Result and announcement
Werder Bremen beat Hamburger SV 3-1 at the Weserstadion on 3 February 2001. Claudio Pizarro scored twice, either side of Ailton's penalty, while Marek Heinz supplied Hamburg's only goal. The match was part of the twentieth round of the 2000/01 Bundesliga season.
Detail
Pizarro broke the deadlock in the 45th minute, sending Bremen into half-time 1-0 ahead. Heinz equalised in the 56th, but the visitors could not retain parity. Ailton converted a penalty in the 71st minute to restore Bremen's advantage, and Pizarro's second goal in the 89th made the final score 3-1.
Context and dates
The sequence separated two distinct Bremen leads: Hamburg answered the first but not the second. Pizarro accounted for two of the home side's three goals, while Ailton's spot kick was the go-ahead score after the equaliser. Thomas Schaaf coached Bremen opposite Frank Pagelsdorf, and the DFB records 31,526 spectators. The archive preserves the exact match day rather than treating this modern report as evidence of a new fixture.
