Wolfsburg on away loss to Bochum at Vonovia Ruhrstadion on Sunday. With each team arriving on the back of a league defeat, they were both keen to pick up points. Bochum were looking forward to meeting again after losing their last game 1-0 to Union Berlin. Wolfsburg were beaten 4-0 in the previous match against Bayern Munich. As it stands, Bochum and Wolfsburg sit 11th, (23 points) and 14th, (20 points), in the table respectively, after 18 matches.

After a goalless first half, Bochum piled on the pressure in the second and were rewarded, with a goal from Milos Pantovic in the 65th minute, leaving the final score at 1-0.

Both coaches used the full entitlement. For Bochum, Christopher Antwi-Adjej, Eduard Lowen and Robert Tesche, came on for Takuma Asano, Milos Pantovic and Elvis Rexhbecaj, Wolfsburg brought on Felix Nmecha, Renato Steffen and Bartosz Bialek to replace Luca Waldschmidt, Maximilian Philipp and Jerome Roussillon.

There were bookings for Danilo Soares from Bochum, and Luca Waldschmidt and Renato Steffen, for Wolfsburg.

Bochum will next travel to Mainz, while Wolfsburg will face Hertha at home.
