WOB Wolfsburg Wolfsburg - SVW Bremen Werder Bremen

Majer is cautioned after approaching the referee.

Majer goes to ground in the penalty area after going shoulder to shoulder with Puertas, but the referee waves play on.

It goes from bad to worse for Wolfsburg. Jenz is shown a second yellow card for bringing down substitute Musah, halting a counter-attack.

Musah's first action is to concede a free-kick, but Eriksen fires over from just outside of the area.

What an introduction that would have been. The Wolfsburg captain takes aim but his powerful left-footed effort is blocked.

The Wolves make a further two changes, with Arnold and Daghim on for Souza and Mæhle.

Hecking reacts by bringing on Majer and Shiogai in place of Wind and Amoura.

That was Njinmah's first goal since Matchday 18. It was also his fifth of the campaign, meaning he's now just one away from his personal best (six goals in 2023/24).

Wimmer replaces Lindström as Wolfsburg look for new attacking ideas.

Amoura drives into the Bremen penalty area and takes the ball towards the byline. The Algerian shoots from a tight angle but his effort goes agonizingly wide. Wind was open in the six-yard box.

The Wolves work the ball excellently into a central position where Eriksen takes a shot from just outside of the area, but the Dane sees his effort blocked.

Backhaus denies Eriksen's knuckleball free-kick. That was an excellent save.

The ball falls to Amoura in an excellent position yards out from goal, but the Algerian takes a swing and a miss as he squanders an opportunity following Backhaus' punch clear.

From the resulting corner, Backhaus initiates a counter-attack which is halted by Jenz, who is shown the game's first yellow card.

Souza releases Amoura who makes an intelligent run in the channel. The Algerian forward then cuts back and clips a ball towards the far post, where it's headed behind for a corner, which is taken by Eriksen but doesn't amount to anything.

Wolfsburg work it well in central areas. Souza plays a reverse pass into a central position to find Amoura, who takes aim from just outside the area - it's blocked and Backhaus prevents the ball from going behind for a corner.

From Bremen's corner, which is cleared by Grabara, Wolfsburg engineer an excellent counter-attacking opportunity. Amoura drives forward before finding Mæhle who finds Wind inside, but his compatriot is unable to return the favour, putting too much power on his pass. That was promising.

Everyone, but the goalkeeper, is in Bremen's half as Wolfsburg control the opening exchanges, although they're unable to make use of their possession.

Wolfsburg get this relegation six-pointer under way!
