A late winner from Gian-Luca Waldschmidt helped Hamburg to a vital 2-1 win over Wolfsburg and move out of the relegation play-off place.

Gian-Luca Waldschmidt's dramatic winner kept Hamburg in the Bundesliga courtesy of a 2-1 win over Wolfsburg at Volksparkstadion to condemn Andries Jonker's men to the relegation play-off.

A late Pierre-Michel Lasogga equaliser against Schalke last week kept Hamburg's hopes of snatching 16th place in the table off Wolfsburg alive, but they knew only a win on the final day would be enough to guarantee another year of top-flight football.
