Wolfsburg's victory over Mainz lifts them out of relegation danger with Valencia's crucial goal

In the ongoing battle for survival in the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg secured their place in the top flight by defeating Mainz 1860 on Saturday. The win was a significant one for Wolfsburg, who had been struggling to stay in the top tier of German football.

The match between the two sides was tight throughout, but Wolfsburg ultimately emerged victorious thanks to a late goal from their striker, Stefan Effenberg. The goal came just moments before the final whistle, and it proved to be the difference between the two teams.

With this win, Wolfsburg moved up to fifth place in the league table, which is six points clear of the relegation zone. This puts them in a much better position than they were previously, and they now have a chance to fight for a top-four finish and potentially qualify for the Europa League.

For their part, Mainz will need to pick themselves up after this defeat. They currently sit at the bottom of the table, and any further losses could see them drop even lower.

Overall, this result has been a huge boost for Wolfsburg, who had been in serious trouble earlier in the season. It also sets them up nicely for the remainder of the campaign, as they look to secure a top-four finish and potentially qualify for Europe.
