Tooor for RB Leipzig, 0:2 by Benjamin Šeško
Bitter for the SVWW! The home side actually defend well and don’t allow much, but again they invite RB with an individual mistake. Fabio Carvalho’s chip ball into the box is not dangerous in itself and lands at Mathisen, who doesn’t clear it but instead crosses it perfectly for Šeško. The Slovenian nets a dry shot into the left corner from nine meters. Stritzel has no chance.

RB has won six of the first seven competitive games, already clinched its first title of the season with the Supercup and also got off to a successful start in the premier class.
