VfL Wolfsburg has secured their first victory of the season in Bundesliga with a hard-fought 3-1 win over Hertha BSC at the Veltins-Arena on Sunday afternoon.
The match was full of drama from start to finish, but it was Enner Valencia who shone brightest for Wolfsburg. The Colombian striker scored two goals and provided an assist as he helped his team to secure all three points.
Valencia's first goal came just after half-time when he latched onto a cross from Robert Lewandowski and volleyed home from close range. His second goal came moments later when he finished off a fine move involving Lewandowski and Mario Mandzukic before slotting home from close range.
Arnold also played a key role in the win, climbing up to fourth place in the league table thanks to a brace of goals against Hertha BSC. The Austrian defender had been struggling for form this season but he showed why he is one of the best defenders in the league by scoring twice in as many games since returning from injury.
Overall, it was a great day for Wolfsburg, who have now turned their fortunes around under new manager Dieter Hecking. They will be hoping to build on this result as they look to push for a top-four finish in the coming weeks.
