After the setback in Wolfsburg, Werder now needs real stress killers

SV Werder Bremen does not want to let the spectacular 3: 5 defeat against VfL Wolfsburg get them down.

Florian Kohfeldt and his players believe after six games without a win in a U-turn against VfB Stuttgart.

The follow-up report of the DeichStube *.

Bremen - During the bus trip back to Bremen,

watched

football.

But on the autobahn between Wolfsburg and home, the repeat of the crazy-turbulent 3: 5 of

at VfL

did not run on Saturday night

- no, Kohfeldt had put a stick with VfB Stuttgart games in his notebook.

So already preparing for the next game, which will be so important for SV Werder.

Because after the negative end of their own series of draws, it is absolutely clear before the home game against the promoted team (Sunday, 3:30 p.m.) that three points will have to go back to Bremen.

"It would be very good if we won a game again - especially to keep the gap downwards stable," said Kohfeldt, who

felt a turmoil in two respects

after the eight-goal spectacle at

.

Werder Bremen coach Florian Kohfeldt after six games without a win: "Have lost the first time in two months"

On the one hand because of the game itself.

Breathtaking game, devastating result - the fans on the TV, said the Bremen coach, "it was certainly fun".

Less to himself.

What was due to the five goals conceded and the resulting new situation.

After seven games without a defeat,

lost again for the first time - and because the last five of the seven non-defeats were each a draw, a new series began with the end of the old one: Werder have suddenly been without a win for six games.

The evaluation of the results of the last few weeks may have changed for one or the other, but

pleads for

with his interpretation: “We lost again for the first time in two months.

Can't we agree on that? "

You can.

But it does not change anything that also moves Kohfeldt and leads to the other conflict.

Because of course he does not want to allow a negative interpretation of the number of points in the last few weeks, he wants to see progress and successes in it, but he also reads the table and realizes: “The distance below is not such that you cannot slip into something within two game days. "A comeback of fear of relegation could in turn slow the development of the team - and that must be prevented, according to Kohfeldt:" We don't want to get a stress factor that we can't use. "

Don't slip in: Werder Bremen want to be in the middle of the Bundesliga table

The stress zone begins for Werder sports director

with 13th place,

i.e.

the lower third, from which

would like to stay away.

“The table was formed after the first phase of the season.

In the top third are the teams that were expected there - with the exception of Union Berlin.

Below are the teams with problems.

And our goal is to get stuck in the middle third, ”says the manager.

At the moment, this goal is in jeopardy, Werder slumped from ninth to eleventh place on matchday nine and can tumble to twelfth place with a win by 1899 Hoffenheim at Mainz 05 on Sunday evening.

At the end of the middle third.

The stress is therefore already at the Bremen door - unless the hoped-for victory succeeds on Sunday against the strong and currently equal points promoted from Stuttgart.

And ideally, in the subsequent games against the top teams from Leipzig and Dortmund, small or large successes will also succeed.

That would be real stress killers.

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg: "No dramatic performance setback"

However, no one can deny the risk that it will work the other way round, but Werder does not want to be dictated how to deal with it.

Baumann sees it this way: “Nobody said it would be an easy season for us.

But we will always resist negative developments.

You saw that in Wolfsburg too.

So I'm not really worried about the team. "

The team itself sees it that way too.

Nobody dared to casually dismiss the five-pack from Friday evening as a slip-up, but the defeat did not shake anyone at Werder.

"We are more stable this season and we shouldn't let this one game get us down," said midfielder

.

“I don't think defeat will throw us back.

As I see ourselves, we will shake it off, ”confirmed team-mate

.

And Kohfeldt?

He didn't need a video study of the 3: 5 to be able to commit himself clearly and without any inner conflict: “It wasn't a game that had to be followed by a swan song.

I don't classify that in the category of dramatic performance setbacks. "(Csa)

Further to the follow-up report of SV Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg:

Furious, but not furious enough: Werder Bremen struggled with attack and defense after the eight-goal spectacle in Wolfsburg

Wolfsburg - 5: 3 - actually, there

should never

have been this result between

and

.

Neither team (Wolfsburg) stood for goals in assembly line production in the past few weeks, nor for blatant defensive weaknesses (Werder).

And neither team even came close to playing

.

On the contrary: With five draws in each of the previous eight games, both clubs had delivered more yawning than glamor football.

But then the furious Friday!

Werder Bremen: Showpiece defense shows no stability against VfL Wolfsburg

Eight goals, but unfortunately unevenly distributed, which is why

furious was not furious enough in the end.

"A 5: 5 would have been possible," said the

coach

in retrospect of a game, the analysis of which did not pose any major challenges for him, because it is taken for granted with five goals conceded made, and that was the defense. "

Strange, because the defense had developed into a showpiece in Bremen since the 4-1 defeat against Hertha BSC at the start of the season.

