Bremen survive playoff drama to stay in Bundesliga on away goals

Bremen’s Ludwig Augustinsson is crowded by teammates after scoring in the game.

“We were dead so many times this year, we always came back,” he added after Bremen had only qualified for the relegation playoff on the last day of the season.“Every criticism was justified, but chapeau to the boys.” After Heidenheim conceded an own goal within just three minutes, their striker Tim Kleindienst equalised on 85 minutes to keep the hosts’ hopes alive.Replacement forward Fin Bartels beat the defence and set up Swedish defender Ludwig Augustinsson to fire home his first goal of the season and his team’s crucial second.

Bremen made a flying start when Heidenheim centreback Norman Theuerkauf gifted his former club an own goal after just three minutes. With the clock ticking down, Heidenheim drew level on 85 minutes when midfielder Tobias Mohr clattered the crossbar and Kleindienst tapped home the rebound before both teams scored in the dramatic closing stages.
