This point belongs to Sebastian Mielitz! The Werder keeper helped his team take a step away from the relegation fight with a strong performance. The 23-year-old keeper saved at least three 100 per cent chances for Mainz in the 1-1 draw.
"I had looked back so often and saw the certain 2-0 in the net, but then Miele still got a hand or his foot on the ball," said Nils Petersen. "He kept us in the game, just like in the last away match in Gladbach. It's nice that we could at least reward him with one point by getting the decisive score," said the striker. The first person to congratulate Mielitz after the final whistle was manager Thomas Eichin. "I wanted to show him that he is an excellent support, that he made the point possible," said Eichin. "Miele only showed today what we have known for months, that he is a young, very good keeper who has done a very good job in his first season," added head coach Thomas Schaaf.
That did Werder's No. 1 really good. But the keeper was also confident enough to know that he had a major role in Werder's third straight game without a loss. "Today everyone could see that I deserve to wear No. 1," said Mielitz after the match.
