Werder Bremen win Friday's match of the 8th Bundesliga round. A goal from Austrian Marco Grüll made the difference in a 1-0 home win against Union Berlin.
In a match with few scoring chances, Werder Bremen needed an exploit from Grüll to secure their third win of the season. The 27-year-old dribbled his way into a finishing position in the 72nd minute and scored with a beautiful shot. Bremen are still without Isaac Schmidt through injury, while his Lausanne team-mate Cameron Puertas came on in the closing stages.
