Werder Bremen clearly lost the Bundesliga catch-up game against Eintracht Frankfurt with 0: 3. The players in individual criticism – with grades.
Jiri Pavlenka: Had a quiet evening for a long time because it was rarely requested. If so, the goalkeeper was there – as in the initial phase against Silva (11th). At the head of the Frankfurt striker later without a chance (60th). The same goes for 0: 2 (81st) and 0: 3 (90th). Note 3
Theodor Gebre Selassie: It wasn’t always easy on the right defense against the fast Frankfurters, and especially against Kostic, which became especially clear before the 0-1 when he let the Frankfurt flank far too easily. Grade 4
Milos Veljkovic: Returned to the team after a yellow card suspension. In central defense with a largely solid performance, won important duels on the ground and in the air and remained without major mistakes. Grade 3.5
Niklas Moisander: The captain avoided the risk in his actions, but nevertheless made several bad passes. Didn’t look good in the Frankfurt goal because he could have intervened against goal scorer Silva, just like Ilsankers 3-0. Grade 4.5
Marco Friedl (until 76.): Again preferred Augustinsson – and initially justified the trust again over long distances. Attackingly brave, with decent standards, but at 0-1 then too far away from Silva, which greatly clouded the good overall impression. Grade 3.5
Werder Bremen: Fin Bartels over-motivated and with difficulty
Kevin Vogt (until 83.): Moved between the two central defenders in possession of the ball in Frankfurt and gave Werder’s defensive stability initially due to his calm style of play. Clarified several times in situations that could have been really dangerous. Note 3
Maximilian Eggestein: It was an inconspicuous appearance by the 23-year-old, who worked a lot at the headquarters to ensure balance in the game. Found the gap aggressively but far too rarely. Grade 4
Davy Klaassen: Were taking full risk in the 15th minute when he finished, giving Werder the best chance before the break. Striking at first, involved in many combinations. Later dived more and more and made wrong decisions. Grade 4
Fin Bartels (until 61.): For the 33-year-old, it was the first starting eleven since his Achilles tendon tear, which he contracted in Dortmund 907 days ago. Started over motivated and saw the yellow card early. Overall, with great difficulty to find the game. Grade 4.5

Werder Bremen: Davie Selke emits too little goal danger
Davie Selke (until 61.): Was preferred to Sargent in the storm center. Worked tirelessly and was on the road a lot, but he didn’t radiate the risk of scoring too much because he got stuck too often. Best scene: Failed from an acute angle on Trapp (23rd). Grade 4.5
Yuya Osako (until 76.): Stand for the slightly damaged Rashica in the starting lineup and initially acted with a lot of clarity. Declined significantly in the course of the game and remained in front of the opposing goal even without a noteworthy scene. Grade 4
Josh Sargent (from 61.): Came for Selke and acted again enthusiastically, but without luck. Grade –
Milot Rashica (from 61.): After his injury from the Schalke game in an unusual role as a joker. No more accents. Grade –
Leonardo Bittencourt (from 76th): Most recently Werder’s man for the goals. Not this time. Even worse: just let Ilsanker run before 0-2. Grade –
Ludwig Augustinsson (from 76th): Replaced Friedl and should push forward again, but this no longer worked. Grade –
Nick Woltemade (from 83.): Kohfeldt’s last joker, which also no longer stung. Grade –

Werder Bremen: Lineup against Eintracht Frankfurt
Update (June 3, 2020, 7.30 p.m.): Now the lineups are there – and there are several big surprises: Milot Rashica and Leonardo Bittencourt are sitting on the bench! The starting eleven and everything else can be found in the live ticker for the game between Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt.
Bremen – The catch-up game is coming: Werder Bremen will play against Eintracht Frankfurt on Wednesday evening. This is how the formation of trainer Florian Kohfeldt could look like.
The season is slowly but surely coming to an end, and finally Florian Kohfeldt, coach of the SV Werder Bremen, a situation that he had actually wished for from the start: he made his personnel decisions, when assembling his Starting eleven ample choice of what to do before the catch up game Eintracht Frankfurt (Wednesday, 8.30 p.m., live ticker of the DeichStube) becomes particularly clear.
Not only that the 37-year-old now has significantly more healthy professionals available after cured injuries, no – they have also been convincing for a few weeks now with decent to good performances. “It is an advantage that those who play do not disappoint,” said Kohfeldt, who in his Starting formation Therefore, before the Werder game against Eintracht Frankfurt should not make too many changes.
Werder Bremen lineup: rotation or proven in starting eleven against Eintracht Frankfurt?
In the back line is a central defender Milos Veljkovic after a yellow card suspension, back into the team and Sebastian Langkamp back on the bench. On the left side also pushes Ludwig Augustinsson on his commitment, however, gave his opponent’s latest performances Marco Friedl not necessarily a reason for exchange, so that the Austrian should again be preferred to Sweden. On the other hand, Kohfeldt could also confidently rotate in this position given the tight timing of games, since Augustinsson is considered to be an enormously reliable professional who works immediately even after several weeks without practice.
The proven Bremen three-man midfield – Kevin Vogt in sixth place with Maximilian Eggestein and Davy Klaassen in eighth place – should remain unchanged compared to the 1-0 win at Schalke, which could theoretically also apply to the attack. The wingers Leonardo Bittencourt and Milot Rashica have reported fit again after their injuries from the Schalke game and should be set. Also Josh Sargent is available but could get a break from Kohfeldt. Davie Selke stands with Werder Bremen ready as a replacement.
This is how Werder Bremen’s line-up against Eintracht Frankfurt could look like.
