But in the 58th minute, Foyelner also went off injured.
He was stretchered straight off the field.
This scare prompted Klopp to make a quick substitution, taking Wang Shuo off.
It couldn't be helped. He was Dortmund's prized possession. 'If he gets injured, how are we supposed to take on Benfica?'
Then, in the 75th minute, Werder Bremen pulled a goal back.
In the final twenty-odd minutes, Schaff's team even came close to equalizing.
In the end, Dortmund scraped by with a 2-1 home victory over Werder Bremen.
Fortunately, after the match, the injuries to both Sven Bender and Foyelner turned out to be just scares.
Sven Bender, in particular, would not be affected for next Thursday's match.
Wang Shuo also used this match to break in his two upgraded Passive Skills.
This gave him even more confidence for the UEFA Europa League match next Thursday.
The German media was still in a heated debate.
