I'd probably bring Bittencourt and Selke on in place of Osako and Sargent if I was Werder manager. I am a much bigger fans of those two, they bring much more to Werder's game. Bittencourt is probably being rested for the weekend. But I hope to see him today as well.

That's all, you haven't missed anything Ah okay, was hoping for some juicy stuff like you hooked up with him and he didn't call you back. Suppose your story will do

That's all, you haven't missed anything 22 years old, transitioned straight into the Wolfsburg starting 11 and scored a potential match winning goal against a strong Leverkusen side, yes, must be crap.

As the saying goes, even a blind hen sometimes finds a grain of corn... Never said he's crap anyway. It's just unfathomable for me how crazy the market prices have become, that's it.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Andre Silva drags his shot just wide after he was put through on goal by Kamada.
Administrator Stan Posted May 26, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 26, 2020 Wolfsburg really taking the game to Leverkusen. Could have been 2 or 3 up. Tapsoba is the only defender coming out with any credit for Bayer.

It's just unfathomable for me how crazy the market prices have become, that's it. I know, I was just playing around. But in all seriousness, I think in today's market, 10 million euros is about right for a young defender who plays at this level and with the potential they deem Pongracic to have. Not saying it's right, but it's probably an accurate valuation of him in today's transfer market.

I am not surprised however that Tapsoba has been playing well. He really is a huge addition for them. I said it before, he has strengthened their defence greatly and he has made them that much stronger as a team in my opinion.

Yep he finds himself in the right positions at the right time and has definitely saved a couple of goals from going in with last ditch clearances.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Werder go close there, first with Rashica's shot and then the rebound shot. Sommer with a good double save there. Much better from Werder now.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Frankfurt now putting on the pressure. First with Kamada's shot that was saved and then moments later through Andre Silva's header from Kostic's cross that went narrowly wide.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Now Hinteregger comes forward to shoot and force another big save from Schwolow to gain a corner.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Rashica testing Sommer again. Werder have played well today, lets hope they don't cruelly lose this one.
Administrator Stan Posted May 26, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 26, 2020 Excellent save from Hradecky. Point blank but got a strong hand to it to deny Steffen.

Administrator Stan Posted May 26, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 26, 2020 2-0 to Wolfsburg! Arnold's free-kick just outside the box is deflected and wrong-foots Hradecky.
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Frankfurt with another huge chance, Dost's shot was blocked by Schwolow's legs and the rebound was volleyed over by Andre Silva with the empty net at his mercy. It wasn't the easiest of chances for Silva, but he will still have hoped to have done better.
Administrator Stan Posted May 26, 2020 Author Administrator Posted May 26, 2020 It's 3-0 to Wolfsburg! Steffen heads in from close range. Totally outjumps Wendell to head it in. He's tiny .
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Sods Law!! Freiburg take the lead! Petersen scores with a rocket header after a cross from Gunter's free-kick. Frankfurt 1-2 Freiburg

Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Freiburg score a 3rd!! This time Holer scores after he was put through by Grifo. Typical Frankfurt, for all our dominance, we find ourselves losing badly. Frankfurt 1-3 Freiburg
Michael Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 Kohr with yet another shot that goes narrowly wide. It's just not Frankfurt's day.
