The 2012–13 Werder Bremen season was the club's 103rd season in its history. In 2012–13, the club participated in the Bundesliga, the top tier of German football; it is the club's 32nd consecutive season in this league, having been promoted from the 2. Bundesliga in 1981.
The club also took part in the 2012–13 edition of the DFB-Pokal, where it was knocked out by 3. Liga side Preußen Münster in the first round.[1]
Review and events
[edit]Werder Bremen presented Wiesenhof as its new shirt sponsor on 13 August 2012.[2] Supporters of the club were outraged over Wiesenhof's sponsorship of the club that several supporters have cancelled their membership in the club.[2] The conduct of Wiesenhof was reported in a documentary in Germany in 2011 where they have been "accused of treating the poultry in its care cruelly and keeping them in inhumane conditions".[2]
The club opened its Bundesliga campaign against Borussia Dortmund, the defending champions.[2] The final score was 2–1 in favour of Borussia Dortmund.[3]
