Full-time: Wolfsburg 1-3 Augsburg

Augsburg equal a club record of four straight wins to keep their push for European football alive, and pile the pressure on Wolfsburg coach Niko Kovac, whose side have now gone a club record 11 games without a win. The red card was probably the turning point, but a dominant second half from Augsburg is rewarded with the points.

Four in a row?

It is his day, it is Augsburg's day as they sniff a fourth straight win. It is a sign of the confidence he has that he decided to take aim from distance, sending a low shot into the bottom corner to put the points in the bank - probably.

Pressure pays off

It has been all Augsburg in this second half, and now they lead. Wolfsburg cannot clear their lines from a corner and the ball falls at the feet of Jakic, who dispatches it for his first goal of the season. A fourth straight Bundesliga win looking possible for Augsburg.

Half-time: Wolfsburg 1-1 Augsburg

All was going according to plan for Wolfsburg until Wimmer went from hero to villain, fouling Mbabu on the edge of the area. The referee adjudged it to be the denial of a clear goalscoring opportunity and Wimmer was sent off, and as he walked down the tunnel fighting back the tears, Maier's free-kick deflected in to bring the guests level. With an extra man, the Bavarians will now fancy their chances of snatching a fourth straight win.

In off the post

Wimmer receives the ball level with the penalty spot and swivels well before sending in a shot which, for dramatic effect, goes in off the inside of the post!

Highs and lows

Twenty-five points with a goal difference of -11 marks Wolfsburg's worst ever tally at this stage in a Bundesliga season. Augsburg, meanwhile, can land a fourth consecutive win for only the second time since their top-flight promotion in 2011, having first done so under Markus Weinzierl in 2014.
