Hertha Berlin were denied a second successive victory as Werder Bremen fought back to earn a 1-1 draw in the German capital.
The hosts made an impressive start to the match when Valentin Stocker reacted quickest to a loose ball in the box to open the scoring with a powerful finish in the sixth minute.
Werder hit back when summer signing Anthony Ujah tapped in from close range after miscuing his initial header, but neither side could find the vital second goal after the break.
