It will be the biggest game in the club’s history and the Bremen women are even happy about their outsider role on Thursday at 4 p.m. – they want more.
Each team has their own rituals in order to keep up with the mood before an important game or the nervousness. Werder Bremen’s footballers have the biggest game in the club’s history on Thursday at 4 p.m., their first cup final and also against the champions of Bayern Munich.
So how is it going in the Bremen cabin? Rather meditation or Ballermann hits from the speakers? Neither of the two, as Sharon Beck reveals. “We have a puzzle in the cabin, determined 1,000 parts and it was worked directly. Each individual player was happy to participate. That reflects this team for me. We will also tackle the cup game.
How to follow Werder’s cup final on May 1st live:
- The first Transfer the cup final live from 3:40 p.m.

At least 4,500 Werder fans-and many relatives
Captain Lina Hausicke had the idea of having a photo of her jubilee pose made with all players as a puzzle at the final in Hamburg. “That was the real topic in our cabin that this puzzle will be finished before the final and not the party or the town hall reception.”
So puzzles as a kind of original team building, as a common anticipation and focus on the game of the games, which has been causing goose bumps for weeks. 44,000 fans will be in the Cologne stadium on Thursday, at least 4,500 of them Werder fans. And a number of relatives of the players.
Juliane Wirtz brings her parents and most of her nine siblings. “For me, a whole fan bus comes from the Allgäu, I had to organize 30, 40 tickets,” says Verena again at Bremen.
Favorite Bayern “plays with a backpack”
Werder’s footballers in the cup final, that had never been done in the Bremen club history. It should be a green and white football party, either way. The pressure, the Werder people are sure, have their opponents from Munich, who had just got the championship title again.
“I believe that there is a risk to Bayern because they have to be a favorite,” explains Werder player again: “And if you have to, it is more and more difficult. You feel like you play with a backpack. And we can just play, are free of pressure, enjoy it, have fun and have Bavaria at maximum.”
“It would be an extreme success”
Finale – Werder’s footballers played in Hamburg in front of a record set of 57,000 spectators.
The Bremen women don’t want to do too small in their outsider role either. “We also played a great season and crowned a historic season with a points record on the last match day,” adds: “So I think that we can also go into play with a lot of confidence. The anticipation is huge.”
For both teams, history resonates on Thursday, the Bayern hope for the first double ever. The Bremeners could still crown their success with the first cup victory. “You would lie if you say that you haven’t even dreamed of letting this trophy at some point at 6 p.m. and 7 p.m.. We are all athletes through and through,” said again, “it would be an extreme success because Bavaria would go into this game as a crystal -clear favorite.”
But no matter how the game ends for the Werder people, in Bremen the red carpet will be rolled out on Friday. There is a Senate reception in the town hall for the team. “This is incredibly cool for us that we get such an appreciation from the city of Bremen,” says again. The joy would be all the greater if you could cheer the Cup in your hand from the town hall balcony. In any case, it would be a nice motif for a new team puzzle.
