In the first half, Wolfsburg started the better side with Patrick Wimmer's eighth minute effort landing in the hands of Hoffenheim's Oliver Baumann. 

However, Hoffenheim put some pressure on in the 15th minute despite Anton Stach's cross not finding anyone in the box.

The biggest overall chance of the half fell in the 22nd minute for Wolfsburg but Tiago Tomas was not able to squeeze the ball in from close distance.

Lastly, the final chance of the half for Hoffenheim came for their midfielder Tom Bischof but he was unable to score.

In the 63rd minute Dennis Vavro scored following a Maximilian Arnold assist thanks to a free kick from a scoreable position being laid off to him. 

During the 67th minute, Jonas Wind found himself free in the box and finished into the right corner 

In the 85th minute, the game was killed off thanks to quick free kick played out by Wolfsburg which left Yannick Gerhardt was free one-on-one to made it three-nil.

Overall, Hoffenheim will be disappointed that they failed to register a single shot on target and really test Wolfsburg's defence.
