Borussia Dortmund vs. Werder Bremen - Game Highlights
Watch the Game Highlights from Borussia Dortmund vs. Werder Bremen, 01/25/2025
Borussia Dortmund, under interim coach Mike Tullberg, squandered a two-goal advantage before drawing 2-2 at home to Werder Bremen on Saturday but did snap their four-game losing run across all competitions.
Dortmund parted ways with coach Nuri Sahin on Wednesday, one day after their 2-1 Champions League loss to Bologna, appointing youth coach Tullberg for the game against Werder. He will now also be in charge for next week's Champions League home game against Shakhtar Donetsk.
In an eventful debut for the Dane, the hosts suffered an early setback when Felix Nmecha went off injured and things got worse when defender Nico Schlotterbeck was sent off with a red card in the 20th minute.
But Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy headed in from close range in the 28th minute to put them in the driving seat.
The Guinea international also had a hand in their second goal when Werder's Marco Friedl turned his cutback into his own goal in the 51st minute.
The visitors, however, were given far too much space and pulled a goal back through Leonardo Bittencourt in the 65th minute. Marvin Ducksch completed the comeback with a good finish and Werder still had enough chances for a winner with Dortmund desperately hanging on for the point.
"My task was to lead the team until Saturday. Now I have the task to lead it until Wednesday," Tullberg told a news conference. "The boys put everything out there. You cannot accuse them of anything.
"I am more positive after the game than negative. We played 70 minutes with 10 players but still got a point."
Dortmund are in 10th place on 26 points and are at risk of missing out on a place in the Champions League next season.
