Making use of the break in the Bundesliga. Werder's numbers in training will start to thin out, but the reason is positive - international break. After a win against FC Augsburg, the boys have two weeks off from Bundesliga action. "It is good that we have two weeks time. Our injured players like Ujah, Gebre Selassie, Fritz, Grillisch and Junuzovic can recover. We hope that all our players are fit again for the Wolfsburg game," said head coach Viktor Skripnik. Goalkeeper Felix Wiedwald can also make use of the break. "The international break is positive for us. We secured a win, and can now come together and look ahead," said Wiedwald. "Furthermore, it will allow any knocks to heal."

Pizarro named 'Man of the Match'. After a 2-1 win in Augsburg, Claudio Pizarro was voted official Volkswagen man of the match on Werder's Facebook page. 'Piza' was subbed on for the injured Anthony Ujah, and went on to score his first goal since returning to the Green Whites, the winning goal on the day. 16 years and 57 days had passed in between his two most recent Werder Bremen goals. Congratulations, Claudio!
