Ghanaian winger Christopher Antwi-Adjei netted a consolation goal for Bochum in their 4-1 loss to Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday afternoon.
Werder Bremen’s pre-match head-to-head advantage included 2 wins, 1 draw, and no losses against Bochum.
Antwi-Adjei entered the game in the 77th minute, replacing Maxmillian Wittek at the wohninvest WESERSTADION. He scored in the 85th minute, but his effort wasn’t enough to lift Bochum from their 16th place standing, which was solidified by Union Berlin’s late win over SC Freiburg.
Bochum now faces the threat of relegation after three years in the Bundesliga. They must compete in a relegation playoff against Fortuna Düsseldorf to secure their spot for next season.
Werder Bremen’s goals came from Marco Friedl in the 6th minute, Anthony Jung in the 78th, Jens Stage in the 80th, and Romano Schmid in the 88th. Antwi-Adjei’s goal was Bochum’s sole response.
This season, Antwi-Adjei has made 25 Bundesliga appearances, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
