The end of Marvin Ducksch landed on the post, the rebound Stage dusted off from a short distance. Bremen radiated great calm and clarity with the lead in the back, stood defensively and remained dangerous thanks to the fast switching game. The focus was always on stage, which was able to take undisturbed in his remarkable second goal from around 20 meters.

Union lacked the stability of the past few weeks. The Köpenickers could be covered too easily with simple means and fell several times into dangerous situations. At the end of the Oliver Burke (28th), which was allegedly strong, Frederik Rönnow had to stretch.

Union himself did not come to dangerous actions for a long time, but then the connection goal fell out of nowhere. The defender headed a cross from captain Christopher Trimmel into the goal. The goal gave Union Aufwind. Berlin suddenly pushed for equalization until the break. After the change of sides, a game developed at eye level, in which both teams pushed to goals.

The 2-0 of the Gladbacher was preceded by an attack on the right side with Honorat. Robin Hack could not use his cross, but Reitz took a heart, dribbled three opponents and scored the second goal for his team. Hoffenheim had little to offer until then. The best chance still had Hložek (13th), whose shot Borussia’s goalkeeper Jonas Omlin could parry. Shortly before the break, Gladbach’s goalkeeper was still outwitted after a corner kick. Chaves scored 1-2 from a short distance.

The connection goal visibly gave the guests a boost. After an attack on Andrej Kramarić, Bülter came to the ball in a half -left position and surprised Omlin to equalize with a shot in the long corner. But the strong fee took his chance to 3: 2 after an attack on small service to 3: 2. Hložek with a dream goal in the right corner of the goal and Tabaković with a header Hoffenheim brought the 4-3 lead, but small service saved his team in a turbulent game.
