Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. SC Freiburg kicks off things out of here…
- 5' It looks surprising SC Freiburg does not make any changes. William has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 7' SC Freiburg is taking the lead after the goal scored by Roland Sallai on 7.
- 12' The energy levels are beginning to show. Christian Streich might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 17' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 21' The Germany Nils Petersen breaks the deadlock on 21 minutes. 0-2!
- 26' SC Freiburg receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 26.
- 31' Lukas Kubler has been relatively quiet despite scoring 14 goals in his last 493 appearances.
- 36' Both keepers have barely been tested. VfL Wolfsburg and SC Freiburg are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 41' Gian-Luca Waldschmidt is ready to make an impact after coming on for Roland Sallai at the 41 minute mark.
- 46' VfL Wolfsburg manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Daniel Ginczek is hanging Renato Steffen on the field on 46 minute.
- 50' What a strike from Mike Frantz! The score is 0-3.
- 55' VfL Wolfsburg started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 55.
- 60' The 30-year-old Gian-Luca Waldschmidt has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 61' Admir Mehmedi does the damage! The net is bulging and VfL Wolfsburg surge ahead!
- 66' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. SC Freiburg needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 67' SC Freiburg manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Philipp Lienhart is hanging Mike Frantz on the field on 67 minute.
- 68' Josip Brekalo gets the nod from VfL Wolfsburg. He replaces Yannick Gerhardt and will look to change the dynamic.
- 73' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Christian Gunter suffering a number of foals already.
- 75' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Nicolas Hofler.
- 75' A change in the SC Freiburg ranks — Marco Terrazzino exits the field as Florian Niederlechner enters on 75.

- 1-3 the final result. VfL Wolfsburg will be bitterly disappointed.
