As the match progressed, Stuttgart struggled to maintain their momentum, allowing Augsburg to gain more possession and create several scoring chances. Just before halftime, Chris Fuehrich nearly doubled Stuttgart’s lead when his shot struck the post, but the score remained 1-0 at the break.

Stuttgart needs to improve if they think this will get them far in the tournament. They were lucky today!

A 1-0 win is hardly convincing. Stuttgart needs to step it up if they want to compete in the semis.

Was it just me, or did the referee miss some clear fouls against Augsburg? Totally unfair!

Why is everyone celebrating a win that came from a blunder? Stuttgart was far from impressive!

Stuttgart got lucky! If Augsburg had been a bit sharper, they would have easily won.
