Late goal from Burke: Werder celebrates their first home win of the season!
A dramatic end in the Weserstadion! Werder Bremen secured a late 2-1 win in the thrilling northern duel against Holstein Kiel. The hero of the game? Oliver Burke, who scored the decisive goal with a header in the 89th minute, securing the first home win of the season. The fans were over the moon while Kiel remained stuck in the bottom of the table.
The game was on a knife edge for a long time. After Jens Stages took the lead in the first half, Kiel equalized through Phil Harres after the break. But when the spectators were already expecting a draw, Burke jumped up and catapulted the ball into the net. A moment of pure ecstasy for Bremen, while Kiel no longer had a chance to strike back.
Match winner Burke: “An incredible feeling”
Burke, who recently returned to the team, was overjoyed: "It's an incredible feeling. I'm so happy for the team that helped me a lot." Coach Ole Werner praised him for his performances in recent weeks and emphasized that Burke deserved this victory. Kiel's coach Marcel Rapp, however, was disappointed about the late goal conceded, but was optimistic about the coming games.
The statistics speak for themselves: Werder Bremen not only thrilled the fans with this victory, but also reduced the pressure on the team. The goals came in the 36th minute from Stage, in the 48th minute from Harres and finally in the 89th minute from Burke. A game that will go down in the history books!
