The Bundesliga Matchday 19 meeting between VfB Stuttgart and RB Leipzig at the MHPArena was opened up by Enzo Millot in the 25th minute. His goal gave the home side a 1-0 lead and set off a game that would produce seven goals in total. It was the first of three goals scored in the space of eight minutes before half-time.

32' Benjamin Šeško (RB Leipzig) 2-1
Trailing by two, RB Leipzig responded quickly through Benjamin Šeško in the 32nd minute, just two minutes after Undav's goal. The strike cut the deficit to 2-1, and that was how the first half ended, leaving the visitors one goal behind going into the break.

With the margin at one goal after the break, Jamie Leweling restored VfB Stuttgart's two-goal cushion in the 48th minute to make it 3-1. Coming early in the second half, the goal checked Leipzig's momentum and ultimately proved to be the winner.

RB Leipzig pulled within a goal again in the 55th minute when Loïs Openda made it 3-2. Following Šeško's first-half strike, it was the visitors' second of the afternoon and kept alive their hopes of drawing level. The one-goal margin, however, would last only a minute.

Just a minute after Openda's goal, Deniz Undav struck again in the 56th minute, his second of the match, to put VfB Stuttgart 4-2 up. Restoring the two-goal margin immediately after Leipzig had closed the gap, Undav's goal halted the visitors' comeback.
