Second half highlights:
46th minute: SVW start the half strong as Maxi Eggestein collects a long ball from deep, before turning to fire in a long-range effort but it doesn’t trouble Gikiewicz.
51st minute: Daniel Caliguiri jumps to head a good cross from the right-hand side towards goal, forcing Jiri Pavlenka into his first real test of the day. A great save!
61st minute: Kevin Möhwald passes to Maximilian Eggestein who makes a good run in the box but has his shot blocked by an Augsburg defender, and it comes to nothing.
63rd minute: Florian Niederlechner plays it across to André Hahn in the penalty area, but Marco Friedl is on hand to slide in to clear the ball for a corner.
64th minute: FCA’s Reece Oxford jumps up and heads a dangerous corner just a few inches over the crossbar.
65th minute: So close! Josh Sargent receives the ball on the right-hand side of the box and takes on the shot early. Rafal Gikiewicz is on his toes to keep out the American though, as he deflects the attempt wide of the left post with his feet.
78th minute: Marco Friedl attempts an effort from outside the box, but his effort too far off target to worry the keeper.
84th minute: GOAL FOR WERDER! Jean-Manuel Mbom lays the ball off to Felix Agu, who crosses it from the left-hand side to the far post. It lands perfectly with Theodor Gebre Selassie, who reacts brilliantly to meet it first-time and put the Green-Whites ahead with a magnificent finish! Advantage Werder!
87th minute: GOAL FOR WERDER! Werder double their lead in less than three minutes! Romano Schmid does well to keep the ball in on the sideline before exchanging a one-two with Maxi Eggestein. The young Austrian whips in a great cross and finds Felix Agu in space at the back post, who converts to put Kohfeldt’s team two goals up!
90+2 minute: Jiri Pavlenka makes himself big to earn his clean sheet, as he keeps out Florian Niederlechner.
