Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Borussia Mönchengladbach 0-0 RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Friday, 28 November 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
The match between Borussia Mönchengladbach and RB Leipzig started evenly, with both sides probing for openings in the first half, though Leipzig edged possession at 58% overall. A yellow card to Christoph Baumgartner in the 45th minute disrupted Leipzig’s rhythm slightly heading into the break, but no goals materialised as defences held firm. The second half saw further bookings for Leipzig’s Ridle Baku in the 52nd minute and Xaver Schlager in the 61st, potentially limiting their aggression.
Leipzig made double substitutions in the 66th minute, with E. Banzuzi replacing X. Schlager and J. Bakayoko coming on for A. Nusa, aiming to inject fresh energy. Borussia Mönchengladbach responded with changes at 73’, as G. Reyna replaced F. Neuhaus and S. Machino came on for H. Tabakovic, leading to a cancelled penalty for Machino in the 76th minute. Further substitutions followed, including M. Friedrich for J. Castrop at 83’ for Gladbach and T. Gomis for C. Harder at 82’ for Leipzig, but the game ended goalless despite late efforts, with T. Kleindienst replacing F. Honorat at 90’ and L. Klostermann coming on for R. Baku in stoppage time.
Possession favoured RB Leipzig at 58% compared to Borussia Mönchengladbach’s 42%, allowing the visitors more control in building attacks, though this did not translate into goals. Corners were closely contested at 5-6 in Leipzig’s favour, while successful dribbles stood at 38 for Gladbach and 45 for Leipzig, highlighting the latter’s slight edge in individual flair that kept pressure on the home defence. Leipzig accumulated three yellow cards—to Baumgartner, Baku, and Schlager—potentially curbing their intensity, with no cards for Gladbach, and both teams used four substitutions each, including Gladbach’s double change at 73’ where Reyna replaced Neuhaus and Machino came on for Tabakovic, though no assists or penalties were recorded to shift the stalemate.
These stats underline a balanced encounter where Leipzig’s possession dominance was neutralised by Gladbach’s disciplined approach, as the lack of injury-time goals or scored penalties ensured the draw. The substitutions, such as Leipzig’s 66’ switches with Banzuzi for Schlager and Bakayoko for Nusa, aimed to exploit tired legs but failed to break the deadlock, reflecting how tactical adjustments influenced momentum without decisive impact.
The game’s potential turning point came in the 76th minute when Borussia Mönchengladbach’s Shuto Machino had a penalty cancelled, denying the hosts a clear chance to take the lead after his substitution three minutes earlier. RB Leipzig’s discipline issues were evident with yellow cards to Baumgartner just before half-time, followed by Baku and Schlager in the second half, which may have forced a more cautious approach from the visitors. Impact substitutions included Gladbach’s 73’ changes bringing on Reyna for Neuhaus and Machino for Tabakovic, while Leipzig introduced Banzuzi for Schlager and Bakayoko for Nusa at 66’, though these failed to produce a breakthrough.
Later adjustments, such as Friedrich replacing Castrop at 83’ for Gladbach and Gomis coming on for Harder at 82’ for Leipzig, added fresh legs in the closing stages, but the match remained goalless. The cancelled penalty stood out as the closest either side came to scoring, underscoring how fine margins and refereeing decisions shaped this tight affair.
Borussia Mönchengladbach lined up in a 4-4-2 formation, focusing on a solid defensive base while relying on midfield partnerships to transition quickly into attack. Key roles saw the backline providing stability, with forward pairings aiming to exploit spaces, though substitutions like Reyna coming on for Neuhaus and Machino for Tabakovic adjusted the dynamics in the second half.
RB Leipzig deployed a 4-3-3 shape, emphasising width and midfield control to dominate possession and create chances through the flanks. Standout partnerships in the midfield trio helped maintain pressure, with later changes such as Banzuzi replacing Schlager and Bakayoko coming on for Nusa enhancing their attacking options.
Machino was the game’s most decisive individual, immediately injecting energy and forcing the single biggest moment of the match with the cancelled penalty incident. In a contest lacking standout attacking contributions, his impact was the closest either team came to winning it.
