Wout Weghorst was not to be enjoyed on Saturday after the defeat of VfL Wolfsburg at TSG Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga. The visitors took the lead thanks to the fifteenth goal of the Dutchman, but eventually left the field with a 2-1 defeat. The questions of Martin Gross, the journalist from Sky, Weghorst did not like it at all.
Weghorst was asked whether Wolfburg is in a trough after the midweek cup elimination against RB Leipzig. “Do you really mean this now?”, The attacker responded. “How long have we lost until today (Saturday, ed.)? When you start a conversation like this, you have a very negative attitude. Then I will stop this interview. ”

“It is our first Bundesliga loss after two months. You have to read up better and formulate the questions differently. I’m Holländer, but I don’t think it was very positive of you. ” Indeed, it was only the first defeat in the Bundesliga since January 3, when Borussia Dortmund was lost 2-0. Then, until Saturday, six wins and three draws in nine Bundesliga games followed.
Despite the defeat, Weghorst reached a special milestone as a player for Wolfsburg. After his hit on Saturday, he is the first player in Wolfsburg history to have scored at least fifteen goals in three Bundesliga seasons in a row.
