Werder Bremen players left the pitch at Signal-Iduna Park with hanging heads after a 1-0 loss against Borussia Dortmund. The disappointment was clear to see after failing to collect their second victory of the second half and jump to ninth place on the table. “We fought until the end today and were continually met with challenges. But we also had a few chances to score a goal,“ said Per Mertesacker. “In our phase right now with a lot of games, we have to use our opportunities. We can’t even take a rest. The result today is very disappointing. But it’s characteristic for the whole season. “ Still, despite this loss and the dreary situation, Per Mertesacker and his teammates do not want to write off the season.
“Our chances for the championship are now gone,“ joked the Finnish international Petri Pasanen, who added: “And the international spots are also pretty far away. But we cannot shut it down. We have to go into every game fully concentrated.“ And Peter Niemeyer said: “Despite the loss we are not giving up on the season. We will continue to concentrate from game to game and we want to put together as many positive performances as we can. That goes for the league and the cup competitions.“
“We wanted to build on the positive trend of the last couple weeks and improve our spot in the league. That did not happen today. But it’s bitter that the match was decided by such a debatable penalty,“ said Sebastian Boenisch. Regardless, the players finally get a break – except the Werder international players of course.