Between that 1: 4 and the fresh 3: 5 there were seven games in which

on the one hand never lost and on the other never conceded more than one goal per game.

Why

this stability could not be seen

at

, Kohfeldt then led a deeper investigation into the cause.

It was a problem “in the area of ​​group and individual tactics”, explained the coach in technical jargon.

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg: Offensive "maybe the best season performance", but defensive "too cheap"

But that should mean nothing else than that his players in and around their own penalty area were not handy enough: “We were outnumbered in all goals except the fifth near the ball.

But it was a bit as if one had relied on the other. ”VfL came relatively easily to goals from Ridle Baku (22nd), John Anthony Brooks (25th),

(37th and 76th) .) and Bartosz Bialek (90th + 5).

Leonardo Bittencourt (13th), Kevin Möhwald (36th) and Brooks scored the goals with an own goal (47th)

for

.

“Offensive”, praised Kohfeldt, “it was perhaps our best performance of the season.” But as many goals as were allowed at the back could not be scored at the front.

"The goals we conceded were too cheap, we definitely gave the game away," lamented defender Ömer Toprak.

This could be demonstrated by examples such as the Wolfsburg 2: 1, when Josip Brekalo was not prevented by Milot Rashica, Bittencourt or Theo Gebre Selassie on the flank on Brooks.

not only saw in this case: “We were there, but we didn't really die.

You can't defend like that. ”If you do it anyway, you'll get five.

Werder Bremen: Coach Florian Kohfeldt struggles with the exploitation of opportunities against VfL Wolfsburg

The weakness in the crucial moments is all the less understandable, since

otherwise played with full commitment.

The fire of passion burned bright and hot in the square.

And it would not have been undeserved if Werder had taken the lead when the score was 3: 3 through Rashica (59th), Bittencourt (64th) or Yuya Osako (69th).

Kohfeldt therefore quarreled, just as he had had a week before after the 1-1 draw against FC Bayern: “It was more possible for us again.

We score three goals in Wolfsburg, but actually have to do more - that's funny.

We cannot be satisfied

with the

.

The high art is to be effective even in absolute stress. "

mastered this art

perfectly, so they scored as many goals against Werder as they did in the first six games of the season combined, which put a satisfied smile on coach Oliver Glasner's face: "This game was a great spectacle." And a completely unexpected one at that.

To the match report from November 27, 2020:

The crazy end of a series - Werder Bremen loses the peat festival at VfL Wolfsburg

SV Werder Bremen lost an insane Bundesliga game at VfL Wolfsburg 3: 5 (2: 3).

The game report of the DeichStube *.

Wolfsburg - The series is broken, but in a pretty crazy game: After seven games without defeat and five 1-1 in a row,

conceded

an annoying 3-5 (2-3) bankruptcy at

on Friday evening

.

Kevin Möhwald saw the traffic light card (80th) and is therefore missing in the next game against VfB Stuttgart.

Ridle Baku (22nd), John Anthony Brooks (25th), Wout Weghorst (37th and 76th) and Bartosz Bialek (90th + 5) scored for Wolfsburg, while the Bremen goals went to Leonardo Bittencourt (13th). ), Kevin Möhwald (36th) and Brooks (47th own goal).

Werder coach

had made two changes in the starting

compared to the strong performance in the 1-1 draw against FC Bayern - one of them involuntarily: Yuya Osako stormed for Josh Sargent, who was injured in easy training that morning, and for Kevin Möhwald was allowed to run

from the start.

Werder started very defensively, but then struck freezing in the 13th minute.

Osako stole the ball from Maxence Lacroix and served

, who scored his third goal of the season.

Everything went according to plan, Kohfeldt's defensive tactics also worked with a slightly different line-up: Mbom defended on the right, Gebre Selassie inside, Christian Groß moved into midfield.

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg: Joker Kevin Möhwald hits one in half time

But then the courageous

all people acted

far too passively in front of the penalty area against

, who scored 1-1 from 16 meters (22nd

).

And John Anthony Brooks promptly headed the 2: 1 (25th).

Ludwig Augustinsson hadn't bothered him decisively.

However, Milot Rashica and Bittencourt also had to put up with the same accusation when they played against template provider Josip Brekalo.

Kohfeldt responded.

Mbom, whom the Wolfsburg team had picked out as a weak point, had to go down not only because of that, but also because of his early yellow card,

(32nd)

came for him

.

A good move, because

joker

immediately struck when he headed an Augustinsson corner from the short post into the far corner - 2-2 (36th).

Kohfeldt couldn't believe his eyes on the sidelines.

