Stuttgart Demolish Wolfsburg: Stiller Orchestrates Perfect Away Victory

Pásalo Puntuación Futmetrix: 31/100. A ruthless 3-0 away victory at the Volkswagen Arena underscores Stuttgart's credentials for the title race whilst exposing Wolfsburg's deepening crisis with surgical precision.

Clinical Dominance on Hostile Ground

Stuttgart arrived, controlled, and conquered. From the opening whistle, this was never a contest but a masterclass in intensity and execution. Commanding 59% possession and unleashing 15 shots against Wolfsburg's limp 11, the visitors suffocated their hosts with relentless pressure. Angelo Stiller was the architect—his 80th-minute goal crowned a virtuoso display, but his assist for Tiago Tomas in the 35th minute was the dagger that pierced Wolfsburg's fragile defence. The German midfielder's two key passes and 8.9 rating told the story of complete midfield dominance.

Mittelstädt Seals the Rout

The balance was never in question. After Tomas broke the deadlock, Maximilian Mittelstädt doubled the lead in the 55th minute—a strike that extinguished any flicker of resistance. Stuttgart's clinical finishing was merciless: seven shots on target, three conversions. Alexander Nübel in the Stuttgart goal faced minimal threats, his three saves a mere formality. An 84% pass accuracy and 598 total passes underscored the visitors' suffocating control of tempo and territory.

Wolfsburg's Nightmare Deepens

Wolfsburg remain in freefall. One win from seven matches and four defeats in their last five outings paint a grim picture. This 0-3 capitulation to a resurgent opponent compounds the stakes of their survival bid. Eleven shots yielded only three on target—a damning indictment of their bluntness in attack. Fifteenth place with five points is no longer a relegation battle; it's a relegation emergency. Without immediate intervention, the Volkswagen Arena's faithful face an ominous autumn.
