Champions League aspirant against relegation candidates, that sounds like a clear case in the Cup quarter-finals. But Freiburg offers the favored Wolfsburgern a tough fight. The tight VfL victory is quite happy.
The VfL Wolfsburg has renewed his subscription to the semi-finals of the Cup in the German Football Association. After the penalty of Ricardo Rodriguez to 1: 0 (0: 0) victory over SC Freiburg team of Dieter Hecking is the third time in a row in the round of four. This makes it her goal to win a title this season, came a step closer. That would be the coach had said. “Whether we do it the culmination of a great season, I can not predict what I can say is. We are hungry for success.” The only partially true for the fans though: With 15,207 spectators, the Wolfsburg stadium was half empty
The Wolfsburg players who have a place in the Champions League have almost certainly as runners in the Bundesliga and want to use their next chance on Thursday of next week against Napoli in the quarter-final first leg of the Europa League, the hunger for success was more likely to be noted. The Freiburg, which in turn fight against relegation, VfL made life but long and hard and successfully presented themselves as stubborn spoilsport. Most from the center line they disturbed the VfL-Stars already, so the Wolfsburg did not get serious chances.
It was not until five minutes before the break seemed to have gotten around at the Wolfsburg that her coach before the game announced again clearly: “I do not want just to Berlin, I want to win in Berlin.” There is – who has no idea? – On May 30 at the Olympic Stadium, the final place. Anyway, the hosts had three times the chance to score the first goal of the night. Only attacker Bas Dost was unlocked after 39 minutes from colleagues Kevin de Bruyne perfectly but Freiburg’s goalkeeper Roman Bürki deflected the shot. The ball bounced in front of Luiz Gustavo – which in turn failed to Stefan Mitrovic. On the line of SC defender could clarify. Just 120 seconds later shot Wolfsburg Vieirinha from a distance -. But Bürki deflected the ball to the cross bar
And Wednesday night is solved
went after changing it merrily, to the chagrin of the guests usually in only one direction. Wolfsburg was now clearly the better team – but André Schürrle (48th), de Bruyne (52) and again Schürrle (69) were aimed just wide, which slowly but surely limited in amount to negligence. After 72 minutes but Wolfsburg’s offered a chance that even they could not refuse. Freiburg’s defensive midfielder Julian Schuster had fouled Daniel Caligiuri, and as he did so in the penalty area, the referee Tobias Stieler decided to cope penalty. Ricardo Rodriguez scored the 1: 0 for the likes

But the Freiburger not put on, but now they were the ones who just three minutes. later did not act decisively enough. Admir Mehmedi crossed wonderful on Philipp Maximilian, who seemed somewhat surprised to find themselves suddenly unattended and only eleven meters in front of the Wolfsburg goal with the ball at his feet. His goal in any case was not a major problem for goalkeeper Diego Benaglio. At the end of the SC Freiburg is scarce but deserves eliminated from the German Cup. Although the team of coach Christian Streich is likely a little quarrel with the fact that with a little more determination and luck certainly more would have been possible for them that night.
The Wolfsburg, however, are now looking forward to the semi-finals, will be drawn tomorrow, Wednesday evening around 23 clock in the ARD and on Tuesday and Wednesday, April 28 and 29, takes place. Last year, the VfL failed after an equally good as rapid game at Borussia Dortmund 0: 2 in the semifinal, 2013 Off with a 1 was 6 at Bayern Munich have been much clearer. So now comes the third attempt. One thing is clear: The Wolfsburg want to Berlin. And the Wolfsburg want a title. But as a precaution coach Hecking had already built out in an interview with the “Wolfsburg message”: “Must I therein do not see.”
