the first half, turning in the rebound after keeper Tim Wiese could only parry Cicero's shot.
The visitors, 2009 champions under coach Felix Magath who returned to the club last month to lead their fight against relegation, held on although Makoto Hasebe was forced to clear a free kick off the line.
Wolfsburg, who began the day in the relegation playoff spot in 16th place, jumped to 14th after their victory.
