Highlights from the first half:
9th minute: Ducksch passes the ball back to Friedl after a blocked cross from Bittencourt, but he misses the ball in the opponent’s penalty area.
13th minute: Bochum are also getting close to Werder’s goal. Osei-Tutu in particular is receiving a lot of balls on the right. So far, however, Pavlenka has not been forced to do too much. Schlotterbeck tries his luck, but doesn’t hit the ball properly and it goes for a Werder goal kick
20th minute: Bittencourt comes down the right-hand side and plays a long ball to Jung, who is storming forward. Osei-Tutu is a few yards ahead of Jung and is able to clear the ball.
26th minute: Stöger ends up with the ball at his feet after a deflection and quickly shoots, but his shot is deflected again by Friedl and lands in Pavlenka’s hands.
29th minute: GOOALLLL! Niclas Füllkrug scores for SVW to make it 1-0! A great ball from Veljkovic is headed on by Jung to Fülle, who slots it home!
40th minute: A Ducksch corner comes off Pieper to Füllkrug, who can only connect with the end of his foot, resulting in the ball going wide of the post.
43rd minute: Niklas Schmidt scores for SVW to make it 2-0! Bittencourt plays to Jung, who picks out Schmidt excellently on the centre-right, and Schmidt doesn’t hesitate to put the ball in the bottom corner.
45th minute: Pavlenka is forced into action for the first real time in the match, but our number one is able to save. Then Kunde is brought down in the penalty area, which leads to a scuffle.
