Match Recap

Deniz Undav waited until the ninetieth minute to decide this DFB Pokal tie, breaking a stubborn SC Paderborn 07 rearguard with a winner that left the hosts with nothing to show for their effort. VfB Stuttgart had to dig for it, but Undav's late strike settled a 1-0 scoreline that felt tighter than the gap in quality suggested. It's familiar territory for Paderborn against this opponent: their only previous meeting also ended in defeat, and now the head-to-head reads a clean sweep for Stuttgart. There's no shortage of firepower elsewhere in the competition either, with Harry Kane still the league's most lethal finisher on 7 goals, though Undav's moment mattered more for how it arrived than where it ranks. Paderborn pushed, probed, and came up empty until the very end, when Stuttgart made them pay. Watch how Undav finds the space in the 90th minute to send Paderborn out of the cup.
