Wolfsburg goes under in Augsburg! The Lower Saxony collect a 0:3 swatter and are already behind after 50 seconds.
1st minute: Pedersen hits the left-back with a fantastic heel for left-back Iago (25). The Brazilian hits the ball perfectly with his weak right foot on the left corner of the penalty area and shoots into the far corner, which VfL goalkeeper Pervan cannot defend. 1:0!
There is only one thing above all from the Wolfsburg team over the 90 minutes: Zoff!
Significant: After 23 minutes, national player Lukas Nmecha (23) has the first big chance for the guests, but does not play to Max Kruse (34), who is ready next to him to finish.
After Augsburg keeper Gikiewicz defused the shot with a brilliant save, Kruse Nmecha immediately attacked. And shortly before half-time, Kruse is the focus again!
The ex-Unioner is suddenly neck and neck with Pedersen after the Dane tried to swallow a penalty, according to Kruse.
Apart from disputes, Wolfsburg can hardly offer anything else. At the Lower Saxony, assistant coach Vincent Heilmann (25) is on the line because Florian Kohfeldt (39) could not have himself tested in time after his Covid illness.
Heilmann, who is the second youngest coach in the history of the Bundesliga with his commitment, has to watch how his squad can be shot down.
And that, although Augsburg with Gregoritsch, Hahn (both Corona) and Vargas (tonsillitis) are missing three regulars for the offensive.
First Florian Niederlechner (31) scores with his nose after a corner to make it 2-0 (62nd), before Mads Pedersen (25) makes it 3-0 with a bang under the bar just seven minutes later.
