For small service it was a very special night, despite the defeat. His reaction to the nomination for the national team was full of emotion: "For me, a dream comes true." He was to be appointed to the team for the injured Niclas Füllkrug and had the opportunity to recommend himself in this game for his possible first international operation. After his connection goal in the 72nd minute, the turn for Gladbach no longer came, so that small service ultimately only went off the field with mixed feelings.

There was also hope for a point win after a header, which was parried by the Augsburg goalkeeper Nediljko Labrovic. However, Tomas Cvancara, who missed the opportunity to achieve the biggest chance of the first half, gained the equalization in the 47th minute.

The Augsburgers were more defensive this season than they managed to reduce the number of goals in the first five games. It was a clear improvement in defense work that paid off in this game. Coach Jess Thorup also changed tactics by relying on two strikers to generate more pressure in the penalty area. This decision paid off with two goals achieved, but the task of constantly strengthening the offensive remains a challenge.
