Breaking Update: Here’s a clear explanation of the latest developments related to Breaking News:Werder Bremen 0-3 Bayern Munich: Initial reactions and Observations– What Just Happened and why it matters right now.
Initial reactions and Observations
- Bayern has won their last 16 matches away to Bremen.
- Kim Min-jae was impressive in this match. Expertly snuffed out numerous attacking moves by Werder and held the fort at the back along with Jonathan Tah.
- Speaking of which, Bremen was surprisingly energetic and came dangerously close to scoring a couple of goals but the defense with Jonas Urbig held firm and kept a clean sheet.
- Bayern looked noticeably sluggish throughout the match, and at times struggled to reorganize themselves to keep Werder from scoring.
- Harry Kane is awesome. Period.
That’s all, everyone! Bayern host Eintracht Frankfurt next week so be sure to join us here for that!
90’ — Five minutes of stoppage time added.
86’ — Harry Kane is replaced by Nicolas Jackson. Jonathan Tah looks to be the one with the armband.
76’ — Tom Bischof replaces Joshua Kimmich.
70’ — TOR! Bayern score a third goal after wonderful work from Luis Diaz and Jamal Musiala.
69’ — Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies comes on for Josip Stanisic and Serge Gnabry.
64’ — Jonas Urbig with a massive save!
63’ — Fifteen-million-euro-contract-until-2028 man Serge Gnabry missing an easy chance. Biggest scam ever.
45’ — Second half kicks off! Manuel Neuer comes off for Jonas Urbig. Don’t worry Manu everyone will remember you as a good goalkeeper.
- Joshua Kimmich is the worst player on the pitch by far. He must be replaced in the second half.
- Lennart Karl has upped his game, and it’s paying off with him winning the penalty.
- Harry Kane is on another level, singlehandedly carrying the weight of the club on his shoulders.
45’ — Four minutes added on.
40’ — Bremen get a shot off but it goes just wide of Manuel Neuer’s far post.
30’ — Luis Diaz finds himself 1v1 with the keeper but hits it straight at him.
26’ — TOR! Harry Kane gets some space outside of Werder’s box and goes for goal himself, and manages to sneak it in at the near post for 2-0.
21’ — TOR! Harry Kane makes no mistake from the spot and buries it in the Bremen net.
19-20’ — Lennart Karl is taken out in the Werder box and a penalty is given after a brief review.
14’ — Bayern slowly getting some good scoring chances, but none have been converted.
6’ — Bremen come out of the gates and surprise a, well, surprisingly sleepy Bayern side.
Kickoff! — We are off and running!
Lineups are out! Weird lineup with no freshly extended Dayot Upamecano and Aleksandar Pavlovic and Alphonso Davies sitting on the bench.
Bayern Munich stepped into unfamiliar territory by progressing into the DFB-Pokal semifinals after a 2-0 win over Leipzig. The Bavarians are looking to keep this tempo up heading into today’s match, an away day at Werder Bremen. Even though it’s Valentine’s Day there is no love lost between the two teams, except Markopolo who would probably third-wheel Bayern’s date with Bremen.
Anyways, Bayern emerged 5-1 victors at home to Hoffenheim last week and the latter is fighting for a Champions League spot. Will it be the same against Die Werderaner or will some sort of heartbreak manifest?
