😳 Epic embarrassment averted? Wolfsburg hit back after collapse

The match initially looked exactly as the balance of power suggested. VfL Wolfsburg, the overwhelming favorites for promotion, were leading 3-0 against promoted side Cottbus after just 34 minutes. But then everything changed.

Cottbus hit back shortly before and after halftime, fighting their way back to 3-2, before Tolcay Cigerci equalized from the penalty spot in the 67th minute — an outcome that probably nobody would have even remotely expected half an hour earlier.
