Wolfsburg’s frustrations showed soon after, with Jeanuel Belocian booked in the 31st minute. Coach changes began at the break as Jesper Lindstrøm made way for Lovro Majer, and further yellow cards followed for Vinícius Souza on 59 minutes and Frankfurt’s Aurele Amenda in the 67th minute.

The hosts increased their attacking options in the second half. Dzenan Pejcinovic entered the fray in the 73rd minute, replacing Patrick Wimmer, while Maximilian Arnold also came on for Christian Eriksen in the same minute. Frankfurt responded with fresh legs of their own, introducing Ansgar Knauff for Amaimouni-Echghouyab on 71 minutes and later making a triple change in the final stages, including Ellyes Skhiri for Højlund.

Wolfsburg finally found a breakthrough deep into stoppage time. In the 90th minute plus seven, Pejcinovic pulled one back, converting after good work from substitute Adam Daghim to make it 1–2. Despite the late goal, Frankfurt held firm to see out the victory.
