Events

Match Events

  • 0' The wait is over. SV Werder Bremen get us underway at Weserstadion.
  • 5' With 1 assists to his name this season, Nadiem Amiri is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Bayer 04 Leverkusen.
  • 10' The home supporters are growing impatient. SV Werder Bremen must find a spark to ignite this game.
  • 15' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
  • 20' Bayer 04 Leverkusen come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 25' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Bayer 04 Leverkusen that had 541 games and scored 751 goals.
  • 28' Assisted by Moussa Diaby with the perfectly-timed delivery and Kai Havertz makes no mistake. 0-1!
  • 30' What composure from Theodor Gebre Selassie! The Czech Republic international strokes it home. 1-1.
  • 33' What composure from Kai Havertz! The Germany international strokes it home. 1-2.
  • 38' Philipp Bargfrede has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 43' Niklas Moisander, a Finland , has 3 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 44' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Sven Bender.
  • 49' Leonardo Bittencourt has been relatively quiet despite scoring 19 goals in his last 407 appearances.
  • 54' Niklas Moisander has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 54.
  • 54' Johannes Eggestein gets the nod from SV Werder Bremen. He replaces Philipp Bargfrede and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 59' Germany international Maximilian Eggestein has been a key figure this campaign — 1 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
  • 61' Time for substitution for Bayer 04 Leverkusen. Danielzinho is replaced by Karim Bellarabi.
  • 61' What a moment for Mitchell Weiser! That strike on 61 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 62' Leon Bailey gets the nod from Bayer 04 Leverkusen. He replaces Moussa Diaby and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 67' Moussa Diaby needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
  • 71' The SV Werder Bremen manager makes a substitution. Davie Selke departs to be replaced by Nick Woltemade.
  • 75' Marco Friedl has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 75.
  • 78' Magnificent from Kerem Demirbay! That is 21 goals in 407 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 83' 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 Paulinho suffering a number of foals already.
  • 85' The crowd applauds Kevin Vogt as he leaves the pitch. Yuya Osako steps in for SV Werder Bremen.
  • 86' A tactical swap from Bayer 04 Leverkusen — Paulinho on, Charles Aranguiz off on 86 minutes.
  • Both sets of fans can go home satisfied — a 1-4 draw is a fair result on the day.
