BL first play-offs: Wolfsburg stumbles on Paderborn

As part of the first play-off for accession to the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg, 16th in the last German Championship, hosted Paderborn, who snatched third place in 2.Bundesliga on the final day thanks to a success against Darmstadt (2-0) and Hanover’s misstep against Nuremberg (3-3).

Yes, but this Thursday evening, the suspense remains. Despite a clear domination (63% possession and 15 shots in total), the Wolves will, in fact, have to seek their survival next Monday on the lawn of the second division club since neither of the two teams managed to decide between them.
