Hugo Almeida and Markus Rosenberg combined to score seven goals between them against Nordhorn in the DFB-Pokal.

Werder Bremen came through the first competitive game of the 2008/2009 season with flying colours. In the first round of the DFB-Pokal, the Green-Whites took on 'Oberliga' (5th division) side Eintracht Nordhorn and eventually ran out 9-3 (4-1) winners. It was a particularly positive afternoon for the Werder strikers with Markus Rosenberg opening the scoring after just six minutes. The Swede was in top form on the day and went on to score four goals in total during the Werder rout. Rosenberg's striker partner Hugo Almeida was not about to be easily out-done and the Portuguese front man managed a brace before the break and completed his hat-trick five minutes into the second period.

 

In the 62nd minute Almeida made way for Boubacar Sanogo who got in on the scoring himself ten minutes later. It was another substitute that was to finish the scoring for the visitors with Jurica Vranjes converting a simple tap-in to make it nine for the Bundeslga side. Eintracht Nordhorn never truly looked like proving a threat but did battle bravely and managed to score three goals of their own on the day, much to the approval of the 9,000 spectators, although a great number of whom were wearing green and white. Werder Bremen will certainly consider themselves satisfied with their effectiveness in front of goal on the day but the defence did look somewhat less than convincing on several occasions.
