The match, goal by goal
3 of the 5 goals came after half-time.
2' Christopher Antwi-Adjei (VfL Bochum) 1-0
Barely two minutes into the Bundesliga Matchday 32 meeting at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion, Christopher Antwi-Adjei put VfL Bochum in front. The 1-0 lead gave the home side an early foothold against FC Augsburg. It was the first of five goals on the afternoon.
29' Arne Maier (FC Augsburg) 1-1
FC Augsburg, behind since the second minute, drew level in the 29th through Arne Maier. His goal made it 1-1 and wiped out VfL Bochum's early advantage before half-time. The visitors were back on even terms.
59' Own goal (VfL Bochum) 2-1
With the score still 1-1 in the second half, an own goal in the 59th minute restored VfL Bochum's lead at 2-1. The home side went back in front not through one of their own players but via an Augsburg mistake. Bochum would not surrender that lead for the rest of the match.
62' Anthony Losilla (VfL Bochum) 3-1
Three minutes after the own goal, Anthony Losilla added another in the 62nd minute to stretch VfL Bochum's lead to 3-1. The quick double gave the home side a two-goal cushion. Given that FC Augsburg pulled one back late on, Losilla's strike proved vital to the result.
85' Kelvin Yeboah (FC Augsburg) 3-2
Two goals down, FC Augsburg cut the deficit in the 85th minute when Kelvin Yeboah made it 3-2. The fightback went no further, however, and the equaliser never came. VfL Bochum held on to win 3-2 at home.
