Verein für Leibesübungen Wolfsburg e. V., commonly known as VfL Wolfsburg, is a German women's football club based in Wolfsburg, Lower Saxony. The club is currently playing in the top division of Germany the Bundesliga. The club has won the UEFA Women's Champions League in 2013 and 2014.
VfL Wolfsburg had a solid season, in which it just finished inside the top 10. It scored 57 goals in just 34 games, but also conceded 49, which was too much in order to challenge for European places.
VfL Wolfsburg started the season in brilliant fashion, taking an early Bundesliga lead, before slipping back in a nightmare run, which saw the team finish in the midfield, with a lower points haul than the previous seasons. Wolfsburg also dropped a bombshell when they signed Argentine starlet Andrés D'Alessandro of River Plate. D'Alessandro had been relatively disappointing season, but Fernando Baiano together with Diego Klimowicz made sure the attack functioned really well.
VfL Wolfsburg dropped off the pace for the second season running. A successful start to the season saw Wolfsburg running first in the league, looking like strong contenders, but as the season processed, the form dropped, and at the end of the season the team had lost one more match than they had won, surprisingly dropping off the top half of the table. Manager Eric Gerets left after one season in charge, and was replaced by former Borussia Mönchengladbach manager Holger Fach.
VfL Wolfsburg's Volkswagen-funded attack on the established Bundesliga top teams nearly ended in tears, with the side only staying up due to a draw in a directly decisive fixture at home to Kaiserslautern. Cédric Makiadi and Diego Klimowicz turned a 0-1 deficit around within just minutes during the second half, before an equaliser from Marcel Ziemer five minutes from time made for a nervy conclusion. But with no further goals scored, Wolfsburg just stayed up following a nightmare season.
Despite only gaining five less points than last season's title triumph, 1. FC Kaiserslautern were unable to defend their Bundesliga title and finished in fifth – still enough for a second successive season in European competition, in the UEFA Cup. Kaiserlautern also enjoyed a good run in their Champions League debut – topping a group also containing Benfica, PSV Eindhoven and HJK Helsinki and reaching the quarter-finals before being knocked out 6–0 on aggregate by fellow Germans Bayern Munich.
