Cologne draw keeps Wolfsburg winless since United

Wolfsburg remain winless in their four games since beating Manchester United in the Champions League after being held to a 1-1 Bundesliga draw at home to Cologne on Sunday.

Wolfsburg face Gent in the away leg of their last-16 clash in Europe on February 17.

But Dieter Hecking's side have now lost two and drawn two in their last four games since knocking United out of the Champions League with a 3-2 win last December.

Wolfsburg's luck deserted them again at their Volkswagen Arena as they threw away a second-half lead.

The hosts went ahead when right-winger Vieirinha fired in a cross, which found Julian Draxler unmarked for the Germany international to fire home on 67 minutes.

But Cologne equalised eight minutes later when Leonardo Bittencourt's pass put Anthony Modeste into space. The Frenchman then unleashed a superb curling shot which beat Wolves 'keeper Diego Benaglio.

The result leaves Wolfsburg seventh -- outside the European places for next season -- and Cologne ninth.

Bayern Munich host Hoffenheim later on Sunday, without Javi Martinez who is their latest star to pick up an injury.

On Saturday, Borussia Dortmund moved within five points of the Bavarians with a 2-0 win over Ingolstadt as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice to leave him with 20 league goals in 19 games.

Dortmund could consider themselves fortunate though as captain Mats Hummels escaped a red card for a foul in the area, then scored a second-half own-goal, which the referee refused to award to Ingolstadt after a foul in the build-up.

The result stretched Dortmund's lead over third-placed Hertha Berlin to 10 points.

Hertha threw away a 2-0 lead as hosts Werder Bremen roared back with three goals in ten second-half minutes to claim a point in a 3-3 draw.

Ivory Coast veteran Salomon Kalou struck Berlin's third goal to leave Hertha 3-1 up in Bremen with 20 minutes left.

Then Bremen veteran Claudio Pizarro netted a penalty before defender Santiago Garcia fired in a shot which was later credited to Pizarro, who nudged the ball over the line to level the scores.

Bayer Leverkusen climbed to fourth with a 3-0 win at Hanover 96, who dropped to the bottom, with Javier Hernandez scoring twice in the romp.

'Chicharito' converted a penalty, then drilled home his 13th league goal in 16 matches.

He has now scored 21 times in all competitions this season since joining from Manchester United.

Schalke have youth to thank for their 2-0 win at Darmstadt as dynamic midfielders Max Meyer and Leroy Sane, who are both 20, scored either side of half-time.

The win left the Royal Blues fifth in the table and relieves some of the pressure on coach Andre Breitenreiter after last Sunday's shock home defeat against Bremen.

Schalke and Leverkusen's wins meant Borussia Moenchengladbach slid from fourth to sixth after Friday's 1-0 defeat to mid-table Mainz.

Mid-table sides Augsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt fought out a goalless draw in Bavaria.

Strugglers Stuttgart are two points clear of the relegation places after their dramatic 2-1 win at home to mid-table Hamburg.

Stuttgart's new signing Artem Kravets, who arrived earlier this month from Dynamo Kiev, headed the winnner on 88 minutes for his first Bundesliga goal.
