Niclas Fullkrug sets personal scoring record in Werder Bremen draw

Borussia Dortmund and Werder Bremen drew in the opening match of the fifth round of the German championship, with all the goals coming after half-time.

The match also saw German forward Niclas Fullkrug extend his scoring run to four consecutive Bundesliga appearances – a new personal record.

Fullkrug returned to Germany after unsuccessful attempts to establish himself in England and then Italy. His latest goal also made him the first Werder Bremen player to score in four successive Bundesliga matches since March 2019, when Max Kruse achieved the feat.

Werder Bremen will host Paderborn in their next Bundesliga fixture.
