![]() ![]() Matters quickly picked up in the second 45 when Kerem Demirbay converted a free-kick beautifully in the 49th. To this, one needs to add Patrik Schick's crisis of confidence. Dodi Lukebakio missed another early chance and poor Hertha striker Wilfried Kanga can't seem to buy a goal. ![]() The goalless first-half seemed to confirm these fears. One area of concern remained the poor finishing ability of both these sides. Leverkusen and Hertha split the difference with a 2-2 draw at Berlin's Olympiastadion. We got a four-goal thriller from a rather unexpected place this weekend. Why, oh why, could Ducksch not "break his duck"? It didn't feel as if they deserved three points from this at all.

Newly acquired striker Mërgim Berisha worked alongside Florian Niederlechner this time with Ermedin Demirovic dropping back to the left wing in a 4-4-2. Enrico Maaßen's Fuggerstädter-it must be said-still look very poor apart. A game during which two below average sides did struggle to establish their rhythm did still somehow manage to remain entertaining. One still would have like to see Füllkrug take the penalty and convert as Bremen deserved at least a draw (2.2 xG to Augsburg's 1.7). One doesn't wish to suggest that this was the only takeaway from Friday night's Werder-Augsburg curtain raiser. Ducksch missed and we miss out on a chance to talk about more late Werder heroics.
