The recent DFB Pokal match between Bayer 04 Leverkusen (Wom) and Werder Bremen (Wom) ended in a narrow 0-1 victory for the visitors, Werder Bremen. A critical factor in Bremen's success was their ability to capitalize early in the match, with a goal scored at the 44:38 mark of the first half. This early lead allowed Bremen to take a more calculated approach in defending their narrow advantage.

Statistically, Bayer Leverkusen appeared more aggressive with 7 corner kicks compared to just 2 for Werder Bremen. However, Leverkusen’s inability to convert these set-piece opportunities into goals highlights a key shortcoming in their attacking execution. Additionally, Leverkusen's frequent offsides, totaling 5 versus Bremen's 1, disrupted their offensive rhythm and hindered their efforts to find an equalizer.

Discipline proved to be a challenge for both sides, evidenced by the seven total yellow cards handed out throughout the game. Leverkusen's four yellow cards, in particular, reflected their growing frustration as they struggled to break through Bremen's defense. On the other hand, Bremen also picked up three yellow cards but maintained composure in key defensive moments to secure the lead.

The absence of red cards suggests that, despite the number of cautions, both teams managed to avoid escalation into more severe disciplinary issues. Bremen’s effectiveness in preserving their lead under pressure, alongside calculated defensive work and Leverkusen's lack of finishing efficiency, ultimately defined the outcome of the match.
