A largely motionless coach Marco Rose stood on the sidelines as RB Leipzig delivered another disappointing performance in the Bundesliga. The Saxons' offensively dismal 0-0 draw at FC Augsburg, who remained unbeaten for the sixth time in a row, was by no means a recommendation for the next Champions League spot at the start of the 22nd matchday.
VfB Stuttgart could knock Leipzig out of fourth place with a home win against Wolfsburg on Saturday. Rose's team played soccer that had little to do with the Red Bull DNA of pace, energy and pressing.
The visitors were even lucky in the end when Augsburg's Frank Onyeka fired the ball past the Leipzig goal from 13 meters in a central position (82'). And then they were unlucky when substitute Kosta Nedeljkovic headed against the crossbar in stoppage time. FCA earned their 28th point of the season with some decent work.
