Full-time: Wolfsburg 1-1 Augsburg
The points are shared here in Wolfsburg as the hosts must continue to search for their first home win of the season, and the visitors their first away win. Wolfsburg dominated possession all game, and whilst they did struggle to break down a resilient Augsburg side, they come away with a deserved point at least. Amoura's late rocket of an equaliser lifted the home side but not enought to find a winner.

Essende sees yellow
There is a coming together between the striker and Koulierakis. In the midst of the challenge the Essende just treads on the Wolfsburg man's foot.
83'
Unstoppable from Amoura!
Finally they have themselves an equaliser. Measured approach play from Wolfsburg finally pays off. A cross is floated into Mæhle down the left, who immediately cuts it back for Amoura. The Algerian smashes the ball first time into the top right, power beating the keeper for an emphatic equaliser. Could we be in for an eventful climax here?

Dangerous free-kick
The hosts have a free-kick just outside the Augsburg penalty area. Arnold strikes with his left, but it deflects off Gerhardt into the arms of Labrović. That sums up Wolfsburg's afternoon really.
73'
So close from Mæhle
The ball is played from the right to the left back, who had crept into space up the left. He gets a shot away just inside the box but Labrović gets down very well to his right to parry it behind for a corner. Best chance of the game for Wolfsburg.
72'
Another call for handball
Wolfsburg scream for a penalty, believing Onyeka to have handled the ball in the box, but the referee points to the corner flag.
69'
Good cross by Giannoulis
The left back puts in a cross deep towards the back post; Wolfsburg manage to clear behind for a corner. Nothing comes of the corner, taken by Rexhbecaj, but this has been the most sustained period of Augsburg pressure in the second half.
68'
Majer signals to the bench
More worrying signs for Wolfsburg. The man whose just come on has signalled to the bench that he needs to come off. Gerhardt takes his place.

Wide from Tomás
Lovely play from Wolfsburg. They combine patiently in the middle before playing a ball over the top to Tomás, who stretches for the ball. He makes contact but only enough to knock it round the Augsburg keeper but wide of the goal.
59'
Tomás gets to the byline
The winger is played through, making it to the byline, but his attempt to cut it back into the box is caught by the Augsburg keeper.
57'
Double change
Wolfsburg make a double substitution as they continue to search for a way back into this game. Wind was clearly still feeling the effects from that earlier knock on his ribs and makes way for Majer. Behrens comes in for Fischer and Baku drops back to right back.

Concerning for Wolfsburg this. The midfielder goes down off the ball and calls for treatment.

Wolfsburg corner
Arnold takes yet another Wolfsburg corner. It evades everyone in the middle before falling at the feet of Amoura at the far post, who brings it down and fires a shot off, but it gets blocked.

Wolfsburg get the ball rolling again for this second half.

Half-time: Wolfsburg 0-1 Augsburg
A frustrating half for the hosts this one. Neither side have had any clear-cut chances, but despite Wolfsburg dominating possession, they can't find a way through the Augsburg defence. A momentary lapse in concentration cost Wolfsburg dearly, allowing Phillip Tietz to sneak in behind, round Grabara, and find the back of the net for his third of the season. Plenty of room for improvement for both sides in the second half.

Onyeka crosses
Augsburg counter-attack. Claude-Maurice finds Onyeka down the right, and there's a free man at the back post, but Onyeka can't find him with a cross.

It falls to Amoura
Wolfsburg have a corner. They don't win the first header, but the ball falls to Amoura, who can't get his shot away in time.
37'
Amoura tries to respond
Quick play from Wolfsburg after the restart releases Amoura down the left. He gets a shot away, but it's blocked behind for a corner.
35'
Tietz pounces!
Calamitous defending from Wolfsburg. A ball played from deep by Schlotterbeck is threaded through to Tietz. Wolfsburg should deal with it, but there seems to be a mix-up in communication between the Wolfsburg keeper and defender, allowing Tietz to pounce on the loose ball and round the keeper, before finishing into an open net.

Mæhle again
The full-back cuts onto his right foot this time, before shooting. His effort is deflected before Amoura picks it up, having another go. This time it's blocked behind for a corner, but nothing comes of it.
31'
Dangerous cross
Mæhle picks the ball up in space on the left. His low whipped cross troubles Labrović, who manages to parry it out into the box, before Augsburg get it clear.

A long ball is switched out to the winger. He brings it down brilliantly and shifts it onto his right foot before shooting, but it's straight down the throat of the Augsburg keeper. First shot on goal for either side that.

Amoura chasing
A backpass from Schlotterbeck looked for a minute that it wouldn't reach Labrović, and Amoura bares down on it, but the keeper gets there first.

The winger cuts in off the left and dribbles into the Augsburg box, but the ball gets trapped under his feet and he can't get his cross away.
