Werder wrap up the points with a third goal. He's only been on the pitch for two minutes but Malatini has a debut goal, pouncing on Szalai's poor backpass and rounding Atubolu before tapping into an empty net.

Off the bar!
Second-half sub Bittencourt almost pulled off one of the goals of the season. Spotting Atubolu off his line, the Werder midfielder pings at goal from way out but is denied by the crossbar with the Freiburg 'keeper stranded. That would have been some goal but it remains 2-1 to the hosts.

Werder back in front
Ahead after nine minutes of the first-half, Werder need eight minutes of the second period to take the lead once more. Justin Njinmah is the scorer, cutting inside from the left and arrowing a shot into the near post from the edge of the box.

Half-time: Werder Bremen 2-2 Freiburg
It's been a tale of two penalties so far in Bremen, with Ducksch and then Grifo both converting from 12-yards so far. As a result, we go into the break with this very much in the balance still.
