to lob Kobel, but he doesn't strike the ball cleanly and it's an easy save for the Borussia custodian.
76'
Just wide!
Leipzig work the ball well on the edge of the Dortmund area and Raum eventually picks out Baumgartner, who curls a sweetly struck shot just wide of the far post. Kobel could only watch on helplessly.
74'
Sabitzer goes down
Raum brings down the Dortmund midfielder near the halfway line, allowing his team to re-orginise their defensive shape.

Kovač shuffles his pack
Not a bad duo to bring on. Can they make the difference here?

Bakayoko goes close
The Leipzig forward channels his inner Arjen Robben, cutting inside from the right before letting fly with his left foot - but the ball trickles wide of Kobel's left-hand post.

Ouédraogo fires wide
More Leipzig pressure as Kobel is forced to parry Nusa's cross-shot into the path of Ouédraogo, who drags his effort wide. Moments later, Rômelu beats the BVB offside trap but takes a heavy touch, allowing Schlotterbeck to clear the ball behind for a corner, which comes to nothing.

Anton blazes over
Schlotterbeck's free-kick is cleared only as far as Couto on the edge of the box. The wing-back's effort is also cleared, with Anton beating his marker to the loose ball but firing his shot high over the crossbar.
40'
Too much on it
Adeyemi chases after a long ball over the top of the Leipzig rearguard but it rolls behind for a goal-kick before the Dortmund forward can reach it.
37'
Break in play
Ouédraogo and Bensebaini need a spot of treatment after colliding with each other. Both players are back on their feet.

Neck and neck
Little to choose between the two sides as we head into the latter stages of the first half. Leipzig have caused more problems in the final third, with Raum particularly lively, but Dortmund are defending well.
