After the 3:0 there were ten minutes in which Borussia was the better team. But then Bremen recovered and had several top-class chances. The 4:0 was only a matter of time.

Koné comes too late in midfield against Schmid and sees a yellow card for it.

Tooor for Werder Bremen, 4: 0 by Ramy Bensebaini (own goal)
It’s getting more and more bitter for Gladbach. Ducksch crosses the back post from the left. There is actually no Bremen player there, but Bensebaini tries to clear the ball with the hoe. The attempt completely backfires and ends up untenable for Sommer in their own goal.
35
19:08
Again, Bremen takes a short corner. This time the variant ends in a long-range shot by Weiser. The ball goes a few meters over the goal. But the variants of the hosts are definitely rehearsed.
34
19:07
The following corner is executed briefly. Schmid crosses from the left corner of the penalty area to the second post. Veljković just misses the ball.
33
19:06
Weiser brings the next strong cross from the right into the middle. Schmid ducks under the ball at the near post. But there is no player behind him. A defender clears for a corner.
31
19:04
Bremen always manages to overplay Gladbach’s pressing with simple long balls. In midfield, Füllkrug then gets the ball and Werder has space. The guests should come up with something. It’s playing with fire.
29
19:02
Ducksch misses the 4:0 by a hair’s breadth. Groß plays a good long ball down the path of Weiser. The full-back brings the perfect cross in front of the goal from the right. Ducksch has infinite space ten meters in front of the box. He heads the ball just past the right post. It really should have been 4-0.
27
19:00
Ducksch has the next chance for Bremen. Weiser plays a great cross from the right half-field in the direction of the penalty area. Ducksch takes the ball directly from 16 meters with his head. Summer is graduating.
24
18:56
Gladbach has significantly more ball possession in this phase. Bremen has withdrawn a little.
22
18:54
It’s been a wild game so far. It could have been 4:2. Bremen is well advised to bring in a little calm here.
20
18:53
Scally has the next top chance for the foals. The full-back is sent into the penalty area on the right and approaches Pavlenka alone. He could center on Thuram, instead he finishes himself. Bremen’s keeper remains stable and saves the shot from close range.
18
18:51
Kramer has a great chance to make it 1:3. The world champion gets a long ball down the run after a corner. He appears clear in front of Pavlenka, but volleys wide to the left of the goal.
16
18:49
Jung has the next big chance for Werder. The full-back lets Weigl step out of the six-yard box and then shoots at goal with his left hand from close range. It hits Sommer’s torso, who saves the ball.

Tooor for Werder Bremen, 3:0 by Niclas Füllkrug
What’s going on here? It’s 3-0 after 13 minutes. A long ball from Pavlenka lands on Bensebaini, who extends his head into Ducksch’s run. The striker goes into the penalty area on the left. Shortly before the goal he lets Elvedi get out with a hook and then puts it in the middle on the free filling jug, which pushes in from a short distance.
12.
18:44
Borussia is finally coming forward. Thuram crosses from the left to the middle. Friedl clears the throw-in.
10
18:43
The initial phase is surprisingly one-sided. Gladbach wasn’t even really in Bremen’s half with the ball and it was already 2-0. But Bremen is also very effective again.

Tooor for Werder Bremen, 2:0 by Marvin Ducksch
That’s 2-0 for the home side. Gladbach is completely taken by surprise. Ducksch plays a good pass to Schmid after Koné lost the ball. The Austrian tries to get past Sommer, but the keeper knocks the ball off his foot. The ball lands in the backcourt at Ducksch, who shoots from 16 meters with his left into the empty goal.

Tooor for Werder Bremen, 1:0 by Niclas Füllkrug
Gladbach still wasn’t really on the ball and Bremen took the lead. Schmid lets Koné stand on the right corner of the penalty area with a good hook. Then he crosses to the second post with his left. That’s where Füllkrug comes in and sinks the ball with his right foot as he falls.
4.
18:37
Ducksch’s corner from the right is cleared by a defender at the near post. The second ball lands on Weiser, who plays a bad pass into goal.

18:35
In the first few minutes, the ball is only between the penalty areas. Bremen initially has more ball possession.
18:01
Daniel Farke sees no reason for changes after the strong 3-0 win against RB Leipzig. He sends the same starting eleven as two weeks ago.
18:01
Compared to the 1-1 draw against Leverkusen before the international break, Ole Werner has changed one position at Bremen. Niklas Stark stands in for Amos Pieper, who has been suspended, in the back three.
17:50
Today’s guests from Gladbach have shown strong performances against top teams in recent weeks. A point was scored in Munich, a point in Freiburg and even a three-pointer against Leipzig. However, the foals found it difficult against the rather smaller opponents. It was only enough for a draw against Schalke and Daniel Farke’s team even lost against Mainz. With a win against Bremen today, Borussia would draw level with BVB and Bayern on points.
17:46
Werder made a good start to the season. The promoted team was in tenth place after seven games with nine points. Especially the way Bremen performs gives hope for a carefree season. Ole Werner’s team has already scored 13 goals. That was the fourth best value after the last matchday. However, the SVW has to stabilize its defense. There were only three clubs that conceded more goals than Bremen.
17:31
Hello and welcome to the evening game of the 8th match day of the Bundesliga. Today at 18:30 Borussia Mönchengladbach is a guest at Werder Bremen.
