Werder loses 1:2 for the third time in a row – also because a possible offside goal helps Union on the road to victory.
50th minute: The weak Malatini lets Aaronson outplay him. The ball lands at Vertessen, who hits the ball into the Bremen goal from twelve meters to make it 1-0. But at the moment of the shot, Union’s businessman Zetterer is close to the lens. From Bremen’s perspective, his passive offside position is therefore active. But neither referee Schlager nor the VAR intervene. The referee isn’t even sent to the monitor. Sky expert Didi Hamann: “It’s an absolute mystery to me.”

Werder keeper Michael Zetterer was annoyed and angry on “Sky” following the game: “He’s regarding 20 centimeters in front of me at the moment of the shot. What do we have the video assistant for? If he doesn’t intervene, then I have no idea…”
Werder anger because of an offside goal
After the final whistle, Schlager’s explanation: “At the moment of the shot, the goalkeeper has a clear view. There must be interference and the goalkeeper must be prevented from getting the ball. But that wasn’t the case because he was already on his way to the left corner and had a clear view. He wouldn’t have held the ball.”
Was Zetterer really already on his way into the corner without Kaufmann’s influence? It remains very doubtful. Bremen’s No.1 definitely feels irritated before the goal.

Coach Ole Werner: “For me it’s a relatively clear case. Maybe there’s a camera angle that will prove me wrong. Then I’ll be happy to revise that. But what I saw was a clear offside position and I think you have to see that when you have the opportunity to watch TV pictures.”
What remains astonishing is that no one from Bremer protested and alerted the referee to the alleged mistake.
Interesting: Union captain Christoph Trimmel is also surprised regarding the VAR: “He has to intervene in the end. Things are getting a bit out of hand. You have to change certain things.”
