A Werder Bremen participant “took one” – or relatively three – for the staff in a Bundesliga conflict this afternoon.
Throughout an away conflict with Werder Bremen on Saturday afternoon, Marco Friedl obtained in the best way of a ferocious shot from Robert Andrich with the rating til tied at 1-1.
The ball hitting him within the nether areas, Friedl naturally went to floor the place he was then struck as soon as extra within the mid-section by Andrich as he tried to get a cross in.
Because the ball went out to the wing and the referee had already whistled to cease play, Andrich made it third time unfortunate by blasting it straight at Friedl’s toes.
