Leipzig – Wolfsburg 2:0 |
Shoe confusion regarding Kruse
Max Kruse (34) amazed, Leipzig cheered!
In the duel between the hitherto winless test-tube clubs, Domenico Tedesco’s team (36) deservedly won 2-0 at home once morest Wolfsburg. An ice-cold hand penalty by Christopher Nkunku (24) in the 5th minute and a second late goal by the Frenchman (90th) make the difference.
The first highlight of the game is Wolfsburg’s problem star!
Kruse, who was the last to be retired, first appeared as a complete surprise in the starting XI – and then also appeared with two different-colored shoes. He wears a white kick on the left and a red kick on the right.
Why, that remains the secret of the eccentric ex-national player (14 appearances).
In terms of sport, Kruse remains inconspicuous, has just 18 ball contacts in the first half and only wins half of his duels.
Like the rest of his team, far too little once morest strong and toxic Leipzigers, who also get along well without star striker Timo Werner (26) up to the 64th minute. The returnee from Chelsea is still struggling with the following-effects of an infection.
For Wolfsburg, who waited until the 57th minute for their first chance to score with a shot by Omar Marmoush (23/missing the post) and only then became more dangerous, that’s enough.
Because: Just in time for the 90th minute, Nkunku put the lid on it with his second goal from just a few meters away!
