English:
Bayer Leverkusen edged out VfL Wolfsburg in a match played at the Volkswagen Arena in Wolfsburg. Despite having less possession (41% for Wolfsburg compared to Leverkusen’s 59%), the home side had more shots on goal, with 13 attempts (8 on target). However, they lacked efficiency in front of goal. Leverkusen, despite having a significant corner advantage (9 to 3), created fewer clear-cut chances, registering only 1 shot on target. Discipline was lacking on the pitch, with a total of 14 fouls committed (6 by Wolfsburg and 8 by Leverkusen), and 4 yellow cards issued: one to Wolfsburg and three to Leverkusen. An offside goal ruled out in the 7th minute for Wolfsburg, and a general lack of finishing ability, resulted in a tight 0-0 draw, reflecting a game low on goal-scoring opportunities and high on inaccuracies.
