A hugely important away win for Die Roten Bullen in Gladbach, as Ralph Hasenhüttl’s men snatch a late goal to beat Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-0. New signing Ademola Lookmam came off the bench in the 88th minute, before grabbing the winning goal ten minutes later.

There were just two clear-cut chances in the first half, as both teams cancelled each other out with a disciplined defensive display. The game opened up in the second half, with more chances at both end. In the end, it was Lookman who broke the deadlock with a fine goal in the 89th minute.
