Bremen turns game against Wolfsburg: drama in stoppage time!
What's going on in the Weser Stadium? A thrilling match between Werder Bremen and VfL Wolfsburg ended with a surprising 2-1 win for the hosts on November 7, 2025. The game, which took place in front of 40,500 spectators in a sold-out stadium, had everything to offer: passion, drama and a grueling conclusion.
At the beginning, Bremen dominated the game and gave Wolfsburg a lot of pressure with their offensive game. Amos Pieper had a promising chance in the 5th minute, but it remained unused. Despite their superiority, the Green-Whites initially failed to score any goals, while the Wolves took the lead out of nowhere in the 28th minute. The Swede Mattias Svanberg was there and scored the 1-0, which was an unexpected turn of events for VfL Wolfsburg, as they played defensively and rarely penetrated the Bremen penalty area, as zdfheute reports.
The pressure is increasing
In the second half, Werder Bremen stuck with it and increased the pressure. The guests from Wolfsburg, led by coach Paul Simonis, initially held firm, but the Bremen fans felt that something was still possible. Coach Horst Steffen needed fresh players and made offensive changes, bringing Victor Boniface and Samuel Mbanguka into the game.
The drama of the game increased in the final phase. In the 83rd minute, Jens Stage finally equalized for Bremen and made the fans cheer. But that wasn't all! In stoppage time, in the 90th + 4th minute, it was Samuel Mbanguka who perfected the turnaround to 2-1 with his goal. Werder Bremen secured their third home win in a row and climbed to 15 points, four points ahead of Wolfsburg, who now only have 8 points.
Coach discussion at Wolfsburg
After the defeat, Simonis is under pressure as Wolves have only managed one win from their last eight games. The discussion about his coaching position is likely to arise again now that the team has fallen far behind in the table. Bremen, on the other hand, can be optimistic about the upcoming games, especially in their next duel against RB Leipzig on Sunday.
Where is Wolfsburg heading? They host Bayer Leverkusen next week and desperately need points to regain the dwindling support among fans and the club. The exciting developments of this season remain to be seen and one thing is certain: anything is still possible in the Bundesliga! sportschau reports on the decisive upcoming games.
