On the sixth matchday of the 2. Bundesliga, VfL Wolfsburg defeats Darmstadt 5:1.

The Wolfsburg side thus deepens Darmstadt's crisis. After the defeat against VfL, the "Lilies" find themselves in second-to-last place in the table.

The hosts take an early 1-0 lead. Bernhardsson scores the opener for the "Wolves" after an assist from Reese (14'). Subsequently, the relegated team (Darmstadt) actually has everything under control.

But full-back Maehle commits a terrible mispass, which leads to Darmstadt's equalizer. Klefisch lays it off to Smit with one touch, and he coolly slots it into the top corner (29').

Shortly before halftime, Glatzel then shows his qualities in the box, rises highest in the six-yard area, and heads in to restore the lead (40').

Darmstadt comes out strong after the break, but Pfeiffer's shot hits the post and rolls along the line (49'). After that, the hosts from Wolfsburg turn up the heat.

Bernhardsson bags his brace again after a Reese assist (60'), and Damar makes it 4-1, effectively sealing the win (66').

Choosing the Man of the Match in this game is difficult. For Robert Glatzel's 5-1 goal (79'), Reese was again involved, collecting his third assist.

In the second 2. Bundesliga match, Greuter Fürth and Magdeburg draw 1-1.

Magdeburg makes a furious start to the game. As early as the fifth minute, Iyoha shoots from a tight angle, securing an early 1-0 lead.

However, Fürth does not give up. After a nice combination, Sillah gets to the ball just before Reimann and slots in the 1-1 equalizer. The goal is initially disallowed for offside, but VAR subsequently awards it.

In the second half, both teams push for the decisive goal, but it doesn't materialize, and the match ends 1-1.
