The match at the Kurtekotten Performance Centre kicks off at 14.00 CET behind closed doors. Werder Bremen are currently ninth in the FLYERALARM Women’s Bundesliga on nine points. The league meeting in the middle of October in Leverkusen ended in a 3-0 win for the Werkself Women.
The friendly rounds off an intensive week of training. The original plan was to hold a training camp on Gran Canaria but that was called off due to the coronavirus pandemic and the tightening of lockdown regulations. Instead, head coach Achim Feifel will prepare his players for the remaining ten league games with intensive and additional sessions at the Performance Centre and he will try and create a training camp atmosphere at Kurtekotten. Running drills and stamina training will be on the agenda in addition to the usual sessions. There are also two team activities planned to strengthen team spirit – as an online meeting to conform with the coronavirus regulations.
The winter timetable:
18-24 January: Intensive training in place of training camp
Sunday 24 January, 14.00 CET: Bayer 04 vs Werder Bremen, friendly
Sunday 7 February, 14.00 CET: TSG Hoffenheim vs Bayer 04, matchday 19 *
Sunday 14 February, 14.00 CET: MSV Duisburg vs Bayer 04, matchday 13
* As the last matchday in the FLYERALARM Women’s Bundesliga would have been in the FIFA registration period, the fixture list has been amended. That means matchday 19 comes before matchday 13.
“Diaby! Diaby! Diaby!” was the cry around the BayArena as the Werkself danced in front of the north stand following their 4-0 win over Union Berlin. Captain Edmond Tapsoba gave his new (and old) teammate a friendly shove forward to take in the acclaim from the fans. The returning Frenchman was typically reserved in thanking the supporters but was clearly emotional about what was happening.
