Ermedin Demirovic scored twice, but Borussia Mönchengladbach left the MHPArena with a 3-2 win over Stuttgart on Bundesliga Matchday 7.
The sporting fact
Stuttgart struck in the fifth minute. Dzenan Pejcinovic headed the ball into Demirovic’s path, and the forward finished from outside the box.
Gladbach levelled on 38 minutes. Zento Uno’s initial effort was blocked, before Joe Scally converted from the middle of the area. The visitors then took control after the interval.
Shuto Machino put Gladbach ahead in the 51st minute, curling a left-footed finish into the top corner after Wael Mohya supplied the pass. Mohya added the third 15 minutes later, heading in from close range following Scally’s delivery.
Mohya and Scally both later went off injured. Robin Hack replaced Mohya, while Yukhym Konoplia came on for Scally. David Herold, Mathieu Nguefack and Lion Schweers were also introduced for Gladbach.
Stuttgart made a triple change on 55 minutes, sending on Deniz Undav, Jamie Leweling and Bilal El Khannouss. Grischa Prömel followed for Atakan Karazor, and Jeff Chabot replaced Finn Jeltsch late on.
