Bundesliga: Bayern misses the chance to lead the table - VfL further ahead

In the top game of the women's Bundesliga, VfL Wolfsburg defended its lead against FC Bayern Munich. In front of 21,287 spectators in the Volkswagen Arena used for the top duel, the hosts won 2-1 (1-0).

In the final phase, the guests missed the equalizer despite good chances. Wolfsburg extended their lead at the top of the table to five points with their fifth win in five games of the season.

In what was at times a tough game, the Wolfsburg women were saved by a deflected shot by attacker Ewa Pajor (41st minute). National player and captain Svenja Huth (58th) scored the 2-0 in the second half with a spectacular volley. In the 73rd minute, Klara Bühl scored the goal.

After the bitter 0:6 in the previous season, the Munich team defended passionately and didn't allow many chances for the VfL offensive. With a win, FCB would have overtaken the league leaders from Wolfsburg.

Despite the numerous visitors in the arena, VfL could not break the attendance record in the women's Bundesliga. The record number of 23,200 visitors was set at the start of the season for the Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Bayern game.
