Bauer: "I had to make a decision"

Robert Bauer’s parents came to Germany from Kazakhstan in 1994. One year later, the Werder professional was brought into the world.  "My parents had pretty much nothing and we knew no-one.

He still returns to his home town now to visit his...

"I didn't know where I was"

Lamine Sané loves the atmosphere at the Weser-Stadion. The Senegalese was immediately impressed by the singing and dancing of the home fans.  However, his appearance in the last 16 of the Champions League against Olympiakos remains incomparable. This experience in the Greek capital seven years ago remains the highlight for Sané.

Play with ease, but don't let up

It’s official. Werder are staying in the Bundesliga. Thanks to the 2-0 win over Hertha Berlin, the Green-Whites have ensured another season in Germany’s top division. The interviews after the game were on a different, however: Europe. Kruse, Bartels and co. helped Werder move up to sixth in the table today and suddenly, the prospect of European football next season seems a little more plausible....

"No one would have thought it"

Zlatko Junuzovic remembers exactly what was said a little more than two months ago. Werder sat 16th in the table and had a meagre 16 points to their name. “A lot of people thought at the time that we were down, that we would be relegated,” said Junuzovic looking back. You can tell by the way the vice-captain speaks that he takes an enormous amount of satisfaction from the fact that things turned...

Togetherness and intent

Things couldn’t really be going much better for Werder at the moment. The Green-Whites currently occupy sixth place in the Bundesliga and will be trying to defend this position on Friday evening in Köln (20:30 CEST).
