The scenario
TSG Hoffenheim went into the matchday in seventh place, with RB Leipzig one position higher. A point separated the two clubs.
The line-up
André Breitenreiter made two changes to the starting XI, with Kevin Akpoguma replacing the suspended Ozan Kabak and Georginio beginning in place of Sebastian Rudy. Kevin Vogt won his fitness battle and was able to play.
Number of the game: 3
TSG have conceded three goals in a match for the first time since Matchday 1 this season. Too many to get something tangible against RB.
Shock of the game
In an attempt to challenge for the ball, Grischa Prömel was unluckily caught by Christoph Baumgartner. It immediately became clear that the new signing had sustained a foot injury and could not continue. Prömel ultimately had to be carried off the pitch on a stretcher. Get well soon, Grischa!
Moment of the match
TSG are controlling the match and pushing for the equaliser, but Dani Olmo’s bullet strike into the corner in the 69th minute to make it 3-1 puts the game beyond reach.
Turn of the game
Georginio turned past Abdou Diallo in the style of his French compatriot Zinedine Zidane in the lead-up to the goal for 1-1, which he headed home himself. It was his first goal after a run of nine Bundesliga matches without scoring.
Outlook
TSG are already in action again on Wednesday: Hoffenheim are then up against another Champions League last 16 participant when they visit Eintracht Frankfurt.

Kramaric fires just over
Dangerous free-kick for TSG: Kramaric steps up to take the set-piece but fires the ball narrowly over the bar.
Halstenberg just over
A lovely Leipzig move culminates in Halstenberg pulling the trigger from around 15 metres. The ball flies just narrowly over the goal.
Georginio restores parity!
