Fortuna Düsseldorf beat VfB Stuttgart II 1-0 in the 3. Liga. The only goal came in the 59th minute, with Andreas Müller finishing from Yassine Bouchama's pass.
The first half was goalless and tightly contested, punctuated by early bookings. Müller, who had been shown a yellow card at 52 minutes, scored the decisive goal seven minutes later. Stuttgart II pushed afterwards but could not find an equaliser.
Two goalscorers were involved in the winner, but Müller's strike was the difference. Seven yellow cards were handed out across the match, yet neither side lost a player. The single goal proved enough for Düsseldorf.