And not just because of the compensation.

Because only 77 seconds later,

the hosts back into the lead (37th).

Almost everyone in Bremen was still in jubilation mode.

What a crazy game that should be even more awesome right after the break.

Because Brooks unluckily promoted a cross from Milot Rashica into his own goal - 3: 3 (47th).

A shock for

, which quickly shook itself and ran up again.

Only the wolves found hardly any solutions to crack the Bremen bulwark.

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg: Wout Weghorst with double pack, Kevin Möhwald with dismissal

But

not only stood in the back

against

, but also used the regular ball win for their own attacks - and even had better opportunities.

First Rashica (59th), then Bittencourt aimed from a good half position exactly at keeper Koen Casteels (64th).

For both of them it was time to end in the 71st minute, Kohfeldt bet on the youth, brought in Tahith Chong (20 years) and Felix Agu (21).

At this stage things looked really good for the guests, until the monster was back.

Weghhorst headed the 4: 3 not only because of his 1.97 meters height, but also because Friedl did not attack him at all.

How annoying - and things got even worse for Bremen.

Möhwald, who had already been warned, only knew how to help himself with a tactical foul after his bad pass and saw yellow-red (80th).

Despite being outnumbered,

tried

everything.

Davie Selke and Nick Woltemade came for the offensive.

And it actually still existed - the chance to equalize.

But the ex-Bremen Casteels defused Augustinsson's free kick with his fists (90th).

In the end, even keeper

with them.

But it didn't help, Bialek used a counterattack to make it 5: 3 (90th + 5).

The second Bremen defeat of the season after the 1: 4 at the start against Hertha BSC was perfect.

A small setback, but nothing more.

Against a contender for the international places Werder had delivered an entertaining game with a lot of passion and sniffed at the point.

However, as beautiful as peat festivals are, so many goals shouldn't become standard.

Werder Bremen:

Pavlenka - Mbom (32nd Möhwald), Gebre Selassie, Toprak, Friedl, Augustinsson - Groß (85th Woltemade) - M. Eggestein, - Bittencourt (71st Agu), Osako (85th Selke), Rashica (72nd place) . Chong).

69th min:

huge thing for Osako: Bittencourt wins the ball on the right, crosses on Rashica which deposits it via breast Osako.

He, however, with his back to the goal, waits and waits and then loses the ball instead of locking it.

68.Min:

VfL sets the tone in terms of playfulness, Werder is now in good shape and lurks on the counterattack - this creates opportunities like those of Bittencourt.

64th min:

Now Werder!

Rashica is sent, but slows down and then loses the ball at the penalty area. Then Eggestein, who is still strong today, wins the ball back and sticks in the depths of Bittencourt.

His shot is too central, which is why Casteels can block the ball and then pick it up.

63rd Min:

The game is currently relatively calm, although the wolves are more active and more offensive.

59.Min:

Good attack from Werder: Bittencourt fits Rashica, who pulls in and can also pull off quite undisturbed - his shot just misses to the left.

57th Min:

Möhwald receives the yellow card after a tactical foul on Brekalo.

56.Min

And the next shot: Arnold can pull it relatively freely from a distance - the ball rushes past the right post.

Werder has to be more alert!

Bremen are a bit passive on the defensive and so Brekalo can pull off from 25 meters - Pavlenka holds the powerful, but central ball.

46th Min:

Second half is on!

9:33 p.m .:

The teams are running in again, and things will continue soon.

9:24 p.m.:

Werder started defensively stable, hardly allowed anything and took the lead through Bittencourt after Osako had taken the ball strongly.

After that, Wolfsburg was really turned up, Werder let themselves be rolled over and the hosts were able to turn the game around within three minutes.

After that, Werder had a hard time, which is why the change from Mbom made sense.

The substitute Möhwald then made for the somewhat surprising 2: 2.

Not even two minutes later, however, the wolves took the lead again - only to be explained with inattentiveness by the Bremen back team.

The leadership is completely fine - the green-whites have to improve if something is to go here.

It will continue in a few minutes.

9:18 p.m.:

The one minute of stoppage time is over, it goes into the dressing room.

45th min:

Wolfsburg again!

Bremen are now increasingly appearing in the Wolfsburg half, but without coming dangerously in front of the goal.

43.Min:

Curious: There were only five shots fired on goal - as everyone knows, they were all in.

37.Min:

Immediately after the kick-off, the wolves play over to the right - Brekalo brings the ball into the middle, where Mehmedi forwards it directly to Weghorst, who then immediately stops the box.

Pavlenka without a chance - 3-2!

36th Min:

One after the other: Augustinsson kicked the corner mentioned and Möhwald, who probably wanted to extend, heads the ball from the edge of the box into the far corner, amazing thing!

