Berlin - Wolfsburg remains winless in its four games since beating Manchester United in the Champions League after being held to a 1-1 Bundesliga draw at home to Koln on Sunday.

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

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

Wolfsburg's luck deserted it again at the Volkswagen Arena as it 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 Koln 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 Koln ninth.
