  • 10' 1. FSV Mainz 05 are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
  • 15' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 20' Jerry St. Juste is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for SV Werder Bremen tonight.
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' SV Werder Bremen started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 30.
  • 35' Cameroon international Pierre Kunde has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 40' It’s high time Florian Kohfeldt made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 45' 1. FSV Mainz 05 currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
