An exhausting away trip to Dortmund
The biggest stadium in Germany, 80,000 fans, two of the best teams in the Bundesliga facing each other and our Teens and Lions in the thick of it.
On matchday 23 our Teens and Lions once again accompanied our Werkself to show their full support in the tough away game at Dortmund. A tough task awaited our team but the Werkself could rely on the support of our youngest as ever. At 12.30 CET was time to head off to Dortmund.
We arrived at the stadium half an hour before kick-off ready to give the team the necessary additional motivation. Hope rose from time to time but unfortunately the Werkself lost 6-2 in the end in spite of the great support.
About an hour after the final whistle everybody, clearly disappointed by the result, set off home. There was reason to celebrate in the bus when the winners of the to game was sought, found and presented with great prizes. An overall exhausting trip to Dortmund then neared its end.

Werkself review: ‘We lacked the clinical edge’
“As far as mentality and determination are concerned, we have nothing to reproach ourselves for,” Robert Andrich said up after the first home defeat for the Werkself this term. In terms of their play, too, the Black and Reds put in a respectable performance for long stretches of this intense and physical match, outperforming VfB Stuttgart in most areas. It was only in terms of efficiency in front of goal that the Swabians had the edge over the Werkself. Head coach Carles Martínez wants to learn from this so that, in future, they can “win this sort of match too”. The Werkself review.
