Mainz – Werder Bremen can still win! At 1. FSV Mainz 05, after nine unsuccessful matches in a row, the Green-Whites achieved a very important 1-0 victory. The top scorer was Eren Dinkci, who made his Bundesliga debut. The voices of Werder head coach Florian Kohfeldt, jubilee Theodor Gebre Selassie and Co.
Florian Kohfeldt (SV Werder Bremen head coach): “The door was a relief. A draw would not have been a drama at the table, a defeat would have sunk us. With the win we were able to take a big step away from Mainz and join the lower midfield. We are also four points ahead of the relegation spot. Today we were able to reward ourselves for the stable performance of the last weeks, during which we also had to accept some injuries. We should have taken the lead in the first half, but that also shows the stability of the team. We did not go back one millimeter and I always had the feeling that we wanted to decide the game. Today we were rewarded and it was a deserved victory. “
Theodor Gebre Selassie (Werder captain): “The main thing is that we won today, that’s what makes me most happy. The 250 games are of course a good mark, but without points it would have been a completely different feeling. Now it is even more beautiful. It was a deserved victory, we were patient with the ball, we always had our chance. And then at the last minute that winning goal with a player who is not with us that often. That it lasts until the last minute is typical of our year. It was very important to us because we were able to finish the series without counting. Eren Dinkci is a good boy, he was there whenever they needed him. And today he just walked in and decided the game. It was a very important game for us because we had a not-so-pretty series without points. The series was very bitter and I am glad I ended it with victory. “
Werder Bremen voices about the game: Maxi Eggestein and company are released from a burden after beating Mainz 05
Maximilian Eggestein (Werder professional): “It’s always important to feel good about the break, even if it’s a very short year. If we hadn’t won against Mainz today the series would have been in double digits and so it feels good. All the better to have such an emotional experience at the end. I am very happy for Eren. His first game and today was very important. Eren is a laid-back and down-to-earth guy and he fitted in very well today. Not only did he score the goal, I found it remarkable how he defended the goal afterwards. The main thing is that we have won. We are now nine points ahead of Mainz and that just shows the importance. “
Alexander Hack (Mainz defender): “It hurts in a situation like this, where you think everyone has understood! At the rear, we simply have to keep to zero against a direct competitor and make better use of our moments of change at the front. Apparently not everyone wanted that 100 percent today. ”
Werder Bremen wins against Mainz 05: “Hardly fought, but we really wanted it”
Kevin Möhwald (Werder pro): “The victory feels very good. We recently had a phase with few points, so the game against a direct competitor was a key game for us. That’s why we really wanted to win and we did it. “
Marco Friedl (Werder defender): “We knew Mainz would be compact. Therefore, it was important that we move a lot to develop opportunities. As with the hit, where we meet the outside. In general, it was difficult to pass. Although we had the action under control and Mainz left us the game, it was not safe because Mainz can always be dangerous by standards.
