The enormously important 2-1 victory in Bremen from the night before was still fresh and front of mind as the players gathered in Zuzenhausen for a warm-down in optimal weather conditions. The pervasive presence of spring had submerged the horizon in TSG blue, which made for a perfect backdrop at an extremely important point of the season for Hoffenheim – and one at which they are finally enjoying some success again.

FSV signed off their season with an entertaining 2-2 draw against Eintracht Frankfurt. Mainz took the lead through Marcus Ingvartsen but Eintracht responded with goals from Tuta and Borré before the break. The Dane, however, scored a second just after half time to put The Zerofivers back on level terms. Although there was technically nothing to play for, there was lots of passion on show in this tightly contested derby. Daniel Brosinski was substituted in the 71st minute to bring the curtain down on his Mainz career.

VfL Wolfsburg picked up a long-awaited three points on Saturday afternoon with a 2-0 victory at Köln, registering their first win in the second half of the Bundesliga season. Yannick Gerhardt fired the Green-and-Whites in front in just the fourth minute. In a game of few clear-cut opportunities, VfL kept it tight at the back while continuing to ask questions in attack. Eventually it was Maximilian Arnold’s 68th-minute penalty which sealed the Wolves’ first win in six games in all competitions. Niko Kovac’s side can follow that up next Sunday, 5 March, when they host Eintracht Frankfurt at the Volkswagen Arena (kick-off 17:30 CET).
