Second-half highlights:
51st minute: Schmid delivers a cross into the middle of the park, as it falls at Marvin Ducksch’s feet. The striker is just a second too late to get on the end of it.
53rd minute: This time, it’s Agu that plays in a cross from the left side of the park. Ducksch is there to meet it with his head, but sends the ball just over the bar.
58th minute: There’s the equaliser! Agu does well to switch the ball to Weiser, who has time to deliver an inch-perfect cross to the back post. Substitute Justin Njinmah times his run perfectly to nod home Werder’s second of the afternoon.
70th minute: Essende has the ball in the back of the net again, but the goal is under review.Upon consulting with VAR,the goal is disallowed as the striker was judged to have touched the ball with his hand prior to scoring.
72nd minute: Werder counter quickly after winning possession following an FCA corner. Njinmah sends Ducksch through on goal, as the striker looks to nutmeg Labrovic, but the goalkeeper is able to make the save.
77th minute: The referee consults VAR after a potential handball in the box from Jung. Upon review, his original call to not award Augsburg a penalty stands.
90th minute +5: Full time. FC Augsburg and SV Werder Bremen share the spoils after a 2-2 draw to open the season.
