Weghorst headed home to complete a counter-attack sparked by Kevin Mbabu, leaving the home side languishing second from bottom of the Bundesliga and closer to relegation.<\/p>\n
Weghorst failed to make the most of an early chance for the visitors, while Wolfsburg goalkeeper Koen Casteels saved well from Yuya Osako midway through the first half.<\/p>\n
Xaver Schlager hit the woodwork for Wolfsburg, before Weghorst\u2019s goal left Bremen in desperate need of points when they travel to bottom club Paderborn next Saturday.<\/p>\n
Philipp Max struck late on to grab a precious point for struggling Augsburg in a dramatic finish to their clash with Cologne at the WWK Arena.<\/p>\n
Anthony Modeste looked to have claimed the visitors a first win in six Bundesliga games when he broke the deadlock moments after coming on as a substitute in the 85th minute.<\/p>\n
But three minutes later Max scored his eighth and potentially most important goal of the season when he volleyed home a Raphael Framberger cross to secure a 1-1 draw and nudge his side four points clear of the bottom three.<\/p>\n
Everton loanee Jonjoe Kenny fired a 25th-minute equalizer as mid-table Schalke, without a win in 12 league games, claimed a 1-1 draw at Union Berlin.<\/p>\n
Robert Andrich had given the home side an 11th-minute lead but Kenny let fly to beat Berlin keeper Rafal Gikiewicz for his second league goal of the season.<\/p>\n
