The fans in the Weser Stadium recently sang about the European Cup, fourth place in the Champions League is only one win away – but Werder Bremen’s coach Ole Werner keeps the ball flat before the Bundesliga guest game on Friday (8:30 p.m. / DAZN) at 1899 Hoffenheim.
“I will not and cannot tell anyone what they want or have to dream. But we will definitely try to play offensively and become dangerous in all phases of the game,” said the coach of the promoted team, who has so far been particularly committed to moving forward convince knows.
Only record champions Bayern Munich have scored more goals than the Hanseatic League. Niclas Füllkrug alone scored seven goals, strike partner Marvin Ducksch scored five goals – both current Bundesliga bests. The newcomer still has a lot of respect for the fifth-placed player from Kraichgau. Werner: “Hoffenheim are right where they are.”
But even the hosts do not see the game against the former European Cup winner as a sure-fire success. TSG coach Andre Breitenreiter: “The Bremen team have a very clear style of play, which makes them strong at the moment.”
And the 49-year-old knows only too well about the qualities of the filling jug, which he once coached at Hannover 96. “Niclas is also an interesting personality for the World Cup. But nobody has to help Hansi Flick on the jumps,” said Breitenreiter.
