Mehmedi's team-mate Karim Guede agreed with 23-year-old, saying that Freibug must now focus on their next game with fellow relegation candidates Hamburger SV. Bremen's players, meanwhile, know they must improve after the defeat to Christian Streich's side plunged the Grün-Weißen back into the relegation mire. bundesliga.com rounds up the players' post-match thoughts...

Admir Mehmedi: Our last victory in Frankfurt was very important for our self-confidence. We're happy to have to the three points today as well, but we mustn't rest on our laurels.


Karim Guede: It was a very intense game and we were very disciplined. We were able to get the three points, but we have to focus on our next game in Hamburg. We have to stay focused and keep working hard.

SV Werder Bremen


Aaron Hunt: There are many reasons why we lost the game today. We played poorly, didn't press them enough - there was always something missing. We deserved to lose and it's a shame we weren't able to pick up where we left off against Stuttgart.

Cedrick Makiadi: Our game plan wasn't working in the first half. We were giving them far too much space. We wanted to improve in the second half, but Freiburg caught us no the counter-attack and scored two goals. They deserved to win.
