Davie Selke plopped beforehand in his hands, as he took the Position shortly before the five-meter space. It was probably meant as encouragement for his goalkeeper Rune Jarstein. And of course, as a prompt to keep this Ball. The officially indicated stoppage time of four minutes had already passed as Werder Bremen was on the verge of the penalty area from Hertha BSC to the free kick ready. Some pointed to the fact that Max would try to Kruse, the Ball with his left foot over the wall would swings – but then Claudio Pizarro to delivery, through the shot the Ball flat with the right side through the porous wall and actually hit 1:1-end.

“Pizarro is a phenomenon,” said his colleague, Maximilian Eggestein. “In such a Play, he just helps us.” It was a historic Moment, the 49.627 experienced in Berlin’s Olympic stadium. The Peruvians is now 40 years and 136 days, the oldest goalscorer in the history of the Bundesliga. In addition, he stopped the serial killer from Berlin, who were after the third goal of the season by Davie Selke in the first half, on the verge of winning for the first Time since December 2013 against Werder Bremen. In case of a victory, Hertha would be jumped in the table, at least up to the final Play on Sunday on court six. “This is quite a setback for us,” said Selke. “It feels like a defeat.”

Lazaro returned to yellow lock

Pal Dardai had changed his starting lineup only on one Position: Valentino Lazaro returned to his yellow lock in the back four and extruded Luke Klünter back to the Bank. Not only because of the lineup much reminded of the convincing appearance, it is Herthas a week ago in Mönchengladbach. A balanced duel of two table neighbours could be in the first half, no question. Hertha was clearly superior. “The performance of my team was not just exhilarating,” said Werder’s coach Florian Kohfeldt.

It was amazing with what is dominance and what is the self-understanding of the Berlin before the break occurred. “We played really, really well,” said Dardai. Up on a scene in the beginning of the phase, as Lazaro was able to pry the Bremen Milot Rashica the Ball just inside the penalty area by foot, took place in Werder, as well as not. Hertha on the other hand had some good scene, and almost always the former Bremen’s Davie Selke had his foot in the game. For the first Time promise to rank him the Ball at the time of acceptance from the air, the second Time he hit the post in the third attempt, he brought Hertha in the lead.

Selkes long bones to help for the guide

After a win the ball just behind the center line of the Berlin switched quickly. Salomon Kalou hesitated with his play, almost a bit too long, but with his long bones Selke brought the Ball under control, and to Bremen’s goalkeeper Jiri Pavlenka passing over the line. It was the sixth gate, the Herthas striker this year, was involved – no player in the Bundesliga is coming in 2019 with a more Torbeteiligungen.

Ondrej Duda almost a quarter had hour later in his 50. Duty game use for Hertha with a Selke. The Slovak came from 22 metres free kick over, got a hand to the Ball, cut to the wall and hit the crossbar. It rattled violently. In the light of 2:8 shots on goal Werder was lucky to break only with 0:1 back.

In the second half, the guests were far more challenging and moved the to Happen more in the Berlin half – real danger, but they are not developed. “Even if the Bremen had a lot of possession, you are not come to be dangerous in front of our goal,” said Valentino Lazaro. “We have kept off the balls a long way from our goal.”

Kohfeldt responded early and brought a good hour of Claudio Pizarro. “With him, our game is changing,” said Werder’s defender Sebastian Langkamp, who has played up a year ago for Hertha. The Bremen had a real target player up front, but they found the goal only once is rare. The flanks, with which it tried to Werder to the delight of Herthas reinforced, had fallen flat, just as ineffective as all the other offensive efforts.
