“I can still remember our home match against Bayer Leverkusen in the 2013/2014 season and the so-called ‘ghost goal’,” said TSG’s now managing director Alexander Rosen, who was director of professional football at the time. “When Stefan Kießling climbed high in our box in the 70th minute and headed the ball toward our goal, I saw the net bulge, but at the time, I paid particular attention to the reactions of our players and those of the opposition. I was relieved that the ball had obviously missed the target, but suddenly a Leverkusen player began to celebrate after a short time delay. I was relaxed at first, but then quite quickly I was in disbelief, because referee Dr. Felix Brych went to the halfway line and ruled it was a goal for Leverkusen.”

Thanks to a late Justin Njinmah goal, SV Werder Bremen won their Thursday evening friendly against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Ole Werner chose many players from the U23 side for his team, and the head coach praised the good work of the youngsters as he spoke to the media after the game. Captain Marco Friedl was also satisfied with the way the game played out, as well as the scoreline.

Phillip Tietz: “Even though we went into the game with higher hopes, we’ll take a point. Köln made life difficult for us and won a lot of second balls. If you factor in the home support, too, it was a tricky game. Props to our defenders, though – they were amazing today. Finn was fantastic too and he stopped them from scoring another goal. We still had good chances and can take positives from the game.”
