Schmidt struggled to his feet quickly again, because even with the goalless draw in the second-League club can be well satisfied. "If we can have one, is it fall down and get up again. We've confirmed today,“ said Schmidt, referring not necessarily to his spontaneous knee case, but the history of the game. Heidenheim had cashed in on the last round of the regular season, a 0:3 in Bielefeld, while Bremen went with a 6:1 victory over Cologne in the back in the Relegation. However, the crucial role played in the case of lightning, Thunder and more rain.

Heidenheim surprised Werder with an unusual tactic. In defense of the club from the ALB acted with a three-chain. Bremen didn't make it through the entire season, to show the dominance that she had presented last Saturday at the Gala in the Bundesliga. Not a significant chance of the game jumped out in 95 minutes. According to coach Florian Kohfeldt was disappointed. "It was a very bad game from us," he said without hesitation. "The only advantage is that it is 0:0 at half-time. Heidenheim has scored no away goals.“

The captain is missing

And Werder managed to not Heimtor. The Bremen lost their captain. Defense man Niklas Moisander was in the final phase of an unnecessary Foul in midfield and saw the Yellow-Red card. On Monday, he is missing, therefore, in the decisive duel. "We have on Monday a final and have to shoot a goal and an unbelievable increase," said Kohfeldt and praised the opponent. "Heidenheim has it pulled brutally through. We have not done what we wanted to – purely tactical, purely football-wise. We have not played to our Plan. Of us, it was too little.“

This should not happen in Heidenheim, in the highest stadium of the German professional football, again, else there is for Bremen the crash in the second Bundesliga. Also Niklas Füllkrug, the storm hope the tradition club, who was long injured and is in the final stage of the season could intervene, had nothing good in the performance of his team. "We don't have it solved in the first half was good. In the second half we made it better, unfortunately, but then lost the thread. We can take that we are weak and strong away.“
