Almeida 1-0

Naldo 2-0

Borowski 3-0

Klasnic 4-0

Rosenberg 5-0

Hunt 6-0

Huszti 6-1



Bremen demolished Hannover with 6-1

A second half blitz from Werder saw them defend second place and inflict a massive defeat on local rivals Hannover with a 6-1 thrashing.

It was the home side that scored the opener at the Weser Stadion with Portuguese striker Hugo Almeida scoring after 14 minutes. Naldo won possession in midfield and strode confidently forward through the Hannover defence. Faced with keeper Enke he squared the ball unselfishly to Almeida, who had an easy task to stroke the ball home.

The provider of the first goal then scored the second after 27 minutes to put the home side in control. Diego sent in a free kick from the right and Naldo got up ahead of Vinicius to nick the ball past Enke and into the net.

Thomas Schaaf’s side sealed the three points with a third goal after 73 minutes with midfielder Tim Borowski scoring in his final home game for Werder before his summer move to Bayern. Diego’s free kick saw Ismael and Lala get in each others way and Borowski took advantage to volley home from close range.

The second half then turned into a complete rout. Diego missed from the penalty spot on 80 minutes but in the follow up the Brazilian was able to get the ball back into the area where Ivan Klasnic rose to head home Werder’s fourth.

Two minutes later it was 5-0 with Markus Rosenberg latching onto a Klasnic pass before he prodded the ball home. Then on 87 substitutes Özil and Hunt combined well to score the sixth of the afternoon for the Green and Whites. Hunt applied the finishing touch to a move that completely by-passed the Hannover defence.

Into injury time, and Hannover scored a consolation goal through Szabolcs Huszti. The away side were awarded a penalty after Frings fouled Stajner, and the Hungarian saw his effort saved by Wiese, but he managed to head in the rebound.
