With my boys I was determined to prove the opposite from day one. Erwin Kostedde, who had already played under me in Dortmund and Offenbach and never scored more goals for any other coach, repaid my faith with nine goals in twelve matches. My comeback as Werder coach ended with a convincing 4:2 win at Union Solingen, helped by one of Kostedde's goals, and was followed by a 6:0 at home to Alemannia Aachen.
