Result and announcement
Bayern Munich won 3-1 away to VfL Wolfsburg on 3 February 2001, with Giovane Elber scoring twice at the VfL-Stadion am Elsterweg. The visitors led 2-1 at half-time and added the only goal of the second half to finish with a two-goal margin in Bundesliga round 20.
Detail
Elber opened the scoring in the 13th minute, but Andrzej Juskowiak equalised in the 27th. Mehmet Scholl then put Bayern back in front in the 45th minute. That sequence matters to the result: Wolfsburg recovered from the first deficit, only to enter the interval behind again after Scholl's goal.
Context and dates
Elber's second goal extended Bayern's lead after the break. The precise minute differs between the official and independent records reviewed, so it is not repeated here. Ottmar Hitzfeld coached Bayern opposite Wolfgang Wolf, with Oliver Kahn and Claus Reitmaier the starting goalkeepers. The DFB lists 20,400 spectators; its completed match record provides the exact event day, independently of the date this archive report was added.
