After Aaron Hunt had concealed his face with scarf and hat during Tuesday afternoon's lactate test, the Werder deputy captain went without any protection for his return to team training on Wednesday. That made it possible to see the 26-year-old smile and laugh during the whole session as the longest-serving current Werder player had finally recovered from his calf injury and practiced again with the team.

"I was able to keep up with no problems and am happy that I am finally back," said the Bremen midfielder after the session. Hunt could not say if he will be fit in time for the final match of the first half of the season on Sunday. "I have to wait and see how the calf reacts in the next couple days. But of course I would be very happy if I could be back against Nuremberg," said Hunt.

And the midfielder said he expects a very hard-fought match-up to finish off the calendar year. "It will certainly by a difficult match. Nuremberg play very compact defensively and defend their goal very well. We must have the necessary patience and cannot lose our confidence," said Hunt. The goal is clear. "Only a victory counts against Nuremberg! With the loss in Frankfurt, we put ourselves under pressure and dropped a couple spots on the table. We absolutely have to win."
