Leweling doubles up as Stuttgart sink sorry Wolfsburg
Jamie Leweling grabbed a first-half brace and Deniz Undav scored again as Stuttgart cruised to a 4-0 home victory over Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
Nikolas Nartey scored in stoppage time as the German Cup holders drew level with third-placed Hoffenheim on 46 points.
Stuttgart are five points ahead of fifth-placed RB Leipzig, who play at Hamburg in Sunday's late game.
Wolfsburg, who haven't been relegated since promotion to the Bundesliga in 1997, have won just one of their last 10 games and now sit second bottom, three points from safety.
Stuttgart welcomed the Wolves to south-western Germany fresh from beating Celtic 4-2 over two legs to reach the Europa League last 16, where they will face Porto.
Undav pounced on a poor clearance to put Stuttgart ahead with his 14th league goal after 21 minutes.
Chris Fuehrich found Leweling on the half-hour mark to double Stuttgart's lead and the Germany winger scored again just before half-time, volleying in from the right side of the box.
Stuttgart added a fourth late on as Nartey scored with the final kick of the match.
