Young wolves lose bitter in Hamburg: strong performance without goals!

In the Women-Regionalliga Nord, the U20 of VfL Wolfsburg experienced a bitter defeat again last Sunday. In an exciting duel against the Eimsbütteler TV, the young wolves had to go 0: 1 from the square despite the clear field superiority. This result means that in the table you will continue to stay in third place with FC St. Pauli, but lose connection to the two leading teams, Hamburger SV and Holstein Kiel. These two teams are unbeaten with seven wins in seven games each.

Despite a dedicated performance, the team of head coach Daniel Kraus was unable to take any points in Hamburg. In the first half, the Wolfsburg women dominated the game, while the hosts could hardly play any significant chances. But the decisive goal for Eimsbüttel was already in the 11th minute when Akou Sarah Nelly Agnui-Tchi took advantage of the defense of the young wolves and carried the ball into the net.

The match was characterized by the clear superiority of VfL Wolfsburg, but the team lacked the necessary precision in the last third of the game. "In the last third, we often lacked precision and sharpness," commented Kraus after the game. Nevertheless, he was satisfied with the overall performance of his players and praised the fighting spirit: "We played a good game with a lot of energy. In the end, however, only goals count in football." This statement underlines the experience that the result of performance often decides, regardless of the actual skill level.

With this result, the challenge for the U20 of VfL Wolfsburg remains clear: It is not only important to keep the ball in the game, but also to accommodate the ball in the goal. The team will probably make the necessary adjustments in the next few weeks to stay competitive in the coming games and not to let the distance to the leading teams grow.
