Match report

Werder stage dramatic comeback to edge Augsburg at Weser Stadium

Werder Bremen came from two goals down to beat Augsburg 3-2 in a Bundesliga match that turned on its head in the final quarter. The hosts, who sat sixth with seven points after four games, needed every bit of grit to survive a visit from the visitors, who occupied fourth place with the same tally. To be fair, the visitors had looked the more dangerous side for long spells, but Werder's experience in these tight affairs showed through. Augsburg took the lead when Fellhauer fired home at the 18th minute, capitalising on a moment of space in the penalty area. They doubled their advantage shortly after the break when Brackelmann found the back of the net in the 58th minute, and it appeared the visitors were heading for a rare away victory. And here's the thing — Werder had been patient, waiting for their moment rather than chasing the game recklessly. Grüll pulled one back for the hosts in the 66th minute after Augsburg began to show signs of fatigue, and suddenly the atmosphere at the Weser Stadium shifted. The home side kept knocking on the door, and Füllkrug equalised in the 86th minute with a well-taken finish. By then, the visitors had switched to a back three in a desperate bid to hold on, but Werder had nothing to lose. Weiser struck the winner in the 90th minute plus three, and the stadium erupted as the hosts completed their remarkable turnaround. Werder had 11 shots on target compared to Augsburg's four, but it was their clinical edge in the closing stages that made the difference. The statistics tell only part of the story — possession sat at 66% for the hosts, but they had to weather a storm before turning it around. Both sides now sit on seven points after four matches, though the psychological boost of this victory will serve Werder well. The result keeps them within touching distance of the European places, while Augsburg will rue a performance that lacked composure when it mattered most. They have kept three clean sheets on the spin in their last five games before this one, but tonight their defence simply switched off at the crucial moment.
