Andre Schurrle has expressed his relief after opening his account for Wolfsburg in Saturday's 3-1 win over Stuttgart.
The former Chelsea attacker netted his first goal since joining the club for £24m in January, and the German, who had gone eight games without a goal, admits that it is a weight off his mind.
"It was about time I scored. I've missed a lot of chances here and I'm just happy to have hit the target now," he told reporters.
"I have to admit that the fact I hadn't scored for such a long time had been eating away at me a bit, so I'm very happy but the most important thing is that we won three points.
"I'd like to say a big thank you to all the fans here to receiving me so well and supporting me. I'm happy to be here and I'm sure we'll have a lot more to celebrate in the future."
Dieter Hecking's side sit 10 points behind Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich in second.
