Bundesliga: RB Leipzig Snatch Late Draw Against Wolfsburg
| Wolfsburg's winless streak against top-seven sides continues |
RB Leipzig held on for a 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg, extending unbeaten run to 13 Bundesliga matches.
Leipzig hardly troubled in the aftermath, and Wolfsburg looked to be cruising to victory...
RB Leipzig dropped points in their title push, settling for a 2-2 draw against VfL Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg didn't exactly cover themselves in glory, failing to keep a clean sheet for the 14th league match running.
Leipzig bounced back from their DFB-Pokal loss to Bayern, dominating the first half but failing to score.
Wolfsburg's first chance fizzled when Christian Eriksen's long-range shot sailed over. Meanwhile, Grabara was already on fire, saving a Yan Diomande shot from a tight angle.
Grabara kept Wolfsburg in it, denying Conrad Harder's overhead kick and Brajan Gruda's close-range effort in a stunning first-half display.
Grabara kept Wolfsburg alive, saving a Diomande effort after a brilliant first touch and turn. Wolfsburg then took the lead on the counter.
Adam Daghim's clever play set up Mohamed Amoura, who struck high into the far corner for Wolfsburg's opener.
Leipzig were the only Bundesliga side yet to previously salvage a point from a losing position this season, but they suddenly restored parity when Grabara finally made a mistake in giving it away cheaply to Gruda, who shifted it on for Diomande to slot inside the near bottom corner.
But the hosts didn’t remain on level terms for long, as they were stunned again on the break when Jeanuel Belocian marauded down the left and played in Mattias Svanberg, who buried his finish past Maarten Vandevoort into the far corner.

Leipzig hardly troubled in the aftermath, and Wolfsburg looked to be cruising to victory, but the visiting defence switched off with just a couple of minutes remaining and allowed Gruda to set himself and curl a left-footed shot into the far corner from the edge of the area.
The only draw of the Bundesliga matchday, the result is not what either manager would have been hoping for, especially for Wolfsburg, who led for so much of the second half.
They’ve now failed to win all of their nine matches against current top-seven sides this season, while Leipzig finally get something after going behind in the league and just about keep their run of 13 unbeaten in Sunday Bundesliga matches going.
