Werder Bremen and Liverpool Getting Predictable

Predictably brilliant to watch that is. Seems like every weekend Werder Bremen serve up a multi-goal caserole for all to enjoy in the Bundelsiga, while Liverpool put together a last minute comeback cake in the Premier League.

Slightly odd cooking metaphors aside, they both did it again today:

Werder Bremen and Borussia Dortmund duked out a 3-3 draw at the Weserstadion, with all six goials coming in roughly the last half an hour and three goals in the last four minutes.

Dortmund led 2-1 in the 87th before a Claudio Pizarro brace looked to have won it 3-2 for Werder, only for Mohamed Zidan to level things deep into stoppage time. Incredible stuff.

Meanwhile a Fernando Torres-less Liverpool hosted Wigan at Anfield:

Despite twice going behind to Amr Zaki (who else?) strikes, Rafa Benitez’s claimed a dramatic 3-2 win thanks to Dirk Kuyt’s acrobatic 85th minute winner.

Here’s hoping for more pleasantly predictable action next week.
