It's all over. Wolfsburg's Europa League hopes have been handed a major boost as Wout Weghorst's first goal since the start of March hands the visitors a 1-0 win over strugglers Werder Bremen in rainy conditions in Bremen.
The decisive goal for Wolfsburg means they move into the Europa League spots ahead of Hoffenheim on 45 points, but it's a bad situation for Bremen who are now six points off safety in 17th.
FOUR minutes of added time.

A huge goal for Wolfsburg who will move into the Europa League spots if they can hold on for victory today, but it's a bad situation for Bremen who are six points off safety as things stand. Can the hosts find a late equaliser?
GOAL! Weghorst scores his first goal since the start of March!
Mbabu wins the ball at the other end and drives up the pitch. He lays it off to Klaus who nods the ball into the bottom corner!
Goal
W. Weghorst
YELLOW! For Bittencourt just minutes after coming off the bench. A bit of rustiness on show perhaps.
OFF THE BAR! Arnold's indirect free-kick comes out to the edge of the area - after two blocked shots - to Schlager who fires a venomous strike off the woodwork! That was easily the best chance of this second half!
Yellow card
L. Bittencourt
SUB! Bittencourt is on for Sargent

GOOD CHANCE! Brekalo's low corner finds Schlager but he fires his first-time effort over the bar.
It cannot be overstated just how heavy the rain is in Bremen. Everyone is soaked and it is negatively impacting the football. Can someone pluck out a late winner in these grim conditions?
OVER! Augustinsson's left-footed free-kick curls over the wall but, ultimately, over the bar.
A good sliding challenge from Velkjovic on Brekalo. The Serbian defender has been mostly solid this afternoon. It is chucking it down in Bremen.
YELLOW! Bremen have a free-kick after Mbabu brings down Osako just outside the box. Mbabu picks up a yellow.
Mbabu not happy about that - he looked to have got a toe to the ball.
Yellow card
K. Mbabu
SUBS! A double change for Wolfsburg. Klaus comes on for Victor and Ginczek is in for Mehmedi.

Mbabu produces another threatening cross into the area which evades Weghorst and Wolfsburg have a corner.
It's cleared before eventually Roussillon's cross back in is caught by Pavlenka.
YELLOW! The third booking issued in this ten minute spell - and the fourth of the match - for Pongracic who drags back Sargent.
Klaassen's free-kick is cleared away by Arnold.
Yellow card
M. Pongracic
With the rain pouring down Mbabu gets yet another dangerous ball into the area from the right, but Mehmedi's header skids off his forehead and veers wide.
YELLOW! For the combative Austrian midfielder Schlager after he collides with Sargent. There's a bit more bite to this game now.
Yellow card
X. Schlager
CHANCE! Mbabu's excellent cross to the back post finds Weghorst, he leaps up and connects with it but his header comes off the rising Veljkovic and Bremen can clear.
YELLOW! For Sargent for tugging the back of Roussillon's shirt.
Yellow card
J. Sargent
We are back underway! No changes for either side at the break.
