Werder have taken a big step towards ending the season in a European place after beating Mainz 3-1 at home. Milot Rashica put the Green-Whites into an early lead after rounding the goalkeeper, and Kruse added another before half time with a fiercely struck volley. Rashica was provider for Kruse to get his brace in the second half, after Quaison had pulled a goal back for the visitors. Werder are up into sixth place following the win.
