Another comeback to make it 2-2 – just like in Nurnberg and against Wolfsburg and Leverkusen! But this time, Werder Bremen did not wait until stoppage time and even could have won the game. Despite winning a point, head coach Thomas Schaaf did not really want to be satisfied. "Whenever there are three points available, I want all of them. Certainly we are not massively disappointed, but we did not reach our goal. We allowed quite a bit in the first half. We have to make sure that we come in and don’t take too long to get into the game," said Schaaf. "We played better with Hugo Almeida as a second striker," said Marko Marin.

 

Thomas Schaaf did not praise just the Portuguese striker Almeida, who scored to make it 2-1, but the entire team. "It was not only just Hugo. From that point, the team was playing differently and much better," said the coach. The striker himself saw things similarly. "One player alone cannot do anything, everyone is part of it," said Almeida.

 

Manager Klaus Allofs said all of Bremen’s players need to step up as the next few weeks will demand more assertiveness. "Certainly our players have to deal with the burden of three competitions and national team appearances. But still we cannot make things as easy for our opponents as today. We are in a phase in which we can move up to the fifth place. I wish we had more resolution," said Allofs.