...

Möhwald comes for him.

Gebre Selassie is back on the right and Groß is in central defense.

30.Min:

Bremen now back in front - but so far no danger after the goals.

28.Min:

Werder let themselves be rolled over after the 1-0 lead - Wolfsburg did a lot for it, but at least one thing could have been prevented.

Now Werder is trying to calm the game down again and pull it over to their side.

25.Min

Mbom gives away a free kick to the left of the penalty area.

Arnold crosses in, Brooks prevails against Augustinsson, who defends only half-heartedly, and heads the ball into the left corner to lead.

25.Min: Goal for Wolfsburg!

Brooks scores 2-1!

22.Min:

First of all, Werder defends it tightly and well - several flat crosses are blocked and cleared, even if these were already dangerous.

Then Baku comes running from the half-field into the middle, is hardly disturbed, pulls off centrally from 20 meters and scores to 1: 1!

22.Min: Goal for Wolfsburg!

Baku scores to equalize 1: 1!

20.Min:

There is a lot of bite in the game - even the green-whites do everything to get in front of the opposing goal.

17.Min:

The wolves react provoked by the goal and want to equalize.

Werder has freed themselves and is also looking for the way forward.

The passing game has gotten a lot better.

13.Min:

Werder stood up, Osako goes aggressively to the right of the penalty area on the Wolfsburg defender and wins the ball. Then he plays the ball sharp and flat in the middle, where Bittencourt only has to hammer the thing in from three meters!

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg in the live ticker: Leonardo Bittencourt puts Werder in the lead!

13.Min: Goooooor for Werder!

Bittencourt with the 1: 0 !!

11.Min

There are also some unnecessary bad passes sneaking into the game of the green-whites.

As a result, the Wolfsburg have come to some flanks.

If Bremen can solve that better, they can play their way forward dangerously.

9.Min:

Werder is quite low and the hosts press up.

However, Werder usually does a pretty good job of calmly playing the ball out.

So far, they have not been on the offensive, but they have not yet given a chance.

5.Min:

VfL so far with significantly more possession of the ball, but without getting behind the chain.

Now there was a cross, but it was headed out - then Pavlenka has the ball.

Werder Bremen versus VfL Wolfsburg - coach Florian Kohfeldt demands: "Don't show a millimeter less focus and attention"

SV Werder Bremen will play away against VfL Wolfsburg on the ninth matchday of the Bundesliga.

Trainer Florian Kohfeldt expects a "very, very big challenge" on Friday.

The preliminary report of the DeichStube *.

Bremen - The requirement is clear and clearly stated to the team: “Take self-confidence with you, but don't show a millimeter less focus and attention!” With this assignment, Florian Kohfeldt, SV

coach, sends

his players a week after the convincing 1: 1 at FC Bayern Munich on Friday evening (8.30 p.m.,

from DeichStube) in the away game at

, because the 38-year-old knows that it will be “a very, very big challenge for us”.

Werder Bremen: Opponent VfL Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga without defeat

Besides Bayer 04 Leverkusen, Wolfsburg, who are currently sixth in the table with 14 points, are the only team in the league to be unbeaten.

"There are hardly any weaknesses to be recognized in this team," says

, praising the pressing, the switching behavior and the "very good individual quality" of the "wolves".

Particular attention from Bremen will be on Wolfsburg's top striker Wout Weghorst.

Kohfeldt: "The one-on-one duel with him is definitely one of the central duels in this game."

On the other hand, the

coach is of

course aware that his team does not have to hide at the moment - after all, Werder has not lost in seven games.

"We have seen in the last few weeks that when we reach our limit in terms of aggressiveness, attention and courage, it is very uncomfortable to play against us," said Kohfeldt.

That worked wonderfully in the game at Bayern.

Werder Bremen against VfL Wolfsburg: Another 1-1 draw would be a Bundesliga record

Now

the long 1: 1 series in Bremen should finally end

at

.

"I'm almost a little embarrassed to be associated with this series," said Kohfeldt, whose team has played 1-1 five times in a row.

If the game in Wolfsburg ends with this result, it would be a new

.

"That is definitely not our goal," assured the coach.

He's not expecting a lot of goals and an open exchange of blows in Wolfsburg.

The previous appearances of both teams in the current season would not promise that.

Wolfsburg coach Oliver Glasner made a very similar statement.

"It will be a tough nut to crack," he said before the duel against

.

And further: "Not only the respectable success of the Bremen team in Munich shows that they are in a very good mood at the moment." (Dco) Also interesting: You can watch Werder Bremen's Bundesliga match against VfL Wolfsburg live on TV and live -Stream.
