BERLIN - Relieved Werder Bremen sealed their Bundesliga survival for next season on away goals, after a dramatic 2-2 draw at second-division Heidenheim in Monday's nerve-racking relegation/promotion play-off second leg with the crucial second goal scored in added time.
Bremen, who won the last of their four German league titles in 2003-04, preserve their record of the most seasons spent in the Bundesliga by any club while Heidenheim remain in the second tier. In the dying stages, Bremen defender Theodor Gebre Selassie then conceded a penalty when he fouled Heidenheim midfielder Tobias Mohr in the box.
With 10 minutes gone, a long-range shot by Bremen forward Milot Rashica had to be tipped over the crossbar by the Heidenheim goalkeeper.
