Behind twice, and two equalisers. SV Werder Bremen will be satisfied to take a point home with them after a 2-2 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Here are Ole Werner and the players’ reactions to the match.

After his first-ever call-up last year, Germany head coach Hansi Flick has once again called upon Niclas Füllkrug for Germany’s upcoming friendlies. Alongside the 30-year-old, Ilia Gruev (Bulgaria) and Jiri Pavlenka (Czechia) have also been called up by their retrospective national teams this international break.

Head coach Ole Werner will be without four players in the final training session ahead of the away match against Borussia Mönchengladbach (17/3 20:30 CET). While Marco Friedl, Leonardo Bittencourt and Christian Groß are still absent due to illness, Milos Veljkovic is out with muscular problems.

SV Werder Bremen travel to face Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday night (17/03/2023, 20:30 CET). After suffering back-to-back defeats and having managed 30 points from 24 games, some have started drawing parallels between the club’s relegation campaign two seasons ago and now. It’s a narrative that head coach Ole Werner disputed during the pre-match press conference on Thursday. “We have put ourselves in a strong position going into the final third of the season. We’re looking at how we will be able to be successful in our upcoming games. Our full focus is on the challenge we have, which is to prepare ourselves for a tough opponent,” he said.

Centre-back Milos Veljkovic made 104 passes in Werder’s 3-2 defeat at home to Bayer 04 Leverkusen last weekend. The 27-year-old spoke to the media at the wohninvest WESERSTADION on Wednesday afternoon (15/3) about his role in the side and the upcoming game in Mönchengladbach.

Werder Bremen lost 3-2 at home to Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday evening. SVW had more possession right from the start and showed good intensity and aggression, for which the Green-Whites were rewarded through Ducksch’s goal (30’). The guests from Leverkusen, however, were quick to reply and Bakker equalised (34’) to leave the game 1-1 at half time. In the second half, both teams created lots of chances, and Leverkusen used theirs with goals from Frimpong (56’) and Hlozek (83). Füllkrug (86’) was able to reduce the deficit from the penalty spot (86’), but in the end Werder had to accept defeat with the score 3-2.

After a hard-fought match against Bayer 04 Leverkusen, SV Werder had to accept a 3-2 defeat. Even though the Green-Whites were “just ahead” in many periods of the game, according to Ole Werner, being clinical in the penalty area made the difference between victory and defeat. Here are the reactions after the game.

SV Werder Bremen will face a tough opponent at home this weekend in Bayer 04 Leverkusen (Sunday, 12.03.2023, 17:30 CET).

They will pose a tough challenge for us,” said head coach Ole Werner.
