Die adler took the lead twenty-two minutes into the match as Greek international, Ioannis Amanatidis, pounced on a errant Josué and sent the ball into the back of the net with t he characteristic slow start of Wolfsburg biting them again. Five minutes later the spot was pointed to when Aarón Galindo took Grafite down in the area and he calmly stepped-up and sent the ball to the back of the net. At the fifty-first minute Marcel Schäfer's cross was snapped into goal by Ashkan Dejagah to give Wolfsburg the 2-1 lead. Whilst they were constantly pressuring they couldn't finish and as is so often the case, missed opportunities cost greatly. Six minutes from time Patrick Ochs fed Faton Toski a perfect pass in the area and he cleanly slotted it in. With Wolfsburg continuing the pressure, the winning goal was not to be had.
A tough draw for Wolfsburg who simply did not play a whole ninety minutes. Defensive lapses are costing the club points and they are foregoing a stronger defensive line for the attack. Inexplicably Cristian Zaccardo was left out of the lineup and if goals of Europe are sincere, he must anchor the back-line with Andrea Barzagli
With the international break Wolfsburg is off till September 13 when they face Hertha Berlin.
