VfB Stuttgart – Augsburg
Date: 29th October 2022, 3:30 pm
Result: 2 – 1
This was a well deserved win for VfB Stuttgart, affectionately called "unsere
Jungs" ("our boys"). Augsburg scored the first goal after four minutes, enough
to demoralise Stuttgart, but the game was turned around with an equaliser in
the 15th minute. From then on, Stuttgart had the initiative and was clearly
the better team. Throughout the second half Stuttgart had chance after chance,
but the ball just wouldn't go into the net. The winning goal was finally scored in the 92nd minute.
This is a good result, but it's not enough in itself. Stuttgart is still in
the relegation zone, nicknamed the premiere league's cellar. The next match
against Mönchengladbach on Friday has to be won to get the team out of danger.
I'm going to be on holiday all November, so I shan't be able to watch
VfB Stuttgart's matches. I'll restrict myself to my mini-posts about
their matches for the rest of the year. If Stuttgart has pulled itself
out of the cellar by January, I'll go back to writing full match reports.
