VfL Wolfsburg's 2-1 victory over Mainz 05 was a much-needed boost for the struggling Bundesliga side as they looked to avoid relegation. The match saw VfL Wolfsburg take the lead through Enner Valencia in the first half before Mainz levelled up in the second period. The match was played at the Volkswagen Arena, where VfL Wolfsburg have struggled this season. However, the team managed to put together a strong performance, with their defense holding firm and their attack finding the back of the net twice. Enner Valencia was the star of the show, scoring both goals for VfL Wolfsburg. His first goal came early in the first half, when he capitalized on a mistake by Mainz goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen to score his first goal for the club since joining in January. He then assisted on the second goal, which was scored by fellow forward Kevin Volland. Despite the impressive display from Valencia, VfL Wolfsburg will be relieved that they were able to secure a point against a side that is currently battling for survival in the league. With just three games remaining in the season, it remains to be seen whether or not VfL Wolfsburg can secure their place in the top flight next season. |
