On comes Bittencourt, hopefully he can add a spark to Werder's play.

 

Your stream is AWFULLY lagging today

It always is unfortunately.

He's been preferred to Augustinsson for several games this season, which surprises me as I am a big fan of the Swede.

It's the case of choosing mentality over quality... Well deserved, imo.

Friedl does have a great attitude, but is Augustinsson's mentality in question? 

He is usually quite consistent whenever I have watched him play. I wouldn't really blame him too much in the games were Werder have been outclassed this season. 

[Michael]

The players are getting drenched out there.

[Eco]

Friedl off, Augustinsson on.

[Eco]

OH! Best chance there, Osako's header is just a bit high.

[Michael]

On comes the Swede, hopefully he can add more of an attacking impact on the flank.

Why does that guy have a giant cow bell

I don't know, maybe he's travelled up from Switzerland.

Oh I don't blame him at all, he barely played this season, spent more than two thirds of it injured.

By mentality I mean running one's socks off, going for every ball, tackling hard, playing a bit dirty when needed; the kind of hard fights you see in relegation battle, where it often is more important than individual quality. I wouldn't mind Augustinsson starting either, but I think Friedl deserves it for his recent performances, so I'm happy for him. 

[Eco]

Sargent on!

Get one son!

[Michael]

On comes the young American forward.

Moisander is a fucking idiot. 

[Michael]

Red card for Werder!

[Eco]

Red card for Bremen.

What a stupid fucking tackle from Moisander.

An extremely stupid and unnecessary challenge. He will now miss the return leg, where Werder will need to defend at their best. I expected much more from such an experienced player like Mosiander.

[Eco]

WOW...what a disaster that almost was as the keeper drops the ball.

Yes, cleared off the line in the end, their keeper had a let off there.

[Eco]

Wow - I thought that was in....

[nudge+]

We're so pathetic.

Yeah, that header went narrowly wide. Very dangerous chance.

[Eco]

And it's over.

0-0

Kudos to Heidenheim, I've never seen them but they have some fight in them and played well against Bremen.

Still hope Bremen are able to win the second leg and remain in the Bundesliga.
