At the Weserstadion on Friday night, Werder Bremen beat Union Berlin 1-0 to record their third victory of the season. When it was all said and done, Marco Grüll's incredible goal made the difference in a close and stressful match. Berlin took the game's opening shot. Andrej Ilic blasted a low shot after finding space near the top of the box, but it missed the goal. After that, Victor Boniface had two near misses for the home team.
Finally, in the 75th minute, Marco Grüll's magical moment brought about the breakthrough. He sprinted past the defense line, cut inside, and then curled a stunning shot off the ball's underside and into the net. Union had plenty of time to react, but they were unable to come up with anything meaningful. Every cross was easily cleared away as they slapped the ball forward aimlessly.
