They were 2-0 up in the 21st minute after a superb counter attacking when Werner this time assisted the goal to Emil Forsberg who beats his defender to have an easy shot on goal. The two players once executed another great teamwork in the 44th minute when Forsberg once again past his defender which allows him to cross the ball to the waiting boots of Werner to score his second and make it 3-0. Stefan Bell manages to score a consolation goal for Mainz in the 74th minute when he headed a ball from a corner kick.
