Hard-fought win in Bremen sets tone for rest of season
The BVB players were clearly content at having picked up a hard-fought away win in Bremen, even if their post-match reactions were somewhat muted. You could see that the Black and Yellows were hardly jumping for joy following their Matchday 17 success, which sees them temporarily move up to fourth place in the Bundesliga table having leapfrogged Eintracht Frankfurt and Hertha BSC – who will reclaim fourth spot if they avoid defeat in Leverkusen on Sunday.
