A Bundesliga classic at the Weser Stadium saw Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt play out a thrilling 3-3 draw. The away side took the lead early through a goal from Kalimuendo, but Werder Bremen hit back through Njinmah's strike before the break.

The second half was a rollercoaster, with Frankfurt regaining the lead through Collins, only for Werder to score two late goals from Stage and Milosevic to take the lead. However, in the dying moments, Knauff snatched a point for the visitors with a late equalizer.

The key to Werder Bremen's comeback was their ability to outshoot Frankfurt by a significant margin, registering 13 total shots compared to just 8 for the away side. They were also more clinical, with an expected goals of 1.96 compared to Frankfurt's 0.98. Werder's superior possession (60%) and pass accuracy (81%) allowed them to control the tempo and create more opportunities.

The tactical failure that cost Eintracht Frankfurt was their inability to maintain their defensive shape late in the game. Werder's two late goals came from well-worked attacking moves, exposing gaps in Frankfurt's backline. Knauff's late equalizer was also the result of some poor marking in the box. Frankfurt's four yellow cards also suggest an undisciplined performance.
