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: ‘It wasn’t our best day’

It has been a long time since feeling what it’s like to come away empty-handed. The last – and so far only – defeat of the season, in Elversberg, was two months ago. Since then, Bayer 04 have followed that up with seven wins and a draw. Now it has happened again away to TSG Hoffenheim. As the match progressed, the Werkself grew in confidence and “could even have scored the opening goal”, as Robert Andrich said after the game. In the end, it was the side from Sinsheim who sealed a 3–0 victory after “hectic closing stages” (kicker). The Werkself review.
