Change of goalkeeper In the second third

Matushkin scolds: “Total embarrassment”
“This is unacceptable,” said Löwen captain Maksim Matushkin in an interview with Magenta Sport and spoke of a “total embarrassment” and a “terrible performance”.
After all: In the last third, Matthew Wedman managed the honor goal for the meantime 1: 8. But since Wolfsburg also met again, the historical result of 1: 9 was on the scoreboard.
