4' Eren Dinkçi (SV Werder Bremen) 1-0

Twelve minutes after Füllkrug's goal, Marco Grüll added a third for SV Werder Bremen in the 80th minute. The 3-0 scoreline made Grüll the hosts' third different scorer of the afternoon. With ten minutes of regulation left, the margin left RB Leipzig with little room to respond.

Trailing 3-0, RB Leipzig finally got on the scoresheet in the 95th minute through Ridle Baku, deep into stoppage time (90+5). The goal set the final score at 3-1. It came too late to affect the result, but it spared Leipzig a scoreless afternoon at the Weser-Stadion.
