Bobadilla earns Augsburg 3-2 win over Bremen

Raul Bobadilla struck in the last second of injury time to give Augsburg a 3-2 win yesterday and deny Werder Bremen an important point in its relegation fight.

Max Kruse hoped he’d won the game for Bremen when he tucked away a penalty in the 65th minute - after Martin Hinteregger’s clumsy challenge on Serge Gnabry - but Koo Ja-cheol equalised with around 10 minutes remaining and then crossed for Bobadilla to claim the winner.

Bremen had gone ahead against the run of play in the 26th when Theodor Gebre Selassie scored from close range, only for Jonathan Schmid to equalise for midtable Augsburg shortly after.

Only goal difference is keeping Bremen out of the relegation zone after starting the year with three straight defeats. Augsburg-W. Bremen ........................ 3-2 E. Frankfurt-Darmstadt ..................... 2-0
