Drama in the championship race: VfL Wolfsburg loses when outnumbered!

An exciting Bundesliga duel took place on November 8, 2025, when VfL Wolfsburg had to face Eintracht Frankfurt. But despite a large number of chances and a majority from the 37th minute onwards, Wolfsburg suffered a narrow 2-3 defeat. The Frankfurt team, led by their goal scorers Nicole Anyomi and Laura Freigang, were able to secure the points and thus consolidate their place in the top third of the table.

The encounter started promisingly for the hosts from Wolfsburg. Kessya Bussy gave her team the lead in the 7th minute after converting a precise pass from Janou Levels. But the joy didn't last long. Anyomi equalized in the 26th minute and just two minutes later Freigang gave Eintracht the lead. A double blow that left the Wolfsburg team reeling. Goalkeeper Stina Johannes also faced another debacle in the 28th minute when Freigang capitalized on a defensive error.

A game with highs and lows

Wolfsburg didn't start the game badly in the first half, but Frankfurt's defense stood firm. In the second half, Wolfsburg pushed even harder for the equalizer, but there was a lack of clear chances. Another setback occurred when Janina Minge missed a penalty, which was parried by Frankfurt goalkeeper Altenburg. In the 85th minute, Blomqvist put the final point for Frankfurt when she made it 3-1, which practically sealed the deal for Wolfsburg. Alexandra Popp was able to reduce the score to 2:3 in the 89th minute, but that wasn't enough to turn the tide. Wolfsburg is now six points behind league leaders FC Bayern Munich, who won their game against Union Berlin 4-0.

When analyzing the game, Wolfsburg coach Tommy Stroot could also see the defensive mistakes as a key to this defeat. Nevertheless, the team made some good attempts to collect points again in the coming games. Getting back on the winning track will therefore be a top priority for the next games.

Outlook for the upcoming games

The next games will show whether Wolfsburg can make up the current deficit, while Eintracht Frankfurt, in third place, remains in the race for the top places.
