The women of VfL Wolfsburg avoided a mistake at the guest appearance in Cologne shortly before the end. The team may have to pay for the victory.

Thanks to a last-minute goal, VfL Wolfsburg’s women in the Bundesliga table are equated with FC Bayern. The “wolf” won 2-1 (1: 1) on Sunday evening at 1. FC Köln. Camilla Klüver got the decision in the sixth minute of stoppage time. Previously, striker Lineth Beerensteyn had equalized (45th minute). Outsider Cologne had taken the lead through Carlotta Imping (38th).

Attacker Alexandra Popp is worried. The long -time captain of the German national team had to be replaced due to injury shortly before the end. She had bounced with ex-DFB colleague Marina Hegering. Popps right ankle was tied. She limp into the cabin. Team supervisors supported the 34-year-old. How difficult it really caught it is still unclear.

VfL now has seven points in the account, as well as Bayern, who surprisingly did not get out of 0: 0 against Jena on Saturday in front of a home crowd against Jena. The leader is the SC Freiburg. The Breisgau women also scored seven points and won 6-2 against the promoted HSV on Friday.

Werder Bremen is also seven points after the not necessarily expected 2-1 win on Sunday afternoon via TSG Hoffenheim. Larissa Mühlhaus scored 1-0 for the Hanseates by penalty. In the 90th minute, substitute Emoke Papai Werder had again cheered. DFB striker Selina Cerci had in the meantime the equalization (64th), her fifth goal of the season. Shortly afterwards she failed on the latte (68th).
