Second half highlights:
48th minute: Sosa finds space on the left-hand side and advances towards the Werder net. His effort from distances fizzes past Pavlenka’s goal, narrowly missing the target.
55th minute: Mangala takes aim for the guests but Pavlenka gets down well to stop his effort.
67th minute: Substitute Nick Woltemade is released by Eggestein in the penalty area and has the chance to shoot under pressure, but Kobel gets in the way.
74th minute: Wamangituka beats Toprak after collecting a long ball forwards and dribbles past Friedl. He takes aim but his effort is into the side-netting.
76th minute: Pavlenka is called into action again, this time parrying Förster's left-footed drive away.
90+1 minute: Goal to VfB Stuttgart. Silas Wamangituka profits from a misunderstanding between Toprak and Pavlenka, stealing the ball and jogging towards the net to score in a provocatively casual manner.
90+3 minute: Goal for Werder! Substitute Davie Selke gives Werder hope with a headed goal. With his back to goal, Selke nods Nick Woltemade’s pass into the net.
90+5 minute: Final whistle. Not meant to be. Selke’s goal is too late for the Green-Whites to rescue anything from the game, and Stuttgart take all three points south with them.
