The full-time whistle sounds at MHPArena as Demirovic’s first-half hat-trick seals a 3-1 win for Stuttgart against Viking FK. The hosts took the lead after Demirovic converted Stiller’s left-wing centre at the near post in the 20th minute, before Tripic levelled the scoreline two minutes later, firing into the bottom-right corner. Stuttgart retook the lead in the 26th minute with Demirovic lifting a finish over Ostbo before the Bosnian scored his third shortly afterwards, with Ostbo making a mess of a save. In a quiet second half, Bjordal saw his strike blocked before Undav struck the upright in second-half stoppage time. The hosts created 17 shots with three on target, reflected by an xG of 1.95, whereas the visitors registered nine shots with three on target, highlighted by an xG of 0.74.
