Watch: Kade on his first Bundesliga brace

camera-photo

Full-time: Bremen 1-3 Augsburg

Augsburg get back to winning ways after an impressive away performance in Bremen. Baum's men got off to a fine start after MOTM-winner Kade's clinical brace, and although Schmid almost mounted a comeback for Bremen, a second-half Jakić tap-in sealed the three points for the visitors. The result means Augsburg are now just three points off the European places in the Bundesliga table, while Bremen drop to 15th.

Five minutes have been added on by the fourth official. Augsburg have almost sealed the three points.

Grüll rattles the post!

The Bremen forward unleashes a rasping shot from range which has Dahmen well beaten. Fortunately for the Augsburg stopper, the ball crashes against his post and rolls away to safety.
85'

Mbangula can't keep his cool

The Bremen forward works a yard of space inside the Augsburg box for a shooting opportunity after some fine footwork. However, he snatches at his shot, which is high and wide of Dahmen's goal.
83'

Time is running out for Bremen

The hosts haven't given up here, despite being two goals down. They continue to try and stretch the Augsburg backline, which has been solid throughout.
80'

Njinmah unlucky

The forward has a chance to get a header away and test Dahmen, but his shot hits a green shirt and trickles out of play. Bremen simply haven't had fortune on their side this afternoon.
77'

Nervy moments from Backhaus

An Augsburg corner comes in from the right, and at first glance, the Bremen stopper seems to have it all under control. However, he spills the catch and is very lucky no opposition forwards are nearby to capitalise.

Matsima's return is cut short

The defender is replaced by Schlotterbeck at the back, in what was his first start of 2026.

Jakić makes it three!

Just as Bremen find their way back into the game, Augsburg go right up the other end and restore their two-goal lead! Claude-Maurice curls in a lovely corner, which is flicked on by substitute Wolf, and tapped home at the back post by Jakić. Game over?

Schmid gets a goal back!

Augsburg partially clear the ball after a promising Bremen move, but it only goes as far as Deman at the edge of the box. He then back-heels the ball to Schmid, who scores from around 25 yards out. It was a powerful hit, but Dahmen got a hand to the ball and probably should have kept it out. Nevertheless, we have a game on our hands with around 25 or so minutes left!

Great stop from Backhaus!

Claude-Maurice is looking dangerous again on the counter. The forward cuts inside the Bremen box from the left, and looks to steer the ball into the far corner of the net. However, Backhaus does superbly to scurry to the left and make a sprawling save.
60'

30 minutes left

Bremen look more of a threat with Musah and Njinmah sprearheading their attack. However, with just half an hour left to play, Augsburg are standing strong, and if anything, look the more likely to score.

The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
The home side have created very little in front of goal today, with Njinmah's 1v1 being their best chance to score so far.

Goal for Bremen...or is it?

Njinmah thinks he has atoned for his earlier miss after heading home Deman's cross. However, the defender had strayed into an offside position, and as such, the goal is disallowed.

Njinmah should score!

What a chance for Bremen to get a goal back! Substitute Njinmah breaks forward and has a 1-1 opportunity against Dahmen. However, the Augsburg keeper spreads himself very well and makes a crucial save. How big could that be?

Second half begins!

Bremen have made a triple change at the break to try and turn the tide. Musah, Njinmah and Mbangula are all on for the second period.

Half-time: Bremen 0-2 Augsburg

Augsburg lead at the break after two clinical finishes from Kade. Bremen have had plenty of the ball, but simply haven't tested Dahmen enough thus far. The visitors, meanwhile, are currently just three points off eighth-placed Freiburg in the Bundesliga table...

Kade at the double!

Augsburg score again! That was all too easy for the Bavarian side. Giannoulis finds some space down the left and puts a hopeful cross into the Bremen box. Kade times his run to perfection and deftly flicks the ball into the corner of the net - virtually uncontested. Bremen have been poor defensively, and will need to improve to get anything from this one.

Bremen lacking in the final third

They've dominated the ball and looked comfortable in possession for the most part. However, the hosts are badly lacking end product when the ball gets into Augsburg's final third.

Gregoritsch heads over

Claude-Maurice whips in a cross from the left channel. He finds Gregoritsch in the centre of the Bremen area, but the veteran forward blazes his header well over the crossbar.

Early change for Augsburg

In a surprising move, Massengo makes way for Jakić after picking up a yellow card. It's a like-for-like change in the Augsburg midfield.

Dangerous corner

Puertas whips in a threatening corner from the right side, which Dahmen just about palms away. Moments later, the Augsburg keeper goes to the ground inside his own box, and is currently receiving treatment for an ankle injury.

Sucker punch for Bremen

The home side will feel hard done by to fall behind, having been the much better side in the opening 20 minutes. Since the goal, they've continued to dominate the ball and are patiently trying to unpick this stubborn Augsburg backline.

Visitors take the lead!

The move starts with a piece of Claude-Maurice magic, whose clever flick sets Augburg away on a fast counter. Gregoritsch then delicately threads the ball through to Kade inside the Bremen box, who keeps his composure to slot the ball into the right corner of the net. What a start!

Milošević!

Once again, Bremen aren't far away from taking the lead. Schmid does well down the left, laying the ball into the path of the onrushing Milošević ahead of him. The Serbian controls it well and pulls the trigger from the edge of the Augsburg box - but fires wide.

Pieper heads wide

The defender, not exactly known for his goalscoring prowess, gets his head to Puertas' deep free kick. He glances the ball towards the far post, but it's narrowly off target.

How can Bremen secure safety?

Should Thioune's charges beat Augsburg and St. Pauli fail to beat Mainz, or they draw vs. Augsburg, Pauli lose to Mainz and Wolfsburg fail to win in Freiburg, then the Green-Whites will secure another season of top flight football.

Daniel Thioune on motivation

"The primary goal was to stay in the league. If we look at our season like a boxing match, then we were really knocked out by St. Pauli a few weeks ago. Many thought we wouldn’t bounce back. That motivated us, and I think we’re currently in a good position."
camera-photo

Daniel Thioune on facing Augsburg

"When Manuel Baum came in, his first task was to reduce the number of goals Augsburg were conceding. In general, he's succeeded in doing that. I'm expecting them to defend deep, keep things tight and try to hit us on the break, the way they have in recent games. It's going to be a tough task, but one we're looking forward to."
camera-photo

Manuel Baum on facing Bremen

"It'd be great if we could end the season in the top half of the table. We're really looking forward to the trip to Bremen - it's a crucial game for them. We need to rise to the challenge and we've already made a few adjustments in training to prepare for what we're likely to face."
camera-photo

Almost there

With a six-point lead over 16th place, Bremen could potentially secure top-flight safety against Augsburg. A win would seal the deal if St. Pauli fail to beat Mainz. A draw would also suffice, as long as Pauli lose and Wolfsburg fail to win in Freiburg.

Safe for another year

Augsburg have already secured their spot in the top flight for next season, making it 16 consecutive years in the Bundesliga.
