Werder Bremen celebrates 1-0 win against Union Berlin – team on the rise!
Things got down to business in the Volksparkstadion in Bremen on Friday evening when SV Werder Bremen accepted the challenge from Union Berlin and triumphed with a 1-0 win. Coach Horst Steffen was visibly satisfied and emphasized the importance of defensive stability. His team has already achieved two home wins with the same result so far this season, which speaks for a strong foundation.
The team is increasingly showing itself to be in top form. The defense around the central defender duo Amos Pieper and Karim Coulibaly performed strongly and did not allow any goals. Before the game, captain Marco Friedl had described the first half as “boring”, but the team’s concentration and focus, which Steffen praised, seemed to be working. “Now we have to be even more precise in attack,” said Marco Grüll, who scored the decisive goal, alluding to the challenges ahead. In the season so far, the narrow victories against defensively strong opponents such as Borussia Mönchengladbach, St. Pauli and now Union Berlin are a positive sign.

The newly motivated squad quickly picked itself up after a bumpy start to the season, which began with heavy defeats against Frankfurt and Munich. After eight games we now have 11 points, which puts a satisfied smile on the faces of those responsible at the club. Peter Niemeyer, head of professional football, is also positive about the team's development.
Despite a negative goal difference of -4, Werder Bremen have laid the foundation to position themselves in the top half of the Bundesliga table. The club is currently in solid form and can look back on a long and successful history in the Bundesliga. This season is the 61st in the top German league, an impressive sign of the continuity of the club, which occupies an excellent third place in the all-time table, as can be read on Wikipedia Wikipedia shows.
