Provides assist in draw
Waldschmidt assisted once to go with five crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Union Berlin.
Analysis: Waldschmidt stood out in playmaking duties, completing the last pass before Marius Bulter's 33rd-minute goal while taking half of his side's set pieces during the round 32 matchup. Even though he was unable to score this time, the forward continued his productive run as he registered a goal or assist for the third time in a row. After a series of five substitute appearances, he got the nod over both Linton Maina and Jan Thielmann on the right wing.
Scores one goal off bench
Waldschmidt scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Bayer Leverkusen.
Analysis: Waldschmidt came off the bench in the second half of Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Leverkusen and immediately made his mark, slotting home a composed left-footed finish past Janis Blaswich after Said El Mala's determined dribble and precise pull-back created the opening in the box. Waldschmidt has now scored in back-to-back Bundesliga appearances as a substitute, with his five goals this season placing him quatrieme in his side's scoring charts despite rarely starting.
