🖥️ How much mockery is fair? The web revels in Wolfsburg's relegation!

What long seemed unimaginable became reality on May 25, 2026: after 29 years in the top flight, VfL Wolfsburg and its many million-euro stars have actually been relegated to the 2. Bundesliga!

The 2-1 defeat after extra time at SC Paderborn was symbolic of an absolute horror season for the Wolves. After an early second yellow for Joakim Mæhle, the Lower Saxony side had to battle a man down for a total of 115 minutes – in vain in the end.

All the more bitter: the internet has absolutely no sympathy for the ten remaining Wolves. Quite the opposite: it almost seems as if an entire football nation had been waiting for the factory club’s relegation.

Even the internet’s most famous meme templates were brought out.

The club’s wealthy main sponsor also came in for its share of ridicule.

The same goes for unfortunate man Mæhle, whose sending-off is what got VfL into this mess in the first place.

I wonder what TV legend Klaas Heufer-Umlauf thinks of the relegation of “his” Wolves?

The relegation is especially bitter for head coach Dieter Hecking. He had already failed to avoid the drop with VfL Bochum last season.

Apparently, the celebrations are not only happening in Paderborn on this Monday evening.

On social media, a huge relegation party at Wolfsburg’s expense is currently in full swing. Is this much schadenfreude still okay?
