German Bundesliga side Wolfsburg secure their top flight status with a slim 1-0 win over Eintracht Braunschweig which gave them a 2-0 aggregate win after winning the first leg 1-0 on Saturday.
A wonder goal from Veirinha in the 49th minute settled the tie in Wolfsburg favour and ensured they remain in the Bundesliga after winning both legs of their relegation/promotion play-off tie against second division Eintracht Braunschweig.
Super Eagles of Nigeria forward Victor Osimhen was introduced very late in the game as Wolfsburg looked to run down the clock, with the 18 year old coming on for Mario Gomez on the dot of regulation time.
He is now expected to leave Germany for the Super Eagles camp in France, where they will prepare for the upcoming AFCON 2019 Qualifiers clash with South Africa with a tune up game against Togo on the 1st of June.
Osimhen wasn’t the only Nigerian on show during the game as former youth international Suleiman Abdullahi was introduced by Braunschweig before the hour mark but he failed to help his side restor parity in the game.
