VfB Stuttgart won the first leg of the Bundesliga relegation play-off 48-500 (3-0) against Hamburger SV in front of 1,0 spectators. Serhou Guirassy missed a penalty and scored with a header in the 51st minute to make it 2-0.

Konstantinos Mavropanos headed just past the right (45+1) in injury time to make the score 0:3. The second-fastest goal in relegation history after Maximilian Beister's 25-second goal for Fortuna Düsseldorf in 2012.
