Werder Bremen held to goalless draw in Bundesliga relegation play-off
Heidenheim held Werder Bremen, who were reduced to 10 men, to a 0-0 draw in the first leg of the Bundesliga relegation play-off.
Werder Bremen were held to a goalless draw by Heidenheim in the first leg of the Bundesliga relegation play-off on Thursday.
Bremen, who finished 16th in the Bundesliga thanks to a huge victory over Cologne on the final day, failed to make home advantage count at Weserstadion.
They will also be without an influential player for the second leg on Monday, with captain Niklas Moisander having received a red card in the 87th minute.
In a match of few opportunities, Fin Bartels forced the first save from Heidenheim goalkeeper Kevin Muller three minutes before Moisander's sending off, with Timo Beermann squandering a chance to win it for the visitors late on.
