"Erik ten Hag's side looked to be on course for victory after Patrik Schick struck twice either side of USMNT star Malik Tillman's effort to open up a 3-1 lead following the sending off of Niklas Stark. The hosts rallied to set up a grandstand finish through Isaac Schmidt and Karim Coulibaly completed the fightback for the hosts at the Weserstadion in the fourth minute of stoppage time."
"Romano Schmid had kept Bremen in the game with a penalty late in the first half. Coulibaly had been at fault as Bremen grabbed the lead after five minutes. He gave the ball away in midfield and Nathan Tella raced to the byline to pull back for Schick to strike. They doubled the lead when a cross took a deflection and looped invitingly towards debutant Tillman, who controlled on his chest and calmly volleyed past Mio Backhaus."
