Events
Match Events
- 0' 1. FC Union Berlin have kicked off against SV Werder Bremen. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
- 2' A stunning finish from Jens Stage — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 7' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Ole Werner will be considering his options from the bench.
- 12' Supporters expect more eagerness from Felix Agu, as he is very good at scoring at An der Alten Forsterei with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 15' What a strike from Jens Stage! The score is 0-2.
- 20' The energy levels are beginning to show. Ole Werner might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 25' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 30' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Benedict Hollerbach suffering a number of foals already.
- 35' 1. FC Union Berlin are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 37' Assisted by Christopher Trimmel with the perfectly-timed delivery and Tom Rothe makes no mistake. 1-2!

- 62' That looks like a foul for a card for Kevin Vogt.
- 67' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering SV Werder Bremen that had 425 games and scored 392 goals.
- 72' The 1. FC Union Berlin bench stirs into life. Janik Haberer is withdrawn and Tim Skarke gets his opportunity.
- 74' The crowd applauds Marvin Ducksch as he leaves the pitch. Marco Grull steps in for SV Werder Bremen.
- 79' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
