Wolfsburg End 12-Game Drought to Stun Union Berlin
Wolfsburg won 2-1 at the Alte Försterei on Saturday, spoiling the historic Bundesliga debut of Union Berlin's interim boss Marie-Louise Eta, the first woman to manage a men's side in one of Europe's top-five leagues.
Patrick Wimmer fired in a clinical long-range opener in the 11th minute, and Dzenan Pejcinovic doubled the lead just after the break (46') with a similarly composed strike. Union dominated the game statistically, 24 shots to five, but their profligacy proved costly. Oliver Burke pulled one back in the 86th minute, but the comeback never materialised.
The win ended a 12-match winless run for Wolfsburg, lifting them within two points of relegation safety. For Union Berlin, it was a sobering start to the Eta era, a club still finding its footing after the dismissal of coach Steffen Baumgart earlier this month.
